    Starting to warm up after a bit of a dull opening. And unless I'm mistaken that looks like Reeves Gabrels on guitar, can anyone confirm, I'm a bit out of the loop. I heartily approve if it is!!:cool:

    They still sound great. A lot of the bands of that era sound a bit ropey now but been impressed so far.

    Pictures of You, into Lullaby, excellent. They were always a bit weird but they did make some cracking music.

    The Cure in Orange is one of my favourite concert films. This feels a bit too slick, you wouldn't know there were tens of thousands watching them.
    That's definitely Reeves Gabrels, I just googled. More than adequate stand in for Porl Thomson. Just like Heaven & Push didn't quite have the same swagger but can't be too critical.
