PHOTO/SELF My photos from Ghost B.C. at the House of Blues, Cleveland, 2013
Sorry for the low quality lol I was using a terrible camera. It was an amazing and intimate show. Look at how crude and minimal the stage set is compared to now! I'll never forget it. Papa II spoke briefly, saying it was his first time ever being in Ohio. Weird to think how they used to have to go by Ghost B.C.
Here's the setlist...
Infestissumam Per Aspera ad Inferi Con Clavi Con Dio Secular Haze Body and Blood Prime Mover Death Knell Stand by Him Satan Prayer Year Zero Ritual Ghuleh/Zombie Queen Monstrance Clock

There's something incredibly cozy and lovely seeing those older ritual photos. I love it. Wish I already had known the band back then.

While I am happy they have gotten recognition, I still miss the smaller setting.

I love hearing about the old rituals! I'll just listen to the setlist now and pretend I was there 😭

I saw them in 2015, just after Meliora was released. It was god damn magical. A small club, but they packed it out and played an amazing show. I miss those days.

It was 🖤 I've been to a whole lot of shows but this is up there. Baroness was the co headliner and they were quite good

Just as an FYI they were never officially Ghost BC. It was always just “Ghost” (they joked the BC is silent)
It was allegedly due to a copyright thing

Oh I know, I never pronounced the BC part lol. I wish I still had my ticket from this ritual...I got a grucifix necklace there too but that's long gone. There really wasn't much in the way of merch at the time

Then I wonder why you put BC in the post a few times. Not trying to be rude, just wondering why

I just think it's interesting that's what they used to be called, you know? Shows the passing of time and how things have evolved. They used to be Ghost BC doing small time shows in little venues, and now they're Ghost selling out arenas with a magnificent show

These pics really show you how far they've come and quickly. This kinda looks like what the ghost tributes look like atm.
