Bethlehem on Sunday afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>The set list took me back to the 80\u2019s and the audience loved hearing their classic hits \u201cI\u2019ll Tumble 4 Ya\u201d and \u201cDo You Really Want to Hurt Me\u201d. \u00a0Some other fan favorites were \u201cBlack Money\u201d, \u201cDifferent Man\u201d, \u201cChurch of the Poison Mind\u201d and \u201cBitchface:.<\/p>\n<p>Boy George and the other three band members were backed up by a horn section, extra keyboards and guitar, percussion and a trio of singers.<\/p>\n<p>They performed two cover songs with full audience participation, the Rolling Stones \u201cYou Can\u2019t Always Get What You Want\u201d and a very moving \u201cPurple Rain\u201d by the iconic Prince.<\/p>\n<p>As much as the music was entertaining, so was George. \u00a0His sense of humor and British wit along with his colourful hats kept the audience wanting more. \u00a0The nearly 2 hour show ended and everyone knew there was one more song to be heard. \u00a0Culture Club returned to the stage for an encore performing their biggest hit, \u201cKarma Chameleon\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Now the show was over!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<div class='adkingprobanner sidebar banner3023'><a
