Twenty days after the dreamy desert trip to Coachella, we, qian, di, and I, were back again for The Cure, this time at the HFStival 2004 in Washington DC. In nearly eight hot, muddy, and exhausting hours, we fought to stay in the front rows. Those crowd-surfing-for-fun DC kids finally took a break, when Robert Smith stepped onto the stage and brought a completely different mood to the RFK Stadium with the opening Lost. The Cure played a fantastic set, though a bit too short. We displayed our banner a third time to The Cure in three weeks, and the message has been delivered again.
