Like the Cure all eras — a lot — and while not a metalhead, like a lot of metal. Different modes, different vibes, different moods.

This might be four or five years dated, not sure, but Steely Dan are definitely Friends of Dolan because they do shows for like a week straight each year at Dolan’s Beacon Theatre. One year (maybe more) they dedicated a couple shows to just playing Aja straight through.

Geo, i come from the punk-rock and punk-hardcore movements and also love The Cure. 😛 They have a lot of styles, so that probably brings them different kinds of fans, like from the dark times with “Charlotte Sometimes”, and maybe more indie/alternative (i really am not that knowledgeable about music style names) on “Pictures of You”, “Just Like Heaven”, “Lovesong”, and others, then more accessible to people, with more uplifting songs like “Friday I’m in Love”. And there’s also a song totally different from the rest, “Burn” for the movie The Crow, that is also amazing but in a different way. Looks like the band almost didn’t “existed” at the time and so Robert did the song by himself with only the drummer helping him. They must have great stories to tell, i’d certainly like to hear a JK podcast about them. And Donnie is with me, i’m sure of it. 😉

All I know about anything that has been discussed here today is that De La Soul mashed up Peg with Otis Redding and made a really good song

“so i guess you’re not getting this sad, mopey: i never get or keep the love of my life/the moment, kind of vibe from their music?”

I think that is the general view of them is that Robert Smith generally writes about that stuff…but they have plenty of tunes that don’t have that mood to it

well…I think the Cure are like Exhibit A or most famous “goth rock” band…maybe that is what is the link to metal

the cure rule..

so i guess you’re not getting this sad, mopey: i never get or keep the love of my life/the moment, kind of vibe from their music?

what’s interesting is that my buddy who really digs them, also likes metal…

it’s hard from me to put those two together…

I guess it depends on if you want the cookie thick and crispy or soft and chewy

“Why do you chill chocolate chip cookie dough?”

My wife says it prevents the cookie from loosing shape/flattening…I believe it helps to maintain the strucuture…but Jowles probably has the science aspect of it better than me…

check out Steve Gadd at the end of Aja (the song). Just sublime.

okay, yeah it starts at about the 6:56 mark, that is pretty crisp, no slow end for that song…i imagine it’s a great show…it would be cool to hear aja live just to see all the instruments used to create the sound…
