The Cure

Saw The Cure live the other day and I have to say, they can bring it. Robert Smith was not feeling well but he sucked it up and did the entire show. Not many of the new kids today would do that but he's a pro and that's why they are still packing auditoriums. It was fun to see the 40 somethings in their loafers and polo shirts next to the young goths and both having the same good time (aside from a few askance glances that seemed to say "wow, that's not me man" from both sides) everyone got along just fine.

In fact, the dude behind us, a 45 year old businessman brought his teenage daughter and her friends and they all knew the words and sang with great gusto. I have to think that this was one of the few times in their current lives that they do the same thing together and both enjoy it. Nice to see actually.
