Culture Club Rock Sydney in 2012 without drummer Jon Moss

Boy George and Culture Club Reuniting 2012

Boy George and Mikey Craig 2012.

Happy belated New Year everyone! Well, this just in. Back from Sydney and what a blast it was! The Resolution concert performed on NYE at Glebe Island, was a great sensation. Not only did we get to see Pet Shop Boys, Jamiroquai, and Pseudo Echo but the main event after the fabulous fire works was Culture Club with front man Boy George returning to the fold.

The band took the stage just after midnight and couldn’t have sounded better. One thing that was missing was Jon Moss. Jon apparently suffered a back injury and couldn’t make the show. I just have to wonder if Jon is going to somehow back out of the reunion. Not a lot is being said about his not being at the Dubai concert, which from youtube vids sounds amazing as well.

Will “Universal Love” be Culture Club’s official lead single from the untitled new album? Only time will tell, but at first listen which was the third song in at the NYE concert, our ears were very happy. It’s a cross between “Luxury and Heartache” and “Don’t Mind if I Do”.

Listen to “Universal Love” Live below:

So what do you think is Jon going to pull out of the Culture Club reunion? We hope not, it would be nice to see the band return to the top of the charts, with Boy George not smoking, his voice sounds very healthy again!

    I’ve always loved the music of Boy George and Culture Club so I was so excited about this. But then I listened to clips of it on youtube. I don’t understand how anyone can say George’s voice sounds healthy. He sounds so horribly off key and croaky. I think the problem is Jon Moss heard how George’s voice is now and it made him seriously ill. It sure makes me ill. It’s unlistenable. Better to stay home and listen to the old records and not this.
    Do you really believe George quit smoking? Probably another lie.
