msgee… It’s good for you!
Listen to your music, or watch your favorite movies or tv shows.
I just bought one of these from Costco, but you would be better off buying it from amazon.com because it’s $10 less, no salestax, and you get it in either black or white.
Amazon Review : An ambitious yet practical idea, Trilogy underscores the tonal and lyrical connections between three of the Cure’s darkest albums in the last 20 years. The restless, ever-changing band, fronted by goth-gloomster Robert Smith, took up residence at the Tempodrom Berlin for a couple of nights in late 2002 for the express purpose of playing the group’s 1982 Pornography, 1989’s Disintegration, and 2000’s Bloodflowers live and in their entirety. Whether it was a good idea or not depends on one’s point of view. All three sets are long on droning, funereal rhythm sections, thick guitar lines that carry good pop melodies to overstylized destruction, and Smith’s own cracked, morose vocals. On the other hand, fine distinctions emerge: The Disintegration portion of the show is lightest on its feet, with lush orchestration on “Plainsong,” a hint of swing on “Lovesong,” and cinematic tendencies in the stirring “The Same Deep Water as You.” The rest of the concert is numbing. –Tom Keogh
msgee review : The amazon reviewer does not like The Cure and it’s obvious. This is a great concert that you, and me, should have been to, but weren’t. However, if you don’t like The Cure, you won’t like this DVD. Maybe I could recommend, puke, Neil Diamond for some “cracklin rose” instead.
Anyway, click on the image and go to amazon.com and buy it and when you get it, stick it in the DVD, turn on you HD TV, turn up the surround sound, and prepare to be happily depressed. The concert on the 2 DVDs is over 3 hours long and contains the music from 3 of The Cure’s darkest albums. What could be better?

msgee review : Robert Love is a member of one of my favorite bands, Alabama 3, or a3 in the US.
The music is somewhat a3 in style, but still different. If you like a3, and who doesn’t, you need to click on the image and buy it.
