Last July, The Cure celebrated their 40th anniversary as a live band in Hyde Park London. That performance was so hot hot hot, it is coming to theaters around the world on July 11th. This way, even if you were not able to see that memorable performance in person, you can see it from the comfort of a soft cushy chair in an air conditioned movie theater. Which I prefer!
Robert Smith and director Tim Pope, who worked on some of their most iconic music videos, wanted to “create a totally immersive experience for cinema-goers.” They did so by spending hours togther in the editing bay along with recording final tweaks in 5.1 audio at the legendary Abbey Road Studios and incoporating 4K footage. You will feel like you are there without having that fan in front of you holding up their phone to record the concert.
The only problem with 4k is that you will be able to see every knot in the singer’s hair. I wonder if that spider from the Lullaby video is still in there. We might never know. Unless the video is so amazing, you will see it crawling around in his messy locks. Which I get is his signature look.
You can buy tickets for the 2 hours and 17 minute musical event now at Atom. It is must for fans of the band and/or music.
For 50 years, we have been hearing Cookie Monster singing C Is For Cookie, but yesterday he sang another well-known song with food in the lyrics.
Our favorite blue monster left the comforts of Sesame Street to go to a Cubs game in Chicago. Since he is a celebrity, they put him in the announcer’s booth. Then for the seventh inning stretch, he sang their anthem Take Me Out to the Ball Game with everyone in the crowd.
Just like when they were children, the whole crowd sang along with him. Actually, I was singing along too. I forgot how happy that tune makes me. Then again, it could be because I was singing it with one of my favorite people from my childhood.

Saying Gyllenhaal is almost as hard to pronounce it as it is to spell. However, you would think that Jake Gyllenhaal would be able to say it without a problem. Yesterday, when he was talking about Spider-Man Far From Home with Extra, she said he was the best Gyllenhaal. He asked her to “say it a little lower because there are a couple of other Gyllenhaals” there. Although, he could not quite get the plural version of it out as easily.
If he can’t say his own name, how are we expected to?
When it comes to his archnemesis, at least it is easy to say and spell Ryan Reynolds! When are we going to get a Deadpool, Wolverine and Mysterio movie? That would show those other Marvel movies who is boss.
