By: Spencinator    Category: Dodge Theatre, Concerts

If you like seeing an old dude wearing lipstick, then you have the right band. Come see Robert Smith and the Cure play at the Dodge Theater here in Phoenix. Here is some info from wikipedia:

The Cure are an English rock band that formed in Crawley, Sussex in 1976. The band has experienced several lineup changes, with frontman, guitarist and main songwriter Robert Smith—known for his iconic wild hair, pale complexion, smudged lipstick and frequently gloomy and introspective lyrics—being the only constant member.

The members of The Cure first started releasing music in the late 1970s. Their first album, Three Imaginary Boys (1979), and early singles placed them as part of the post-punk and New Wave movements that had sprung up in the wake of the punk rock revolution in the United Kingdom. During the early 1980s the band’s increasingly dark and tormented music helped form the gothic rock genre. After the release of 1982’s Pornography, the band’s future was uncertain and frontman Robert Smith was keen to move past the gloomy reputation his band had cultivated. With the 1982 single “Let’s Go to Bed” Smith began to inject more of a pop sensibility into the band’s music. The Cure’s popularity increased as the decade wore on, especially in the United States, where the songs “Just Like Heaven”, “Lovesong” and “Friday I’m in Love” entered the Billboard Top 40 charts. By the start of the 1990s, The Cure were one of the most popular alternative rock bands in the world and have sold an estimated 27 million albums as of 2004.[1] As of 2007, The Cure have released twelve studio albums and over thirty singles, with a thirteenth album in the works.

Are you ready for a show with singing and dancing? The Celtic Woman are coming to the Dodge theater here in Phoenix. Here is some info from wikipedia:

Celtic Woman was filmed on 15 September 2004 for PBS Television at The Helix, Dublin, Ireland in front of a sold out audience. Organized by producer Sharon Browne, Chairman & CEO Dave Kavanagh and musical director and composer David Downes, this performance was first broadcast on PBS during March 2005 in the United States, and within weeks the group’s eponymous debut album Celtic Woman reached #1 on Billboard’s World Music chart, eventually breaking a long-standing record on 22 July 2006 by staying at #1 for 68 weeks, and held that position for 81 weeks total. Much of the group’s success in America has been credited to the extensive PBS publicity throughout 2005. The live performance at The Helix was released on DVD alongside the studio album.

The release of the second album, Celtic Woman: A Christmas Celebration, on 19 October 2006 knocked their first album to the #2 spot on the World Music chart

I remember Magaret Cho from her show called All American Girl in the early nineties. Now show does a comedy show. Come to the Dodge Theater in Phoenix. Here is some info from wikipedia:

Cho was born Moran Cho to a Korean-American family in San Francisco, California. She was frequently called “Moron” by other children. Cho grew up in a culturally diverse neighborhood in the 1970s and 1980s, which she described as a community of “old hippies, ex-druggies, burnouts from the ’60s, drag queens, Chinese people and Koreans. To say it was a melting pot - that’s the least of it. It was a really confusing, enlightening, wonderful time.”
