After the much-delayed 2007 tour, legendary act The Cure finally hit the stage of Madison Square Garden on June 20th [and Radio City Music Hall the following night.]
The show opened with "electronic-rock" band, 65daysofstatic at 8PM and The Cure promptly began their set at 9PM to a jam packed hard-sell venue. Concert-goers ranged from early fans now in their mid-adult years to teenagers decked out in gothic gear a la Robert Smith.
The setlist ranged from all of your old school favorites, b-sides and new material from their upcoming release. At 11PM, the band teased the crowd with their first of three finales until finally wrapping up just before Midnight. Robert Smith's voice was impeccable throughout their
3 hour, 35-song, 3-encore set. I've excitedly checked them off my list of bands to see before I die.
