Customer Reviews of Culture Club - Live at the Royal Albert Hall (20th Anniversary Concert)

ALL OR NONE ...
To me, liking Culture Club or Boy George is an all or none sort of thing: you either love them or hate them with no in between. <
> <
>Myself I guess I am in the former category - I have always liked the songs and the voice of Boy George. His sound is both smooth & craggy at the same time - unique in that sense. And yet his speaking voice so different, so deep. <
> <
>In a word I liked this DVD, I think the band never sounded better - George has never sounded better. There has always been a difference between the live sound of his voice and the CDs this is true but his voice here is very good in my mind. <
> <
>I thought Euan Morton did an outstanding job - liked him so much I ordered his own solo CD ... Lynn Paul - there are no words - I love that ballad. <
> <
>I think I like and admire George for standing up for what he is - love him or hate him - he is what he is and makes no bones about it. That takes courage, courage that most of us do not have. <
> <
>As for the Statue of Liberty get-up is what I have nicked named it - it is something else in the altogether but that is Boy George ... <

At Their Worst
I rented this DVD from Netflix and I'm glad I didn't buy it. <
>The concert starts off with this impersonator of George singing "Do You Really" and he is bad, I thought George would join in and sing it but this guy sings the entire song. He has no stage presence. Finally George comes out in this HIDEOUS outfit, rubber spikes on his head and checker patterned dress. I loved his outfits in the 80's but this was just distracting. The singing is just as bad. He sounds horse, he can't hit the high notes, he's out of breath, and he forgets when to start and when to stop singing in certain songs! My honest reaction was, "Is he on drugs?"Then this British singer comes out in the middle to sing this dreary ballad. It brings the concert to a screeching halt. It gives George a chance to change into a black suit, though he looks like a homeless person now, at least my eyes can rest. I've seen Culture Club in concert twice and had a great time, but this performance was just horrendous. <
>The interviews with George and John are good but what about Roy and Mikey? <
