Concerto dos Cure por Thomas Lasham

O Thomas é um estreante n'O Quinto Andar. Quando soube que ele ia ao Royal Albert Hall a Londres, para assistir ao concerto dos Cure no dia 15 deste mês, pedi-lhe que depois partilhasse comigo as suas impressões sobre o concerto e (já assim para o abusadinha) pedi-lhe que partilhasse umas fotografias, também. O que o Thomas partilhou foi tão sentido e rico que lhe pedi se podia publicar aqui no blogue.
A mãe do Thomas é portuguesa, mas o pai é inglês (nada mais natural, afinal, estamos no Algarve, verdade?), o que faz dele bilingue. However, ele sente-se mais confortável com o inglês, e foi essa a língua que escolheu para escrever. Espero que apreciem o seu entusiamo tanto quanto eu.

"hey Helena the concert was mind blowing I’m still suffering a cure concussion but slowly the beautiful memories are coming back. I was seated in the second row of the circle at block R when Robert Smith walked on stage, from then on i was hypnotised and the 3 hour plus show felt like only 30 minutes. So i screamed danced and i have to admit also cried during the songs “In your house”, the Funeral Party and the Drowning man. I am 22 years old have been a dedicated cure fan for 8 years and never had the chance to see them before so seeing them play their first 3 albums and perform an amazing 14 song encore which included boys don’t cry, charlotte sometimes and a few very obscure B sides was definitely one of the most emotional and greatest experiences of my life."
