Cypress Hill

• Cypress Hill

  There are certain bands with which you have to wonder if their unique selling point is going to be something that they’ll struggle with a little as they start to get a bit long in the tooth. I’m not talking about the Rolling Stones - they’re just a straightforward rock and roll band - but take blink-182 as an example; now that they’re all in their forties, married with kids, is there any real dignity and climbing up on stage night after night and delivering ninety minutes of toilet humour to those assembled? The same theory could very well apply to Cypress Hill’s stoner antics, although it apparently hasn’t slowed them down as time’s gone on; 'Black Sunday' feels like a long time ago now, but the South Gate outfit continue to pull in the crowds. The classics remain present and correct - "Dr. Greenthumb," "Hits from the Bong," "I Ain’t Goin’ Out Like That" - and, of course, the focus on weed is still heavy, to the point at which I’d suggest that you might feel rather detached from proceedings if you don’t indulge. Marijuana and Cypress Hill go together like The Flaming Lips and acid; when they delivered a storming set at Leeds Festival in 2010, B-Real even shared his blunt with the stage-side cameraman, to the crowd’s delight.

• Cypress Hill, record breaking icons of hip hop are one of the most globally exciting artists to see live and the demand to see this iconic quartet is absolutely huge. You only had to take one look at the momentous crowd gathered underneath the main stage at Reading festival, awaiting their arrival when the elusive act visited.

  There was no big fireworks or over the top video introduction, the band arrived onstage with enough bombast that they did not need anything else. The beats of 'Get 'Em Up' began and B-Real shouts out to the crowd to instantly raise their hands and start rocking along with the group. They quickly hype the audience to continue to sway along to 'Hand on the Pump' and 'How I Could Just Kill a Man'.

  The festival crowd begins to lose its collective mind as massive cult hits such as 'Insane in the Brain' and 'I Ain't Goin' Out Like That' begin to be played in quick succession and you realise how many huge rap/hip hop hits the group are responsible for. Cypress Hill are such a great festival act as their music and persona is able to enthuse a ten thousand strong crowd without the need for any tricks or gimmicks.

• Cypress Hill, despite having been in the music industry for what seems like an age (for hip hop groups) and despite continuing antics that should have perhaps long ended with the onset of maturity, are nonetheless one of the most current and fan favourite hip hop (with a unique blend of rap rock and psychedelic rock) bands around to date. This is only too obvious by the huge crowd that braved the mud at Reading festival in order to stand in a crowd of thousands, thousands of teenagers and stoners and old fans who didn’t quite understand the need for all the mud. The band’s following to this day is still huge and the crowd absolutely loved them. Old classics such as ‘Insane in the Brain’ and ‘Get Em Up’ shook the crowd into a frenzy and the band’s rap skills were as on form as they have ever been. There was no need for any tricks or gimmicks with Cypress Hill, as their songs and their passion say it all on stage.

• Had a great time seeing an listening to Cypress Hill at the show. They looked and sounded great musically and lyrically! The only issue was it seemed Madball was rushed and didn't really get to play many of their classic songs because of the time constraints and Cypress Hills intro before any of their music was even played was longer than Madballs while set! That was a shame because Madball really could've had an opportunity to showcase they're really good stuff and got the crowd even more pumped for Cypress Hill and likewise afforded Cypress Hills fans to a more diverse enjoyable musically crossover experience.

• Seen Cypress Hill live at festivals before, that we’re good, but this one was great. The best sounding venue for an all West Coast King lineup helped kickoff the night’s Friday night party. With Julio G on the ones and twos to Congas by B-Real and his homie keeping it fresh, the party was just getting started. Me and my girls are still buzzing from the night, and can’t wait to return to Microsoft theater for another event....

• I saw Cypress Hill 3 times back from around '93-'01, & they were unbelievably unbelievable!! I only love & worship them even more. Each & every time I saw 'em I got stoned righteously before every concert so I could see & hear the music exactly how it was meant to be heard. I loved 'em the first time I ever heard 'em & my love for 'em has only continued to grow & get even better as the years go by!!!!!

• Cypress Hill did not disappoint!! This is the first time I have seen them. I have been a fan for long time and just never got a chance to go. It was definitely on my bucket list and I am so glad I got to see them. I would highly recommend going if you have ever wanted to. I'll go back again next time they come around.

• The show was amazing despite there being very little or no moshing at all. I've seen Cypress Hill many times before and the crowd wasn't as hype as other times. Drinks prices are ridiculous at this particular venue. Regardless I would come see Cypress Hill again and again.
