The stage is set, the amps are humming, and tonight promises one of the most unforgettable rock shows of the summer as Blue Öyster Cult and El Monstero take over the Hollywood Casino Amphitheatre, presented by the legendary KSHE 95.
Doors open at 6:00 PM, with the show kicking off at 7:30 PM, and fans of all ages are invited to witness two powerhouse acts that represent both classic rock royalty and the deep musical roots of St. Louis.
🎸 Blue Öyster Cult: A Legacy Still Burning Bright
With over five decades of music, Blue Öyster Cult continues to deliver the same hypnotic riffs and chilling harmonies that defined a generation. From the hauntingly iconic “Don’t Fear the Reaper” to the anthemic “Burnin’ for You,” the band’s influence runs deep through the veins of hard rock, psychedelic, and progressive scenes.
Fresh off a string of sold-out shows celebrating their early catalog, BÖC’s current tour features their “Big 3” hits alongside deep cuts that die-hard fans crave. Vocalist and guitarist Eric Bloom recently joined the Midwest Mixtape Podcast to talk about their musical journey, touring with legends like Black Sabbath, and how the band’s sound evolved from Long Island clubs to global stages. Bloom also shared stories of his treasured 1968 Gibson SG, his deep love for baseball, and his appreciation for the band’s ongoing legacy.
🌈 El Monstero: The Spirit of Pink Floyd Lives On
Sharing the bill is El Monstero, a beloved St. Louis tribute to Pink Floyd that has grown into a spectacle all its own. Born in 1999 from the members of Stir, El Monstero has transformed from a local Thanksgiving gig into a full-scale production, complete with stunning visuals, soaring harmonies, and the immersive experience Pink Floyd fans live for.
The band boasts a supergroup lineup, including musicians from The Urge, Kingofthehill, and other influential regional acts. Their dedication to recreating the Floyd experience is matched only by their commitment to the St. Louis music community. Whether it’s “Comfortably Numb” or “Wish You Were Here,” El Monstero delivers it with authenticity, heart, and undeniable talent.
🎟️ Don’t Miss It
This is more than a concert — it’s a celebration of rock’s enduring legacy. Whether you’re a longtime BÖC fan or a St. Louis native who never misses an El Monstero show, tonight is your chance to see two iconic acts under one roof.
