It was a very good concert from start to finish, even for the bands that played some songs I didn't know.

I saw The Cure a couple of years ago...maybe last year? I forget in Dallas. They were never on my radar, but my wife likes them. That said, I haven't heard any of their songs that I didn't really like. Just not into the goth stuff.

However, I really enjoyed the concert. There was one part where I was just totally lost in the wall of sound...can't say that happens much. I have to admit I really enjoyed that concert.

Previous to this I saw The (English) Beat and Adam Ant in Dallas. Was supposed to see The Alarm in Fort Worth but unfortunately Mike Peters cancer has come back so he couldn't travel and tour. Seen The Beat 4 or 5 times now.
