No kidding.  It's next weekend!  I wonder if they will play some new songs?  Robert said they would in Mexico, though I don't recall reading anything about the Shoreline concert.  Certainly they've rehearsed enough to make the debut of a song or two and not just throw the same old singles at us once again.

Come on guys, there's a Cure gig this weekend and no one seems interested.  Everyone appears to busy chatting about...well...what are you chatting about?  :?

i guess the color of robert's socks is so damn important that some minor facts like upcoming gigs just don't make to the top of the list of interests anymore.

Oh, I think you were luckier than any fan attending this show.  How long was the Brisbane gig, 3 hours?  The Cure are scheduled only two hours on Saturday  :(  Maybe some young band will show a little respect to their elders and bow out early, thus allowing The Cure to put on a proper gig  :rocker  My vote is for AFI to cancel  :lol:

yeah Brissy was a pretty good show... i was in heaven for it all.


nausearockpig

back to my othe note, is anyone from curefans.com going and taping the show?

hey let's hope so. AFI sucks heh.
although i'm afraid it might just as well be that every crappy band there wants to keep their slot in the bill just so that they can boost up their sorry little egos and be able to say "we were on the same bill with the cure!" and write that down on their resume or something.

anyway, 2 hours doesn't have to be necessarily bad. it depends what they choose to play. if they do similar stuff as in japan, then it's bound to a disappointment, more or less. but just thinking of gigs like carhaix 2002 - not the longest set but still, what a killer setlist!
i wish i'd seen that gig, actually.

I'll be there this weekend but unfortunately I'm not a taper.

Aside from AFI, this is a very strong line-up.  BRMC and (especially) Metric are amazing bands and are great live.  None of them are crappy, and I don't know that any of them need to note that they played with The Cure once in order to have a successful career, as they've already proven themselves as solid acts.

Don't forget She Wants Revenge.  The infamous SZ will be at the festival, taping as always
