Cure have had 13 official members, I think. Not that it matters. Sounds like the two bands get on, which is for the best. Inter-band rivalry is boring!

Especially as we now have actual band rivalry.

Sorry to revive all this crap again but The Cure were on the radio yesterday and it reminded me of this thread and how lacking in logic Fat Bobs comments were. You'd have to say that The Cure were hardly innovative in what they did, never really pushed any boundaries, wheras New Order were. They both enjoyed huge success either way but I cannot imagine New Order hearing any Cure songs and wanting to imitate it wheras Fat Bob and his sticky up haired mates must have heard New Order and thought, fuck me, thats different.

You would think that Robert Smith would have out grown that Jo Brand look which he has been sporting since the mid '80s, he actually looks pretty scary nowadays but I think were a decent band and they had a unique sound in their day..
He must be a bit of a tyrant though with all those ex-members knocking about..

I remember reading a long time ago that in actual fact The Cures' recording contract isnt a band contract at all. Smith has the contract with the recording company and then the other members of the group are sort of employed by him. It could be quite a common practice for all I know but its sounded kind of strange at the time.

Nobody owes anything to anyone.

Reminds me of an interview that Stephen Morris did with Swedish music magazine Slitz back in 1988. I can't remember the exact quote, but it was something like: "I'm not bitter, but we could put on the latest Cure album to see how many New Order covers we can spot".

Each to their own. You can never accuse The Cure of doing short gigs though.

Imagine if N.Order did a 34 song, 160 minute show like The Cure. We might be all bored. But consider it.

Elegia / Crystal / Regret / Touched By The Hand Of God / Love Vigilantes / Age of Consent / World / Here To Stay / Round & Round / Waiting For The Sirens Call / 1963 / Krafty / Thieves Like Us / Your Silent Face / Confusion / Shellshock / Subculture /
True Faith / 586 - Everythings Gone Green - Out Of Control - Temptation / The Perfect Kiss / Blue Monday /

ENC : Ruined In A Day / Run / Fine Time / World In Motion

ENC2 - Ceremony / Isolation / Transmission / Love Will Tear Us Apart / In A Lonely Place

Couldn't knock that!

Fat Bob certainly looked bored. And he wasnt the only one.
