September 29, 1979 MM England Review of Siouxsie and the Banshees / The Cure / Spizz Energi at the Odeon in Birming ham.
 The photo accompanying the review is a shout of Siouxsie, none of the Cure. Full review with photo takes up 1/3 of page.
 About a 1/4 of the article is specifically about the cure's set,
plus Robert Smith is mentioned as he was doing double duty playing guitar for the Banshees at the time as well.
