Hello image, sing me a line from your favourite song

My first concert was The Cure at America West Arena (US Airways Center) 19 June 1992 with a few of my best mates. That was back in the days when it was really easy to be so excited about something that it felt that nothing else in the world mattered, and indeed leading up to that concert, nothing else did matter. I was overtaken with excitement as they opened the show with "Open" and Robert sang "I laugh and I jump and I sing and I laugh and I dance and I laugh and I laugh and I laugh... and the way the rain comes down hard, that's the way I feel inside".

Well last night the rain was truly coming down hard at our house for the first time this season and it was the perfect weather for listening to a bunch of my early Cure favorites. I was inspired to do so because I somehow had the song "M" (17 Seconds 1980) stuck in my head and I remembered the first time I heard that song was at the aforementioned concert. It was the one song of the night that I wasn't familiar with and being the overzealous fan that I was, it was a super exciting moment hearing a new-to-me song for the first time.

Although I'm not quite as excitable as I used to be, I was moved by the music last night and had to sneak into the garage to record my own rendition:

You might notice the skeleton of a wall in the garage, could this be the future site of some kind of music studio?

Something I notice is that the video and audio quality of my new camera is lacking compared to my old low end Casio Exilim which sadly got stolen:(

still enjoyable I hope.
