Hardly ever works live for me.

works best when it is a Mac solo gig imo (like it when Bunnymen play it too but
think it works best at solo gig).

Can't see Mac managing to even remember the lyrics to so many songs.


me too!! They were brilliant weren't they!!

The venue always helps Wabbit. But what a set list, delivered perfectly, and that last encore was incredible.

Can you believe The Cure got stick from a few so called music journos for those shows?!!
Said should keep it to a 90 minute greatest hits set!!! Called Simon Gallup a rockabilly bassist!!!!! Did do fair few from Disintegration but what an album and loved by fans. Did more than usual from The Top, The Head On The Door and Kiss Me....so maybe a bit of a workout for the next Trilogy, if so I can't wait!!

Ps. Nothing off Faith but apart from Primary, maybe because of the occasion, not fitting.
Another thing....ALL for charity, journos should be ashamed but hey what's new there! Great response from Robert Smith though!!

Trio? Thought they'd packed it in, used to love that 'Da Da Da' when I was about 12.

I prefer Rust live. I think it's one of these songs that gets a life of its own every time it's preformed.
