New Order performed some of their classic hits along with some good old Joy Division tracks in Denver. Even without Peter Hook, the classic songs updated with drums and guitars rocked the house.

Red Rocks Winding Down
With fall now here, the leaves starting to turn and the first snowfall in the mountains, it's about time for Red Rocks concert season to wind down. With a few good shows still on the schedule, don't miss an opportunity to bundle up and catch some outdoor shows.

The Cult in Denver and Interview with Billy Duffy
Live in Denver earlier this month ...
I was pretty excited to go see The Cult earlier this month at the Ogden. The first concert I ever saw which was when I was in college happened to be The Cult in support of their Sonic Temple album. So it was kinda of like being back in college especially since the vast majority of folks at the Ogden were of similar age.
In support of a new album, Choice of Weapon, most of the fans there were just waiting to hear some the classic hits while enjoying some new tracks but it really didn't matter since we were all just excited to hear some good rock n roll. Like I overheard at the show when some one pretty much said that they only recognized a few good songs of Sonic Temple but so what. If Ian and the band want to just go out and milk the 'retro' thing, more power to them.

Interview conducted at Congress Theater, Chicago, IL, USA, June 1, 2012
By James Currie
The Cult are rock royalty. Billy Duffy has been co-piloting The Cult for almost 30 years. He and Ian Astbury are the driving shamanistic forces behind this amazing UK born band whose sound has never been pigeon holed to just one sound. This year marks the release of the bands 9th official studio album,Choice of Weapon. It's their hardest hitting record, closely resembling the classic Sonic Temple, in many ways including production values and writing styles, but still moving the band forward with a distinct sound that can only be described as The Cult.
I spoke with Billy Duffy about their almost 30 years together and the making of the new album.
JC: Hey Billy, how's it going today? Thank you for taking the time in talking with us and happy belated birthday! (May 12, 1961) Your birthday is the same as my brother's birthday so it's easy to remember.
BD: Is it? Thank you very much. Well I bet he's a great chap. (chuckles)
JC: He is for sure. Did you do anything special for it?
BD: I actually did. I went to England to watch a soccer match.
JC: Oh that's right, you're a big Manchester City fan. You even had their logo on one of your guitar picks (and current pick is the team's powder blue color). I guess it comes from being from there too right?
BD: Absolutely. It was the day after my birthday actually. It could have been the worst birthday of my life or the best one and it was nearly the worst with about 30 seconds away from disaster.
