Do any of you have or know how to obtain the part from Cure MTV Icon when Robert performs "All Of This" with Blink 182? Thanks so much!

I didn't even know they did "All Of This" until you mentioned it!

Sadly, there are no known audience recordings of this show. I don't know if security was really tight for the event or what.   :roll:  

It's too bad really... I guess we can only hope something will surface one of these days.   :?

Does anyone else remember seeing this when it was originally on? I thought it was ok except that Marilyn Manson all over Robert was a bit odd.

Take Care,

Well, I've never been a fan of Manson and the way he talks/behaves in this is not making things better.  :roll:
The show itself is not bad, it was (is) good to see some people (again) like Phil Thornalley or Mike Hedges!
Nice comment by Roger: "...Robert asked me to stay and he's regretted it ever since".  :lol:

I could live without hearing Blink 182 covering "Letter to Elise"...  :P
(I did like their song "All of this" feat. RS though!!)

Btw, it must quite some pressure to cover a Cure song while the band is watching on.  :o

@ Melting Man. If I remember correctly, I think it was only shown on MTV in America.

Glad you enjoyed it!

I love this special. I always felt that Robert is so underrated as a musician and I think it's nice when folks come out and tribute him :)

I went to this in Old Billingsgate Market in London. Weird, but good night. It was shown on MTV Europe.
