Blue Öyster Cult Live Performance of Then Came the Last Days of May at The Emerald Queen Casino
At the time of the live performance captured in this recording on July 23, 2022, Blue Öyster Cult had recently released their studio album 'The Symbol Remains' in 2020, which marked their first album of new material in nearly two decades. This resurgence added a satisfying layer to their setlist, as fans witnessed a blend of classic tracks alongside fresh innovations. 'Then Came the Last Days of May', an older gem from their 1972 self-titled debut, showcases the band's enduring appeal, with its haunting lyrics and intricate melodies. Performing at the Emerald Queen Casino in Tacoma, the band not only celebrated their legacy but also demonstrated their remarkable ability to connect with fans, young and old. Interestingly, Blue Öyster Cult's music often weaves in elements of science fiction and horror, keeping the listener intrigued, and this performance was no exception.
