Now, the 65-year-old singer has said that he will fire any bandmates who refuse to play the song live with him. They would have said: ‘Ooh you can’t say that, that’s too controversial, you can’t say this, you can’t say that’. That’s what I do with Culture Club, that’s what I do with all the people I work with. Culture Club are set to embark on a UK arena tour in December with ABC and Haircut 100. We’ll know by then if any recognisable version of Culture Club is left to play their fondly-remembered hits.
