The Cure
The Cure Full Concert at Festival 2005 featuring Fascination Street
Ah, The Cure—what a captivating journey they’ve had! By the time we get to that memorable live recording from June 25, 2005, at the Pacific Coliseum in Vancouver, they’d already carved out a significant place in the hearts of fans worldwide. Just a year earlier, in 2004, they released “The Cure,” an album that marked a return to their signature sound while exploring new territories. It featured tracks like "The End of the World" from the very setlist at the Vancouver concert! That performance, part of the 2005 festival circuit, was a testament to their enduring passion and a prime example of the band's electrifying live energy. Interestingly enough, despite their long career, the band had managed to maintain a fresh vibe, inviting both long-time fans and new listeners to experience their iconic blend of post-punk and gothic rock. The tension in the air, the thunderous applause—didn’t it all reflect a band that was very much alive and thriving? It sure did!
