I find it hard to even get excited about going to see a band like The Cure who I love and who are still recording (IMO) artistically honest music...do the kids flocking to these HC reunions not have any idea of the cultural context of these bands? they should be going to their local awful-sounding basement shows if they want to be a part of something similar, but i guess hindsight is 20/20...*sigh* <br /><br />not trying to bash the blogger here for giving COC a chance, I've just grown really frustrated with this overwhelming trend of reunion shows and bands playing their old records front to back or whatever. bands don't do that when the albums are released, so why do it 25 years after the fact?Scott Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10965947849029108104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4508509738815600752.post-72023704250557634912011-10-28T06:09:31.627-07:002011-10-28T06:09:31.627-07:00a 4 tracks demo from 1985???????

I've ...Wow, I couldn't agree with you more. I've been seeing these guys since their second show. It's hard to forgive their musical "career" by the time Simon Bob joined and after.They're ok guys and all but it is nowhere what they usta be...like a nuclear blast right in your face, making other bands look like shit. But, I've never been a fan of bands that get back together to play the hits and slide in some new songs that are too similiar to the songs that actual made them popular after the good stuff.E.
