Cult: Live in L.A., The

Manny Rodriguez's direction of The Cult's concert was slick, fun, and it captured the anticipation of the fans, which makes it even more alive as it shows the true devotion of the group's following. An arena filled with adrenaline, pumped up with pure emotion and serving a platter of music fueled with passion, Los Angeles was the place to be and a part of The Cult's concert extravaganza! Including before and after scenes of the band and fans, The Cult's rockumentary was a creative, sentimental, and informative success that added a great sizzle to the concert as a whole.

Watching the crowd eagerly await their first glimpse, while relating to the songs with intensiveness and participation (including the famous Mosh Pit gathering and an unexpected fan who leaped onto the stage and did a flying head first dive back into it), makes this a sure-fire sign the concert began in rocking format! It's great to be able to listen and watch a band bring classic songs to life in front of an admiring crowd as they bring excitement and a feeling of satisfaction.

My personal likes include: "Star" (my all-time favorite), "She sells Sanctuary" (my second all-time favorite), "Rain," "Edie (Ciao Baby)," "Wild Flower," "Sweet Soul Sister," and "True Believers." Driven, powerful, and spiritual are The Cult and they put on a dynamic show! It's more than just enjoying the music; it's about celebrating it! There's a pretty famous actor who makes an appearance near the end. Hey, actors enjoy music, too!
