Hi

As a cure fan and a collector of all things CURE, I was looKing through my collection and when I got to my copy of FIVE SWING LIVE I realised they are numbered (there were only 5000 printed). I had an inspiration I know that Cure fans are spread all round the world, so I thought I wonder who has these it is easy to say you have a copy of Disintegration, or Pornography anyone can get these, but only 5000 of us have a copy of the original Five Swing Live.

So I looked on Amazon and there are 4 copies up for sale (numbers included on Amazon) and I was amazed (but shouldnt have been) to see that these sell for between $200 and $500US.

So I wondered who has these and why do we all want to collect so much CURE memorobilia etc.

So I have decided to start a world wide search to discover where these 5000 copies are and who has them.

I NEED YOUR HELP, if you have a copy please contact me with the copy number. If it looks like it is an achievable study I shall pursue it through as far as I can and publish on line (NO NAMES of course) where the CD's are located.

Anyone interested in helping out, or wishing to furnish me with info, please contact me at

Hi Murray, yes, there was a Greek fan in our Facebook page who said he had the copy No 3440. I guess is the same person? And not, unfortunately I don't own a copy but I am sure some other people here at curefans.com have one, hopefully they will let you know.

Happy new year!
