Live Performance of 'Fire Woman' by The Cult at Grand Olympic Auditorium

Venue: Grand Olympic Auditorium Location: Los Angeles, California, United States Date: 2001

In the live recording of "Fire Woman" from January 1, 2001, at the Grand Olympic Auditorium in Los Angeles, The Cult was in the midst of their reunion phase, following a hiatus that had lasted most of the 1990s. Prior to this performance, they released the album "Beyond Good and Evil" in 2001, which marked their return to the music scene after nearly a decade. This album was significant as it showcased a harder rock sound while retaining their signature style. During this era, the band experienced a resurgence, gaining new fans while re-establishing their presence with long-time devotees. Notably, this performance features the classic lineup with Ian Astbury and Billy Duffy, emphasizing the dynamic energy of their live shows, which had been a hallmark of their career. The band's ability to successfully blend their past hits with new material was a vital aspect of their appeal during this time.
