Last night the Cure performed at Toyota Center and received a whole lotta love. ToyotaCenter thecure
Photo by Violeta Alvarezcould just as easily been asked about the attire worn throughout the Toyota Center concourse on Friday night for The Cure.
Robert Smith, 64, the founder and frontman, seemed, at times, almost giddy, occasionally dancing and skipping around the stage like a man a third his age. Perhaps more impressively, his voice showed absolutely no wear whatsoever for someone who has been performing for over 40 years. His moody, affected vocals found every note and seemed to get stronger as the show, almost three hours long, rolled towards its ultimate conclusion.
And they provided plenty of those for fans on this, just the second date on their U.S. tour. They mixed songs from their upcoming releaseSeventeen Seconds The Cure are known for their long, drawn out song intros, which are even longer live. Smith often drifted around the stage while the band vamped behind him. They ping-ponged back and forth between stretched, densely layered beds of music and short, tight pop songs. Yet, it didn't feel like whiplash. Instead, the pace was a slow burn, dropping in short energetic hits amongst the set to keep anyone from losing focus, even as they highlighted material that has yet to be released.
