Saw them at Voodoo a few years ago. Pretty good if you wanna be dark and sad. Otherwise, skip it.

This is how I got mine in a better section than what was left from the original sale.
It’s thru Ticketmaster of course.

Always great live. This will be my 7th time seeing them. They're still at the top of their game live. I'd say their live game has only gotten better through the years. We'll be on the floor....come say hi!

Eta: first time I saw them was at the Southern Star Amphitheatre at Astroworld in 1986. Best day of my life.

Southern Star Amphitheatre at Astroworld

I've seen quiet a few good shows there. Crazy to think you could go to astroworld all day then catch the concert later.

Never been to a show at Smoothie King center. What's the floor like? I grabbed seats in 106 so my kid could see. At UNO the floor was always standing.

Oh, and did op ever get tickets?

Never saw a mosh pit for the Cure. Just pleasant swaying. This is a band I'd rather sit for anyway with a few drinks in me.

Taking the wife and son tonight. I've seen them every time they've come to NOLA since that mid 90s, and I'm looking forward to this one. Always a fantastic show.

Imagine my surprise when I show up and learn the The Twilight Sad was opening for them. I was quite excited.

The Cure sound absolutely excellent. Smith still sounds like he is in his 20s
