Review: Boy George – 2024 Tour, The BayCare Sound, Clearwater, Florida – September 20, 2024. Culture Club – 1984 26th Annual Grammy Winner for Best New Artist. The Baycare Sound amphitheater is nestled in Coachman Park adjacent to Clearwater Harbor. My first-time visit gave me a peaceful feeling with its open walls and tent-like roof covering. Large ceiling fans delivered a tropical breeze to the audience below. A hum in the air grew louder as concertgoers chatted while strolling into the space. Some claimed spots far from the stage by laying blankets on the grass, while others meandered to their seats with happy laughter. The crowd was diverse, including Boomers, Gen Z and X, and also Millennials who grew up embracing 80’s music.
