I've really been enjoying this. Took a few songs to get going (translation: they must've been from the last ten years cos I'd never heard any of them 
) but it's been great since they did 'Lovesong'. They did 'Push' earlier - they played that first time I saw them. Glastonbury 1986. Left school the day before and then had the most incredible weekend of my life up to that point. Watching The Cure through lazers and a lightning storm whilst off my fucking nut on black hash was one of many highlights.
Hope they do Primary and A Forest later. 100 Years would be good to hear live again too.

I was stoned in a tent near them, I could hear them - but I was stoned in a tent with a young lady

I don't remember Lloyd Cole and I think I would've gone to watch him. Gil Scott-Heron was utterly wonderful, mind. I'd never heard a single song by him before but was totally blown away by him. Half Man Half Biscuit were good, Psych Furs, too and The Pogues. We camped next to this dub tent who supplied us with some really fucking good squidgy black and tried to sell us some scales on the way out. And that's about all I can recall.

I remember seeing That Petrol Emotion, and Gil Scott Heron, can't remember who else I saw - I spent a lot of time wandering around stoned - only time I went to Glasto - despite being about 20 miles from there 
the time I eventually went, we drove up from Swansea.

Well I thoroughly enjoyed that. I'll have to listen to some of their later stuff, I think, as the couple of newer ones they did just before the encore were great. 'End' I think one of them was called. I sort of lost track of them after 'Disintegration' and the 3 hour gigs they did at Wembley which were meant to be their last. Sounds like they still had a few decent songs left in them though.
Good to hear '100 Years' live again. The hilariously bleak opening line still makes me laugh. "It doesn't matter if we all die", lol

That night at Glasto { I have attended 27 Glasto's to date } was a fantastic Cure performance and there was a massive thunder storm behind the stage which merged with the Lasers - by the way the Glasto ticket was £17.
I also saw them live at Reading on Friday night - it was only when I got back to the WBC Camp did I find out it was on BBC3 - I watched it again on catch up TV.
Never bothered with any other main acts as I was working but was happy to have the Friday night off as there was no way I was going to miss them.

Heh heh class! Yep He needs to drop the makeup and baggy clothes now. He must be pushing 50. I was amazed to see a couple of 'bob smith clones' in the audience. Didnt think there were any left now. Still, reminded me they have some top songs in their back catalogue.
