    1. Speaking of Kisses, I wish they would come out with a raging The Kiss to open the show, Shiver & Shake in the middle, and Fight to close the set.

      Won't happen, and wouldn't change anything, but damn it would be cathartic!

    1. I've only just discovered them. Brilliant back catalogue. Brilliant current sounds and cracking live. A MUST SEE (full set) for 2017. Just as RS intended. For me The Twilight Sad have provided the un-released & rare tracks that I thought the cure were going to provide. In some ways I guess RS did serve up as advertised.
