Glastonbury slightly tragic after a certain age

[monkeytimesthree]

That's it.

I managed to get out of it The80s but not without losing my purse.

God, I’m loving the Cure.

He hasn't lost his voice like so many others. Love the Cure. I saw them at Crystal Palace Bowl many many years ago.

Loving The Cure. The musicality of the guitar playing and Robert Smith's voice is magical.

Bloody hell, I'm only five years away from 40 and not only do I go to festivals like Glastonbury, I'm probably in that band you dance to on the smaller (but equally as fun) stages at festivals like Glasto and IOW.

Shit, I'll have to tell the band I can't do Boomtown this year. A random Mumsnetter thinks it's "tragic" to enjoy big festivals over a certain age!

Also, half of us in the band would have to stay home next year as well.

Screw that, 30/40/50/60/70/80 who gives a shiny shite?

Everything is slightly tragic after a certain age. Who cares? Have fun while you can.

His voice really hasn't changed.

Bloody hell a quick Google tells me that concert was 29 years ago.

You wouldn't get me in a mosh pit for love or money! I've seen the war wounds this weekend.

He looks ridiculous with that hair though, & I bloody love him.

I saw The Cure at Hyde Park last year...got right to the front. At the grand old age of 55. Stick that up your arse OP

They are quite alternative and a bit rocky too. They were never on my radar much as a kid.

Were you wheeled up the front by a carer from the home, LaLa?

Love this song sooo much

medusawashere which band??
My first boyfriend is the CEO of Boomtown apparently

@PinkieTuscadero ooh yes, obvs
I'm down with the kids, me

Their playing is first rate isn't it?

His voice is incredible

This is totally shite - has he even spoken to the crowd yet?

The Cure were around before most of them were born.

Zero atmosphere

Hope they do Lullaby, my fav!

They are great. He does sound exactly the same as he did all those years ago.

He hasn't spoken to anyone yet.

stooriehoose I was there in 1995 too (what a great year)and saw both the cure and elastica. Elastica were on in the daytime. Unless they played twice. Happy days

I've ignored Glastonbury this year. Apart from checking when The Cure were on and tuning in just for that. I'm not disappointed. 👍

What's this instrument called?
