  3. It's funny how she says, "Is it September yet?" Sorry but you'll have to wait till October now!

    I agree with 7bluestars, best lineup 1989 with the fantasy being the same for me!

  5. my favorite Cure lineup, btw, btw would include Siouxsie Sioux and perhaps the Thin White Duke himself... fantasy, right?

    And what are the prevailing thoughts on Boris? I for one like his drumming, it felt maybe robotic and a tad uncreative (like compared with Jason, who uses bongos :X), but very consistent with the themes in the music. eh?
