[Music] The Cure

Did I mention I also shagged Wendy James? That’s here somewhere.

Friend of the stars me.

Can you tell me what I missed?

Can you tell me what I missed?

She was lovely. Totally mental.

and Katie Price? But Wendy was better

Katie Price was before she was famous. Wendy was getting pretty well known but this was before she appeared on kids TV with no drawers on.
Went stratospheric after that.

I used to play football with Robert. Bloody good little winger he was. Midfield dynamo.

March 1975 cup final, 15 year old winger Robert Smith is top row, far left.



Talented sod.

The Cure were Easy Cure a term for Euthanasia

And founder Easy Cure member Porl Thompson is now legally known as Pearl Thompson having also changed his name. I believe he now identifies as transgender which probably prompted the name change rather than any idolization or devotion to a specific poster on a certain football forum, but I could be wrong.

I think Pearl suits them

My name means Pearl and I have always used it

They’ve been immense forever.

The Cure in Hyde Park is on at DOYs next Thursday 11th at 8pm

I saw The Cure supporting Siouxsie and the Banshees at the Brighton Centre, Robert Smith was in both bands.
Banshees guitarist dropped out at the beginning of the tour, if I remember correctly.

Top rank suite minus the make up and spikey hair

I was at this gig at Meltdown (Festival Hall). Pleased to hear a blu-ray of it (and Hyde Park) is being released.

You have made me go & stick Disintegration on......no-one is getting any work out of me for the next 40 minutes.

I struggle with favourites because I like so many bands. But if I had a gun to my head, I'd pick The Cure.

My wife's favourite Cure song btw.

That was my distraction yesterday 'WFH', I let YouTube's algorithms take me on a musical journey and it eventually came up with that incredible album.

JD, New Order and The Cure, I couldn't live without them (not really, but I'm so glad two bunches of naturally talented teens got together in Crawley and Manchester).

The Smiths, The Jam, etc not far behind, imho.

The hours I spent trying to be as good as Simon Gallup on the bass. Alas, I was shite, but it was fun trying.
