Blue Oyster Cult FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE APRIL 7, 2009 BOULEVARD CASINO PRESENTS BLUE OYSTER CULT LIVE AT THE RED ROBINSON SHOW THEATRE FRIDAY, OCTOBER 23 Coquitlam, BC – For nearly four decades, Blue Oyster Cult has been thrilling fans of hard rock worldwide with powerful albums loaded with classic songs. The Long Island, New York-based band occupies a unique place in rock history because it’s one of very few hard rock/heavy metal bands to earn both genuine mainstream critical acclaim as well as commercial success. Upon the release of their self-titled album in 1972, Blue Oyster Cult was praised for its catchy-yet-heavy music and lyrics that could be provocative, terrifying, funny or ambiguous … often all in the same song. Their hits include the truly haunting “(Don’t Fear) The Reaper” from 1976’s Agents of Fortune, the pummeling “Godzilla” from 1977’s Spectres and the hypnotically melodic “Burnin’ for You” from 1981’s Fire of Unknown Origin. Other notable songs include “Cities on Flame with Rock and Roll,” “Then Came the Last Days of May,” “I Love the Night,” “In Thee,” “Veteran of the Psychic Wars,” “Dominance and Submission,” “Astronomy,” “Black Blade” and “Shooting Shark.” The band is still going strong today maintaining a relentless touring schedule and bringing new songs and classics to original fans. The current line-up features original members Eric Bloom and Buck Dharma along with Richie Castellano, Jules Radino and Rudy Sarzo. Blue Oyster Cult will be making their debut at Boulevard Casino’s Red Robinson Show Theatre in October.

  • "Buck Dharma" Roeser
    Donald Brian "Buck Dharma" Roeser An American guitarist and songwriter, best known for being a member of Blue Öyster Cult since the group's formation in 1967. He wrote and sang the lead vocal on many of the band's best- known hits, including "(Don't Fear) The Reaper", "Godzilla", and "Burnin' for You" (the last originally intended for Roeser's solo album). Roeser was born on Long Island, New York. His father was an accomplished jazz saxophonist, and Roeser spent a lot of time listening to jazz music as a result. Because of this, Roeser developed an interest in the melodic arts at a very early age. He even played the accordion for a brief period of time.[1] Roeser was influenced greatly by the British Invasion of 1964, and he decided to pursue rock n' roll music. He first started out playing the drums, but had to stop temporarily after breaking his wrist while playing basketball. While recovering, Roeser learned to play guitar, and found that he enjoyed it more than the drums. During his high school years, Roeser played guitar in various cover bands. At this time, he started to develop his own signature sound by imitating his favorite guitarists and combining their sounds with his own style. Roeser attended Clarkson College in New York, and joined a band that included later bandmate Albert Bouchard. The two played together on and off during the rest of their college career. At the end, both musicians abandoned potential degrees (Roeser's in Chemical Engineering), and decided to pursue music full-time.

"Propeller" also marks the return of Tobin Sprout to the GBV fold, along with an increased songwriting presence. "Propeller" is a hell of a ride, and remains one of the most important albums in the band's discography.
