The Cure concert review
Le Bataclan in Paris, France
Wed, 06 Nov 1996

"My" Best concert ever of The Cure. Coming in Paris 20 years after their first appearance in the city of light, Robert Smith came on stage playing Subway Song and then saying those words : "Ce soir c'est l'histoire de The Cure" (Tonight this is The Cure's history). That night, the band played two songs of each albums, in chronological order. This was just amazing, even if I remember regretting the old days as they were playing "Club America". Thankfully they finished with the traditional "10:15 / Killing An (well are we allowed to quote the exact title of Albert Camus' book or is it forbidden nowadays?). Anyway, what a great concert !"My" Best concert ever of The Cure.
