What’s that you say? We didn’t really pay enough attention to the fact that one of the bands most important to our little night came up with their first new album in sixteen years? Indeed, a really very good album, at that!

You’re right — and in January we’re fixing this! On January 30th, we will celebrate the long career and the incredible 2024 renaissance of The Cure. We are going to be playing — and you are going to be dancing to! — the best bits of the Crawley boys’ back catalogue, from the hits to the album tracks to the B-sides! So start backcombing your hair already, make sure you have enough eyeshadow and some bright red lipstick to smear on the lower part of your face; this will be a big party!
(And, yes, it will also not be a 100% The Cure night — we are going to give you a lot of the other stuff that you also love to dance to!)

”I want the sky to fall in, I want lightning and thunder /
I want blood instead of rain, I want the world to make me wonder /
Want to walk on water, take a trip to the moon /
Oh, give me all this, and give me it soon
More drink, more dreams, more drugs /
More lust, more lies, more love”

Your humble hosts Avalon and Maxine will be supported by the inimitable Femme Fatale.
