The cure. Forest . .. FORTY years ..

[SteveB]

Time had just gone.

You were born and then you live and then you die.

 

[dangermows]

Their finest moment.

 

[Ramshanker]

Fantastic tune

 

[Mantobar]

 

[jacko100]

Tune.

Seeing them for the first time in June, am beyond excited for it. Last of my bucket list bands that I’ve yet to see.

RIDE announced as support which just made it even better.

 

[Daydream Believer]

Chooooon!

 

[Cee Jay]

Not even the best track on the album....

M or Play for Today

 

[SteveB]

Their finest moment.

It's class like. Just sounds like a bunch of kids f***ing about with a few notes on the bass ....and a few simple guitar chords

 

[Lukas73]

Great song, always remember the 12” record cover scared me a bit....

 

[The Exile]

Still sounds fresh.

 

[The Great MES]

Their finest moment.

One of them

 

[Crayola-Kid]

Hyde Park was absolutely fantastic last summer - tempted to come back to the UK again for Glasgow this summer with Mogwai and Twilight Sad. So damn good...

 

[My Boy Harry]

Time had just gone.

You were born and then you live and then you die.

Utter class. Remember when they came out. My mate absolutely loved them

Probably saw they play at the Mayfair or city hall. Can’t remember now.

 

[alanturing]

The Cure..they just get better.

 

[RichDevoto]

Saw them at the City Hall supporting Siouxsie. Fat Bob did the Cure set then played guitar for the Banshees. Class night, although the City Hall was a shit all seater with miserable gets trying to get you to sit down. Much like the SoL in fact

 

[riffraff]

40 years! Oh ffs.
Saw em supported by the passions (I’m in love with a German fillum Star & Hunted) and The Associates (club country & party fears 2 & dozens more) in a Uni/College student union place in Newcastle in late 70s touring their first album.
Then at NCH touring 17Seconds supported by a fillum of a robot. We headed for the bar.

 

[Tex]

Saw them on The Top tour at NCH.

Spear of Destiny were playing the Mayfair the same night. Seeing as Spear were constantly on tour those days and had already been to the north east just a few months earlier hardly anyone (except @RichDevoto !) got tickets as we were all at the Cure. As we were leaving NCH (can’t remeber who the support was?) they were handing out free tickets for Spear so we all tramped down to the Mayfair and saw them too on the same night.

By the time of ‘The Top’ I must have rejected them for having the temerity to have hit records. Didn’t SoD give out free tickets a couple of times?

Aye you were the poster boy for Student Grant’s t shirt:

‘Blur - till lunch time’

I love that band
