Official 930 Club The Cure at Merriweather 6-22 Thread

[hutch]

First perfect girl since 1990!

[bearman🐻]

Last night's setlist from Colorado is insane. 4 songs from Seventeen Seconds, and "Cold" and a "Strange Day". I realize the odds are low that I'll get to see all of those in the same show, but I would flip for that.

Not that it really matters much, but I will be at the concert!!! So stoked, because it's my first time seeing them in 12 years. I'll be in the lawn seats, which honestly is not a bad thing. The one time I saw the cure, I had press passes and got to be about only 2 feet from Robert Smith (yes I can post the crappy photos I took for my college's newspaper if you really want a good laugh). I think the experience was so much for my 18-year-old self that now at 30-going-on-31, I'm just like "woohoo, can't believe I got a pair of lawn tickets to the sold Cure concert!" All I ask is for is decent weather and to maybe hear "Charlotte Sometimes" (they didn't do it when I saw them last). The fact they've been playing "Burn" just makes me happy.

Yeah, kinda just looking for a way to get there from Bethesda
a neighbor is going, so I can get a ride back

[hutch]

I have emailed you privately about perhaps being a potential option for transporting you to MPP.

[walk,on,by]

so with ticketmaster and live nation, they usually not always, have rerelease of tickets within a week of most shows . . . but I am assuming ticketfly does not do that.  I have scored great seats to sold out shows, a few days before, or day of shows.  I would like to go to the cure, and I even like Merriweather, although getting to Nissan is easier, for me and I have to accept that I could go to stub hub the day before and see.  then I would actually have to go, and maybe get a hotel room because its so far, and then when to get there and drinking and such.

[Here's the thing]

I have three pit tickets for this show and can't go. The are $80 face, plus about $20 each in fees. I will move them to Ticket Exchange, but wanted to mention them here in case someone can use them. PM Me.
My third time missing The Cure. Seriously disappointed.

jez 32 songs on 6.10 in Chicago!

this 11 PM curfew is really making me mad

I really hope the twilight sad goes on at 7 sharp so the cure can hit the stage at 8pm
but I fear TD will go on at 8 and the cure won't go on until 9 and we'll only get a 2hour 20 song set!!!

this 11 PM curfew is really making me mad

People always refer to this "curfew ," yet I've seen multiple shows go past 11 at MPP.

I'm calling urban legend.

[hutch]

I asked if there is a curfew or not.. I did not see an answer...

I have heard there is but am not sure.. but keep in mind the Cure could play as much as 35 songs if they had no time constraint and wanted to do so... I just can't see them being given that much time!

I seem to recall a band that had to stop playing but just can't recall who it was...

I know the twilight sad has been getting rave reviews but  I don't even understand why the Cure has an opener.. when a band is playing 35 songs they are their own opener...

[hutch]

they're playing an interesting set tonight...

just launched into M!
