They Have The Cure

Finally, the weekend is here. And I have been waiting for this specific weekend for well over a year. Friday and Saturday, Robert Smith leads The Cure through the IA area. If it is anything like the last concert I saw of them, it will be pre-'89 heavy. Maybe 5 songs from the 90s, then the rest a Cure fan's dream. Joe is hoping for "A Forest." I'll be happy with "The Hanging Garden." What am I saying, I'll be happy with anything. Check out the new single "The Only One" streaming on their website.

All Cats Are Grey (live)

5/9: DC @ Patriot Center
5/10: Philly @ Spectrum

To further the '80s enjoyment Saturday night, check out the best Smiths tribute band locally (Baltimore-based) and probably nationwide, Girlfriend In A Coma at The Khyber. Listen to their version of "This Charming Man" and see the performance of "Ask" below. The video quality isn't the best, but you get the idea.
