I hope you went out smiling like a child, into the cool remnant of a dream.

I am keen - I cant believe they have been going for 40 fucking years. Ments.
I have bought child 2 a big fuck off stacking hi fi for Christmas this year and five cure albums on vinyl - he loves 'em.

That is a fucking ace line up. Seriously thinking of this. The last band on my list of still going, I haven't seen.
Just had another look. Yes, a great line up. Nice to see Interpol 2nd. Great band

Re: The Cure - Hyde Park 40th Anniversary Concert
I couldn't do a big stadium gig ever again.. I don't give a toss who's playing , it's not for me.
Most reviews I read about gigs at Hyde park say it's far too quiet...poor sound
Ticket prices a joke, getting in and out the same. Huge queues for bar and toilets then shit sound quality.
Re: The Cure - Hyde Park 40th Anniversary Concert
Google sound quality Hyde park and you'll see.
Complaints go way back and continue to this summer.
There was even an article in the nme asking if the place is fit for purpose

I saw Stevie Wonder in Hyde Park and the sound quality was really good.
I've worked in hi-fi and commercial sound for most of my life, but I was quite squiffy.
My 2p.

I think I'd moan at every opportunity
Unless I was pilled off me tits and that ain't happening no more

Not a big fan of robert smith et al; I prefer the vaccines tbh. I was always brought up to believe that prevention is better than the cure.

Re: The Cure - Hyde Park 40th Anniversary Concert
I like the Cure. My wife likes them more, she saw them at Glasto before it was called Glasto and the BBC stroked them selves off about it every year ad infinitum..
Might do this if she's up for it. Cheers.

Ain't that the truth - I've seen a number of sites offering general admin tickets at £200+ (mine cost £73.05 including all fees)

There are ethical fan sharing sites aint there - bands try and persuade fans to use them but people want to make a buck.
Personally i was put off by the £73 price let alone £200 +

A mates just asked me to go see Weller at Leeds arena with him. I tried to say no but he's just coming off the back of a bad do... throat cancer and all his teeth removed .. so I've got to say yes now
Fifty quid a bastard ticket.. goes hugely against the grain. And I've got buy his cos he's not worked for 6 months.. good job I love him
