  1. Omg I was floored when Robert came out with that top. The crowd around me was lame...they just stood there like "this isn't a single!" But I was beside myself! It was fan-fucking-tastic.

    1. I could not have said that any better. I also notice the "fans" did not know what to do when they played like cockatoos after pictures of you. I noticed the lot of them stood there dumbfounded. Good for us tho these two nights ranks as some of the best cure shows I've seen just disappointed that they ditched pornography catch and dressing up. Three more amazing songs.

  2. Wow... Like Cockatoos, Jupiter Crash, The Top, Kyoto Song... That's my kind of setlist for a summer Cure. Hope they go in that direction for their Montréal gig!
