    you know for a second i thought this thread was a joke cause i thought there is no way this group knows or cares about the cure...then i remembered that some of us are older and know better.
    i'll have to come back to which song is my fav...but for now i think you should put on some Japanese Whispers.
    some of the best acid i did was in a car i stole while enjoying Disintegration/Mixed Up...good times.

    The cure is friggin amazing! I flew over to Toronto last spring to see them (and in the fall, but they post poned it from the fall to the spring).

    @Lev: I'm pretty sure that video is older than I am :p (or early-mid 90s). That may or may not have been the style back then.

    I had pretty much the same reaction. I see the words "the cure" and think The Cure.

    That means that the Susan B. Komen Race For The Cure always throws me for a minute.

    So I thought this thread would be about, you know, the cure to...something. The cure for cancer. The cure for for boredom. The cure for your computer video problems. I didn't really think that finally I was actually reading something that was really about THE CURE.

    Yay. :D

    I was definitely into the whole goth/dark wave scene for a while, so The Cure has a very solid place in my history.

    Oh, by the way.... if you get the chance to see them play, do it! Its absolutely amazing. I was at the 4tour, and it was pretty much the original band.... and they didn't take a break between the start and 3 hours later (the break before the encore).

    I was quite impressed, considering Smith is older than my parents :O
