    poor dave, he hardly does this either. on the last tour i think it was 1 show that he canceled due to laryngitis.

    DM is a good band but why do we have to have news updates on COF? This is a fansite for THE CURE after all.

    I think we have DM updates here and there b/c it gives us something to keep us busy until some great Cure Stuff surfaces.

    That and I believe quite a few Cure fans like DM.

    and this cite belongs to Craig and he can do anything he wants with it. he could do a segment on the mating habits of cave salamanders if he wanted to. i'm sure it's crossed his mind, in fact! :p

    His last cancellation was also just after a birthday... hmmmm. ;-)

    Anyway Craig, love the Mode updates. Keep 'em up and let me know if I can help in any way.

    I keep seeing the word "severe" when reading of Dave's unfortunate bout with gastroenteritis, so here's to hoping he makes a full recovery.
