The Cure on tour
Submitted by imaginary stella on June 22, 2007.Just read that The Cure have expanded their 2007 tour to include North America. They hit Seattle on October 8th (albeit at Key Arena).
I saw them at the Gorge years ago, and it's still one of the best shows I've ever seen (I swooned the moment I saw Robert walk on stage with those hastily-laced high-tops). They played an amazing career-spanning set, for nearly three hours -- including "Three Imaginary Boys." Here's to re-living that moment. Get out your black kohl eyeliner!

Last time I saw the Cure was right after Disintegration came out. I went not because the album was so great (I'm more of a Pornography / Seventeen Seconds / Faith guy m'self) but because they made a big stink about how this was it, they were done touring, they were finished as a band.
Here it is, 18 years later, and look who's still on tour.
Damn. EIGHTEEN YEARS LATER. I just read that again.

Seriously, I am so excited. There are very few bands I'd even consider seeing in an arena - the Cure is one of these exceptions.
