Indoor Stadium, SINGAPORE -- Adding on to Reese's end of July thanks, I would like to thank my bro who harrassed me to buy tickets to The Cure (!!!!) only to bail at the last minute due to work. So what do I do with two free tickets to see them? Scream my lungs off when the opening bars to Pictures of You come on of course! Who cares if Robert Smith looks like the goth version of the Pilsbury doughboy with nest-like hair, the man can play a mean guitar! And when he sings "Yesterday I got so old, I felt like I could die.." the 70 year old gramps jumping up and down (not an exaggeration) in the audience could not agree less.

Great photos - makes me feel like I'm in on the fun!
thanks sandra! i think everyone should watch them once in their lives. it's pretty amazing how they're still so good after how many years. makes you wanna watch The Stones and see the Jagger in action!
That 70 year old gramps might actually have been Mick Jagger!
