The Cure: Robert’s Birthday
Review
This by now is
the legendary mammoth concert done on Robert’s
birthday, this
day there was an earthquake, rain and a sold out to give us the longest concert
so far with 4 hours 16 minutes and the more songs ever played with 50, this
version was recorded by Rodrigo Labastida Bello, and for an open air, windy, rainy
conditions he did a marvelous job, about the performance in general is really
good the band was happy that day, anyway at the end of the show they sound a
little bit tired, Three imaginary boys and Fire
in Cairo were played
just by Robert on his electro acoustic guitar, from time to time
there are cuts between the songs to switch the MD, but in general almost
nothing of the music is lost.
