Curiosity Redux Thread

I love how they trot out this line as if it's a fresh concept and the Cure's lineup *doesn't* change every ten minutes.

PLEAAAASE!

I love how they trot out this line as if it's a fresh concept and the Cure's lineup *doesn't* change every ten minutes.

The previous line-up had been solid for almost ten years, that's longer than most bands' entire careers.

I still need addresses from:

Dr C
Petrowski
Flowersdie
Fortunate Hazel
Ian Reese Moraine
