The Dreaming's PV "Beautiful"!!!
I like Stabbing Westward very much, so I know that Christopher Hall(vocalist of SW) is a long-time-huge-fan of The Cure.
After SW has split up, Christopher Hall organized his new band, name is The Dreaming. Recently I watched their 1st music video at their official website. And it made me so happy because Christopher is wearing The Cure T-shirt(probably "The Head On The Door" era's) in the "Beautiful" video. If you want to see it, here is the URL of the PV. (And The Dreaming rocks!!!)

Well, Chris' favorite bands are; The cure(He wrote the first), Tori Amos, NIN, Depeche Mode, Bauhaus, Joy Division... (All of them are my fav artists, too!!!)
The Cure is really respected by many big bands and big artists. That's great!!
When I bought The Dreaming EP at the official site, I wrote a fan letter to Christopher. And to my great surprised, he gave me his autograghs on the jackets of the EP!!

Stabbing Westward played the Cure-cover, "Give Me It"!!!
ladyangel told me that Stabbing Westward played the cover, "Give Me It" at Limelight in NYC in the mid-90's. I am interested in that very much!! Thanks, ladyangel!!! Your details you gave me must help me to find a bootleg or something soooo much!! I try to find it for my life!!!
I think that the bands who play the cover of "Give Me It" are a rarity in this world. And Christopher's voice is different from Robert's very much, so I want to know how he sang the song.
***I want to throw in 2 pictures of Christopher Hall.***
