Favorite Siouxsie and the Banshees/Glove/Robert Moment?

Outside of The Cure my favorite band is Siouxsie and the Banshees. I have many favorite Banshee and Robert moments. I love him in the Dear Prudence video. He is so adorable dancing around and waving his hands over Siouxsie Sioux's head in a little boyish way. It makes me giggle everytime I watch the video. It's like the rabbit ears over the head type thing. Another is when he was in The Glove with Steve from The Banshees. My favorite song from The Glove is "Mr. Alphabet Says" to me it sounds like a funeral at a carnival. Oh, I can't foget him once discribing when he was recording with The Banshees during the day, and at night with The Cure recording The Top LP and Siouxsie calling back at him saying "Robert, why are you singing?!?! this is The Banshees!!" He wasn't supposed to be singing, but he'd wonder off singing forgetting where he was.

Ok, I could go on forever.

What is your favorite Banshee/Glove/Robert moment?

That's easy! Sometime in 1983, two nights at the Royal Albert Hall, Smithy on guitar, me a tender 18 in the mosh pit...ah, happy days!

I seem to remember she had a bandage over her forehead from the night before, she'd been skipping round the stage like she did and walked into the head of one the guitars as it went swinging back the other way.

The gig might have been cool but I remember I wasn't, I cringe with embarrasment at the memories of getting her attention!

Re: Favorite Siouxsie and the Banshees/Glove/Robert Moment?

I'm glad somebody mentioned the 'Play at Home' video..
I love Robert's monologue..
A piece of useless trivia.. One of the people wearing a clown mask is Porl Thompson.. :p

It would have been very cool to see them play as a supergroup had there not been so much tension between the two groups in the end..

I like watching RSX and Siouxsie play instruments on the same stage and (no I won't apologize for this!) I like when she pulls her own hair and screams and falls on the floor! Ow!

i broke my promise to this site.
i did it again.
i am truly sorry and i feel badly about posting whilst drunk. I used to do the same thing to Michael Jackson. Why is it so easy sometimes to pick on celebrities??! I did not mean a word of it. Why do you still let me post here? egads.
ok..3 ups:
Robert Smith has a lot of talent.
Robert Smith has a great voice.
Robert Smith makes great music with his guitar.
