I remember that - we were supposed to fly out that year on Monday about about 10am, and didn't get out until 6:30pm. We were on the Blue line going to O'Hare at like 8am and it was really dark. We didn't get sent to the basement though, but I think power may have gone out for a while.
We are driving this year. Its 800+ miles - doing 200 tomorrow night, then the rest Thursday.
If Robert Smiths' makeup runs we won't be able to tell - it kind of always looks like that. But I am super excited to see The Cure again - they do great shows.
Here is a link apparently, to a Lolla live stream
