Just came across this article from someone who certainly does not appreciate The Cure as we do. Your thoughts?

QuoteAfter waiting for about three minutes for The Cure to start, I realize something: they've already started. The band has been playing for three whole minutes and I couldn't tell because they just sort of noodled their way into their first song—somewhere in the midst of a giant cloud of smoke and bright lights, the atmospheric sounds they were making were music. I genuinely thought they were soundchecking.
QuoteThe Cure then begins their second song and the band has made a HUGE mistake. They've started the first song over again by accident. That's what I think anyway, since it sounds exactly like the first one. But apparently, according to the applause of the massive crowd, I am mistaken. It is a new, completely different song.
