Hey, maybe...

Click here for more photos from the Cure’s tour opener in Virginia Smith flashed the crowd a demonic schoolgirl grin often, did a bit [...]

Photos/notes by Kyle Gustafson The Cure launched their spring North American tour with a bang on Friday night, playing a 38-song, three-hour marathon gig at the Patriot Center in Fairfax, Virginia (just outside Washington, D.C.).
