It was Simon,a new drummer (I think),and some new (?) guy. Oh,and Robert Smith.
Seriously,I've never bothered learning any of their names because what's the point? They're going to be rotated out sooner rather than later.

It was a great show,I was surprised they did stuff like Fire in Cairo and Jumping Someone Else's Train.


Also,I was only 7 years old in 1987 so I missed that tour. This was actually the first time I've seen them,but I'd probably go again if they come around again.

OK,according to my girlfriend,(the Cure for her is like Godzilla for us) the current lineup is:
Jason Cooper-drums
Porl Thompson-guitar
Simon Gallup-bass

[Robert Saint John]

Amazing to see Porl and Simon still around! Thanks guys! Looks like they're playing in San Jose at the end of the month. Tickets will easily be around $100 each (that's how much Duran Duran was last week). Hope that tax rebate comes in this week!

Hm, they'll be in Charlotte on June 16th, but it's $34.50 for the cheapest ticket (I'm assuming lawn seats) and more than $50 for anything better. As a terminally poor college student, that'll be a sound maybe for me. I'd love to see them though.

I saw them at the Download Festival last year (in Mountain View). They played a very long set as well, throwing in lots of random, unexpected songs throughout, however Robert Smith kept forgetting the lyrics to half the songs. It was odd.
