Happy Post-Saint Patrick’s Day!
If your into the hair of dog that bit you, why not raise a pint, kick back, relax and check out the edit I just completed of The Cure’s live video “Three Imaginary Boys” It was filmed in Boston in 1980 and has been sitting in the can since then. The Cure were on their first US Tour and played a small club called the Underground. The place held just over a hundred or so people. It was also Robert Smith’s 21st birthday. So raise another pint cause he’s going to be 50 next month….YIKES!!
First time view of “Three Imaginary Boys” here:

Also posted a video from The Thompson Twins 1983 live show at The Royal Court Theatre in Liverpool England. This is pretty good version of “In the Name of Love” The Twins were a bit
popish but they certainly had an impact on the New Wave edge during the 80‘s. Besides always loved the head of hair on Alannah Currie.
