I have no idea who some of these artist are either. But, as Bananarama aged well so has my biggest musical crush, Susanna Hoffs.

Robert Smith of The Cure aged alright. His voice anyway. Saw The Cure a couple years ago and he sounds practically the same. Must have played for close to 3 hours that night as well. They did the first 3 albums in their entirety then a bunch of hits. He's a bit fatter than he was back in the day, but he still goes with the makeup and crazy hair.


Another one that still sounds almost as good is Ian McCulloch of Echo and the Bunnymen. He's still going with the smoking a ciggy on stage deal. Saw them a couple of years ago too. I wish these two groups would gig back in Southern California soon!
