  1. Hoodoo Gurus were great. I almost didn't go as I wasn't feeling too great & couldn't find anyone to go. It was a small theater show, pretty much sold out. No opener. They came out & did a solid hour & 45 minute set. 25 songs, many of them audience requests. It was nice going to a show & getting home before 11. Such a great band, criminally overlooked. It's rough for the Aussie bands. & they were LOUD! My ears are still ringing a little 2 days later. I've heard the newer material but not a real lot. It  all fit right in with the classics. Tour's almost over. The band has been going 42 years (with a 6 year break). Hopefully they'll make it back over here at some point.

  2. I was just writing it up. I was too tired yesterday as I had to get up early yesterday for a doctor appointment after getting home at midnight. The show was pretty good. I've seen them better but I chalk that up to it being night 2 of the tour & they didn't quite have the groove on. The new members were excellent with Liam Finn doing an entertaining solo opening set. Show was 2 hours on the button. Here's the setlist from setlist.fm. It looks like they're changing things nightly. PS: I go back with them to the first US tour.

    This was originally supposed to happen in 2020!

    I'm seeing them in 2 weeks. Bought tickets 9n 2020 originally. Probably going to be the last chance to see them in the US.

    My face value was $85 for second row of the upper section, about 2/3 of the way back from the stage.  Total was $110 after fees. I’ve never seen the Cure before, so this is like a bucket list thing for me and I’m really looking forward to it!

     

    Edit: And now Robert Smith says we’ll all be getting a $5 refund ($10 for those who bought lowest price tickets) because he convinced Ticketmaster the fees were too high.  What a guy!
