The Cureheads Vs Siouxsie & The Budgies
Advertisement
SIOUXSIE & THE BUDGIES
Sixty minutes of Siouxsie and the Banshees, delivered with the
ice and drama the originals demanded.
From the punk snarl of Hong Kong Garden through The Scream and
Juju to the gothic pop of Cities in Dust and Peek-a-Boo, the set
covers a band who invented an entire aesthetic and then kept
moving before anyone could copy it.
The pairing with The Cureheads is no accident. In the autumn of
1979 Robert Smith spent a tour playing guitar for both bands, and
came back to The Cure a changed writer. This double bill is built
on that crossover — two catalogues that shaped each other, in one
evening.
THE CUREHEADSThe original and longest-running tribute to The Cure, formed inLondon in 1990.In thirty-six years they have headlined the Wave-Gotik-Treffen inLeipzig, played CBGB in New York, Camden Palace, Razzmatazz inBarcelona and Dublin's Temple Bar, and appeared at the Isle ofWight Festival three times. In 2010 they played to 10,000 peopleat the Teatro Caupolicán in Santiago, broadcast live on Chileannational television. They have opened for Depeche Mode, Echo &The Bunnymen and The Pretenders.Fronted by the original vocalist of Nosferatu, this is a bandthat came up inside the scene it celebrates — not a covers actassembled from session players. Ninety minutes of The Cure, fromthe spiky early singles to the stadium years, played by peoplewho were there the first time round.
