LOVESONG - The CURE Tribute
Relive the Cure: LOVESONG - The Cure Tribute
LOVESONG isn't just any tribute band; it's a portal to a genuine Cure concert. Fronted by the enigmatic Rusty Wilmot, whose embodiment of Robert Smith is uncanny, LOVESONG recreates the band's sound and captivating stage presence. Witness the meticulously crafted soundscapes, accompanied by a mesmerizing lights and video show, transporting you to the heart of a Cure experience.
LOVESONG's setlist caters to both casual and die-hard fans. Sing along to timeless hits like "Friday I'm in Love," "Just Like Heaven," “Pictures of You” and "Boys Don't Cry," while deep cuts and B-sides add a special touch for the dedicated Cure aficionado.
This isn't just a concert; it's a tribute. LOVESONG celebrates the enduring legacy of The Cure, meticulously preserving their music and spirit for a new generation.
Embark on a nostalgic journey back to the golden era of music with 
First Wave
,
 the premier tribute band dedicated to resurrecting the new wave and alternative anthems of the 70's, 80's, and 90's. This group of skilled musicians is fueled by a shared passion for the iconic sounds that defined a generation, bringing to life the melodies and rhythms that continue to resonate across the ages.
First Wave's repertoire is a carefully curated collection of hits from the pioneers of alternative, synth pop, new wave, and goth/industrial music. From the dark, poetic tunes of The Cure to the revolutionary synth sounds of Depeche Mode, and the boundary-pushing tracks of NIN and David Bowie, First Wave pays homage to a diverse array of musical legends. Their setlist is a who's who of the era, including anthems from The Smiths, Duran Duran, Billy Idol, REM, INXS, A Flock of Seagulls, The Church, The Police, and many more.
But First Wave offers more than just a musical performance; they provide an immersive experience. Each show is an audio-visual spectacle, featuring state-of-the-art lasers and visual elements that transport the audience back in time. This attention to detail not only honors the aesthetic of the original bands but also enhances the overall concert experience, making each song a journey through the sights and sounds of a bygone era.
What sets First Wave apart is their commitment to live performance. In an age where digital music reigns supreme, this band insists on the authenticity and energy of live instruments, capturing the raw emotion and passion that computer-generated sounds cannot replicate. It's this dedication to authenticity that has earned them a loyal following and the reputation as the ultimate tribute to the music that continues to inspire and move generations.

时常需要出去走走

The Acropolis, perched atop a hill about 150 meters high in the heart of Athens, is visible from many parts of the city.

Originally built for defense and refuge, the Acropolis was also a place where the ancient Athenians worshipped the goddess Athena. When discussing Athenian culture, the Parthenon, the Erechtheion, the Temple of Athena Nike, and the Propylaea are essential components of the Acropolis, highlighting its importance. These sites are crucial for understanding Athenian culture and are must-sees. I visited in December, during the off-season, and both the Parthenon and the Erechtheion were under renovation and inaccessible; however, even from a distance, one could sense their former glory. Climbing to the top offers panoramic views of Athens, a dense expanse of white houses stretching as far as the eye can see. Both theaters are breathtaking. Only the buildings themselves remain on the Acropolis; a visit to the Acropolis Museum to carefully examine the preserved artifacts is highly recommended. Otherwise, you&#39;ll only be able to gaze at the columns and imagine its past glory.

Perhaps due to the off-season, there was no queue for tickets; they cost 30 euros per person. The mountain isn&#39;t high, but the wind is strong and the sun is shining brightly, so be sure to protect yourself from the sun and wind; wearing sneakers is a must. Guides need to be booked in advance; there aren&#39;t many people before 10 am, so you can read the written description carefully.

Acropolis Museum

Museums

Ideally, you should climb the Acropolis in the morning and visit the Acropolis Museum in the afternoon. The museum is located a few hundred meters below the Acropolis and houses most of the Acropolis&#39;s artifacts. Viewing these artifacts will help you understand ancient Greek civilization. It&#39;s best to do some research beforehand and have some knowledge of ancient Greek history, especially the major wars and key gods.

The first floor houses artifacts excavated from numerous temples on the Acropolis hillside and from residential areas at the foot of the hill.

The second floor is the &quot;Archaic Period Art Exhibition Area,&quot; exhibiting items including the square ceiling of the Acropolis&#39;s promontory, sculptures from the Temple of Athena Nike, and caryatids from the Erechtheion.

The third floor closed early that day for some reason, so I didn&#39;t see it.

During the visit, look out the windows and at the ground. The transparent glass walls offer a 360-degree view of the Parthenon and the entire city of Athens; the ground level is the archaeological site, suspended in mid-air by more than 100 concrete pillars. I recommend heading to the restaurant on the 3rd floor around sunset for a drink or a bite to eat (I recommend the spinch pie, but avoid the pre-made penach spritzer), and waiting for the Acropolis to light up. It&#39;s a truly invigorating experience.

The museum doesn&#39;t have guided tours, but the language-based guides are excellent. The free Wi-Fi provided with the guides is much better than my roaming data plan. If you have enough time, I suggest taking the 2-hour guided tour to fully appreciate the museum.

A must-see when traveling to Greece! The museum has a rich collection of treasures from the fourth century, including stone carvings, pottery, bronze, gold, etc. It&#39;s worth a visit!

Parthenon

环球史蒂夫

Theater of Herodes Atticus and Caryatids and Parthenon
However, the Caryatids in the Acropolis are not authentic. The authentic ones are in the nearby Acropolis Museum and... the British Museum

Like most Greek temples, this temple was also used as a treasury.
1. It was built in 447 BC to replace the old Parthenon (destroyed by the Persians in 480 BC).
2. For a while, it was the treasury of the Delian League (which later evolved into the Athenian Empire).
3. In the 6th century AD, the Parthenon was converted into a church dedicated to the Virgin Mary (the original Athena was also a virgin).
4. In the early 1460s, after being conquered by the Ottoman Turks, it was used as a mosque.
5. It was used as a gunpowder magazine by the Turkish army in 1687 and was unfortunately severely damaged in an explosion.
6. By 1800, only half of the Parthenon statues survived. After obtaining approval from the Ottoman government, British Ambassador Sir Elgin began to transport half of the surviving statues back to Britain at his own expense starting in 1801, and they began to be exhibited in the British Museum in 1817.

Although it is a site under restoration, you can still feel the weight of history. The ticket inspector did not immediately recognize the admission voucher. He looked at it for a long time and asked why there was no price displayed. We explained and finally got in.
