I was at the concert that Neil did at the Greek in 2012. Probably the best concert I have ever been at. Saw him a few years later at the Hollywood Bowel too. What a great performer. Him singing Happy Birthday to his Mom is the crowd was an added plus.

A good theme

1982? In Philadelphia. He played “Forever in Blue Jeans” at least twice, maybe 3 times.

The Cure in the late eighties in Milan.

The Cure - Arena Civica, Milano, Italy, 8 jun 1989 Also, the last Nirvana Concert in Italy before KK took his own life is worth a mention.

. . . in '78 and '81 were the same. Nightmarish experiences with crowds surging, dehydration, pushing and shoving. Please share your experience with The Cure again in our weekly thread along with the watch on your wrist today. Best, Art

Looking forward to it Art …
