Fun with consequences - bit like this thread.
Heartbreaking story of home care in somerset
Get Carter
The soundtrack is as good as the film
The soundtrack may be good, but some of the faux geordie accents are hilarious
Get Carter done.
Now it’s Cool Hand Luke
Boiled eggs and car washing.
Ah , if I recall Robert Redford was pretty good in that film
Eek! Deadwood the Movie is on sky Atlantic Saturday night. Very excited. Hope it does the series justice.
Just started to watch The Cure Disintegration 30th Anniversary concert from the Sydney Opera House.
I watched it this morning. The first set just served to demonstrate why the unreleased stuff was unreleased and the B-sides were B-Sides. I saw them on the Disintegration tour at Wembley in 1989 and saw them do the trilogy show in Brussels in November 2002, so I’m a bit over the play the whole LP thing. They quite often play 5 or 6 songs from it anyway.
See what you mean so far about the unreleased/B side section.
I too went to the 89 concert at Wembley Arena which was excellent.
good call
enjoyed the intro section of B sides
I went to one of the The Top anniversary shows in London in 2014 and really enjoyed it, but first time I had seen them since Crystal Palace bowl in 1990
I was at one of those. The best gigs I’ve seen by The Cure since they more or less stopped releasing LPs was another at the Livid Festival in 2011 at the Sydney Opera House (31st May and 1 June). They played 3IB, 17 Seconds and Faith, and then encored with the associated singles and B-sides, Truly epic. Nothing to compare with the first time I saw them though. May 1st 1982 at the Hammersmith Odeon on the Pornography Tour. Unbelievable show, I’ve never experienced an atmosphere like it.
I was obsessed by Faith and Pornography in my early teens but the first time I got to see them was at Manchester Apollo in May 84 just before my 16th bd, but it was The Top tour and was a complete evening of WTF
I loved that tour, it was just mad. We went to Oxford and two nights in London IIRC. One of the blokes we were with lost a 8-hole Dr Martin in the ruckus when they played ‘Give Me It’ at one of the gigs. We found it after the gig on the opposite side of the venue. It had been laced up tight so his leg was in tatters but he was thrilled the boot survived.
My favourite ever year for gigs 1984. New Order, The Smiths, The Banshees, The Cocteaus and The Fall were all absolutely at their live peaks at that stage.
Jealous of all of those gigs in 1984. Mind you I did get to see the Pogues in 85 when they were at the top of their game.
