The band is one of the pioneering bands in heavy metal music, both for its hard-edged musical assault and its use of sci-fi and occult imagery and subject matter. BLUE OYSTER CULT has sold over 14 million albums worldwide and was listed in VH1’s countdown of the greatest hard rock bands of all time.

Opening the show will be Foghat. Originally a British rock quartet, FOGHAT, settled in New York and specialized in a simple, hard-rocking blues-rock, releasing a series of best-selling albums in the mid-'70s.

While the group never deviated from their basic boogie, they retained a large audience selling out concerts across America and earning several gold and platinum albums.

Today, FOGHAT continues to be one of the most recognized bands touring with hits including, “Slow Ride,” “Fool For The City,” “Mumbo Jumbo,” “I Just Want To Make Love To You,” and “Drivin’ Wheel”…many of which are still classic rock radio staples.
