The Cure

For most, normal family outings consist of going camping or going to Disney World. Going to see The Cure when they came through Philadelphia was mine. My mom and three older sisters have been going to see them since 1985. Today my sisters have their own daughters and do the same. Now I’m a grown up and am dying to shoot them, especially for this tour where they’re only playing songs off their first three albums. Please say a prayer for me.
