Entirely venue dependent. Red rocks is on there for example, there is no GA. it will likely be further back rows. But a woodlands type amphitheater, it would be lawn/GA.
In an arena, it would NOT be GA/floor, it would be higher up seats.

What I meant to get across is that GA is not consistent with either being close or far. It is close in an arena, but far at an amphitheater. Some shows are all GA, some have none.

Cheap tickets on a deal like this, I assume, will be far, regardless of the venue, unless of course it's 100% GA.

Just got to NOLA for opening night Cure show. ACL lineup is great, just sucks how many artists are Weekend exlusive. Not going to W1 this year because of Power Trip so W2 it is, will miss The Walkmen and Mars Volta but I saw them at Shaky Knees this past weekend ... but I am sure I will miss a Walkmen late night show :/

The Cure was so great. $25 t-shirts, $50 hoodie, $30 city poster. Best merch prices of any arena act.

Livestream of the entire concert. Robert Smith hasn't lost a bit of his voice.

The Twilight Sad is opening tomorrow. I believe they come on around 7. I'll be in Houston and Dallas (weather permitting). Can't wait.

Are you using your camera phone on all the videos on your IG? Some of those Metallica ones are incredible. And how do you manage to get on the rail for all of these huge acts??

Yeah all phone. i was using an iphone 12 pro from 2021 up to december of last year, recently switched to the 14 pro and i like the zoom better, then i just lower the exposure to get a clearer video. Choose the 4k 60fps option so it eats up storage lol

Anyone else pulling a Cure/Killers doubleheader at Toyota this weekend (assuming Killers actually happens this time, which is a HUGE assumption at this point)?

If anyone goes to Dallas do get the poster. One of the best ones on the tour. The Houston poster was ok. Austin is cool but Dallas got the better out of the 3.

Was at Houston last night as well

was talking to friend about how those who are listening to mainstream radio Cure wouldnt know a lot of the songs played in the middle but those who listen to Wish Disentagration and the earlier stuff were not disappointed at all.

Those who know the Cure from only radio airplay would love the last 30 minutes of a strong 2:45 plus show
Most of the main stream hits were at the end except for Pictures of You and Lovesong (which had a different sound it seemed then what i am used to)

Really enjoyed the concert...quite a few songs that i remembered loving in my early days but hadnt heard in years

MIssed the opening act...what were their sound?


Only issue i had was speaker in back where we were located had a reverberation that occured quite frequently


I will simply put it this way...made my decision a lot easier to get Depeche Mode tickets in October , just a matter of which location



LOng shot but if anyone has tickets for tampa on June 29th I am in orlando and would come in a heartbeat to see the show

The Cure was incredible. My ONLY complaint is that there wasn't a single song played off "Bloodflowers" which is my second favorite album of theirs. Weird that they would do the entire album for that Trilogy performance and then shelve the whole thing.

Face lawns are available on Live Nation right now for anybody looking last minute. Can't wait for round 2.

Last night was my 8th time seeing them I think and it was the best experience I've ever had at one of their shows. Had a lawn ticket which was more packed than I've ever seen it but hopped on the Live Nation app at 5:58 pm and snagged a single 9th row center which is the closest I've been to see them. What an absolute game changer. The band sounds as good as ever and the lights and visuals were stellar.

Again my only complaint is that they didn't play anything off "Bloodflowers" for the second night in a row and they teased "Last Day of Summer" for a good three minutes or so before aborting it. I was very tempted to go to Austin tonight and checked TM around 3 today and another 9th row floor seat was available but then I realized last night would be impossible to top. Robert Smith is such a freaking legend.

My buddy found the artist's website who did the poster last night and bought one at 10 am today and sent me the link. By the time I tried at 11 am they were sold out. Only $40. I go to ebay and see some jackass selling it for $190.

There are quite a few seats popping up still for Austin tonight. This face value ticket exchange thing is the greatest ever. Wish other bands would follow suit.
