The Cure 061393 Finsbury Park



First and foremost, I'm going to upload my shows in MP3. This saves me time and space. I will make exceptions if someone really wants a certain show in FLAC. Just let me know.

This show, to me, is by far the greatest Cure concert I think that was ever performed. Porl had left the group at this time and so they were reduced to a four piece. There's lots of aggression in how they played these songs. Shiver and Shake is simply incredible (and fast) and it was the best way to open the show. The version of A Forest that they played simply rocks................everything sounds so violent. Plus, there's no backing tracks or clickers (like they use today).

Unfortunately, I have three versions of this show and all of them have screaming broads. I pray that a soundboard of this show surfaces in the future.

New Order live 071986



This show is a radio broadcast from 1986. It opens with "Elegia", which I think sounds haunting. Its a pretty decent show. Hell, any show that they play "Face Up" in is a great show. Speaking of shows, does anyone have any radio broadcasts or soundboards of New Order from 1987? I'd like to get my hands on them.

The Cure 061608 NC, USA



This show is incomplete however, the sound is awesome. They started this gig with Underneath the Stars, which is a great way to start a show. When they first started to play this live, they used a backing track of waves crashing onto the shore and they used it for the outro as well. For whatever reason, they stopped using it. I thought it gave the song an etheral feel to it and I loved it. I was hoping that it would be used for the new album, but it wasn't. Hopefully a demo of this will surface in the future. I'll keep my fingers crossed. In my opinion, this is one of their best songs.

Friends of Old

The other night I dreamt back to the time when I was in grade school. In the dream, I had this simple sense of happiness. All my friends (in the picture) were there and we were concentrating on having fun. A far cry from the problems and worries of now. Its amazing how fast time goes by. This picture was taken this past summer. When I look at it now, I can see just how much we have all changed. Its almost scary knowing that so much time has elapsed. It was a great few hours the night this picture was taken. All we did was talk about the old days-skipping school, getting in trouble, getting liquored up before class started, music, girls-we really didn't talk about the here and now. But during those hours, I didn't have a single worry. It was nice. I miss my old friends and I hope we can get together again soon. This is a shout out to them.

New Order live 030186 England



I've only seen New Order once, and that was in Cleveland 1989 (I have an awesome soundboard recording of that show). They always play a good set list.

The Power Station live 072885


This is a radio broadcast from back in the day. The summer of 85 brings back a lot of memories, and with it, The Power Station. I use to think that these guys were the shit!!! Unfortunately, half of the band is already dead. I liked hearing their songs live, but some of the cover versions they played I think sucked ass.

The Cure 061095 Milano Italy

The sound is pretty good, however, its a little bit "bassy" at times. Kudos to the taper for having to put up with the broad next to him screaming. You should have donkey-punched her. Point of interest: Pictures of You. I loved how the song started with only Robert playing the guitar with Jason drumming along. A few moments later, Simon comes back from his beer break and kicks in.

Feast II



  • This movie was sweeeeeeeeeeeet!!!!!!!! I'm a blood and guts kind of guy. I sometimes deal with it at work, but I prefer it better when I'm watching it on T.V. This is the follow up to "Feast". The "Feast" movies are about people being terrorized by a group of monsters. In the first one, people were trapped in a bar (another awesome movie). Now in part two, people are trapped on a roof. It had wrestling midgets, topless broads, all kinds of bizarre shit. Hell,when there on the roof, they actually make a catapult and attempt to launch Grandma to another roof. The result is hilarious. And so is the scene with the baby (as well as disturbing). If you like jacked up movies, go check this out.

One of the best is gone...............


Roger Herald Romero
Roger Herald Romero August 14, 1960 - November 19, 2008 God put his arms around you and lifted you to rest. Gods garden must be beautiful because he only takes the best. A loving father strong and proud lived with dignity, confidence and commitment to his loving family. Refusing to pursue promotions to be with his children, Roger served as a Sergeant in the City of Santa Fe Police Department, providing service and safety to the public. He placed his own life on the line to protect and serve. Recipient of the Medal of Valor, the highest honor a Police Officer can receive for public service. Roger is survived and will be treasured by Susie Romero; his son Adamus Romero; daughter Brianna Romero; mother Laura Romero; sister Christine Thomas, husband Brad Thomas and children; brothers, Greg Romero, wife Dolores Romero and children; Ron Romero, wife Paulette Romero and children.

Roger was my supervisor, and more importantly, my friend while I was a cop in Santa Fe. It was always fun working along side of him. He was always the butt of my practical jokes and he took it well. Its been more than two weeks since he passed and I'm still hurting inside. I wish that I could have been there at the end for him. Viya con dios, Roger. You'll be missed.

Lets see how this goes..........

I've decided to start my own blog. I'm sure it won't appeal to most people because all I'm going to do with this is complain, bitch, moan, talk about the greatest band ever; The Cure, b.s. about horror movies, and talk about my experiences at work (hence the name Tired). Its going to be a work in progress.
