My brother has been rigging lights and stage for bands and tours for 30 years. Rolling Stones. All of them. He says the two best live acts he ever heard were The Cure and Conway Twitty, both in the early 90's. Pretty remarkable.
that's awesome to hear! agreed, quite the contrast, but i'd definitely see both if i had the chance.
A friend who sees/knows every musician (Forbert calls him to talk about how hard parenting is, Margo Timmons calls to him from the stage) recently said that the BEST show heâs ever seen was a recent Dolly show. Wow.

That's an odd pairing, but I would have been down to sample both. I have a good friend who is a dyed-in-the-wool, obsessive metalhead. He saw The Cure on the Disintegration tour and still to this day says it's the best concert he's ever gone to. They are jaw-droppingly good and the addition of Reeves Gabrels to the lineup was a stroke of genius.
Serious artistry is hard to deny.
Also, I'm a lover of music in general, but Disintegration fed me for awhile too there in my late thirties. I wasn't new to the band but I guess the music was so meloncholicious and good and I was
in a place and it caught me up. I'll sing Plainsong at an open mic if someone knows it and plays the keys lol. With a spacey mix on the harmonica. What a thrill.

Yeah, we came with ponchos & umbrellas, but it never mustered up more than a light drizzle. We listened to most of their discography during the drive to Denver, and it's kind of reignited an obsession for me. It's neat to think that a band I latched onto at 13 years old can still wow.
Great to know it still excites!
We may have latched at the same time

Fantastic!
I was worried you might get rain for your show, but that might have made it even better.
I have been running through their entire catalog for the past week on my walks to and from work every day
Mornin' RPeeps!

It looks like we got a really close setlist to what they played for your show. Heavy on Head on the Door songs, which was great. It was also really unexpected to hear Disintegration (the song). Just an amazing concert.

I honestly don't think it could have been better. Rather than a few songs I wished they had played, I wouldn't have subtracted anything.
Robert Smith was as charming as advertised and the band was amazing.
Have a ball next week!

Those Canadians....lol. He knows how bad I dislike the Canadian geese. He's stuck in his house because Canada is on fire and he's apologizing....
Love that guy~
Good day, sir!
