Was lucky enough to see the band 20 times so I have decided to burn into CDs each of these live recordings (have most of them in FLAC, hopefully I will find them all at some point).

What about you?

I'm trying to imagine in my mind how the next album will sound... but it's really difficult. ;)

Honest, I'm trying to guess what the future might bring for The Cure, but I have no idea.
In the meantime, I'm trying to enjoy the past: right now it's the 30th anniversary of "Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me", so I will listen to those songs again in the next few weeks/months.  :smth020

As Perry B. posted not long ago:
QuoteCure songs just get better and better. With each passing year I appreciate them more, I hear more meaning in the lyrics, I'm amazed at the compositional skill, I'm reminded over and over of the emotional depth and still find new meaning and resonance in them.

I am currently revisiting all cure discography, putting special attention to the 3 latest albums which, being honest, i didn't pay much attention when released. Maybe because those albums didn't click with me the first time i listened to them compared to the others , or maybe because i had not enough time, or mood to do so, things that happen when you grow older....work children etc...

So ,the last 8-10 years i haven't been listening to them very much, only occasionally. It was a needed rest probably, because when I heard that they would be on tour i got the tickets the first day they went on sale, still a year to go, but  it could be the last time i had the chance to see them live (so far i've seen them 3 times only)... and a month before the show i started to listen them again, not much, but once i saw them live....boom, that feeling started again.
And here i am. Like someone who has discrovered them only recently  :-D
I am also trying to find live performances and shows in decent quality, and trying to discover if i miss any of their official albums and singles b sides etc..., so i can buy them.
So far only been able to download some Youtube full concerts, and a few via torrent, but hard to find material.
Hopefully they will release some live BR/DVD soon.

I am also expecting the new album... i have a feeling it will be released  next april, 10 years after 4:13, on Robert's birthday :P

I hope it is a bit different than the latest ones, and has a good number of B sides , and that Robert includes forgotten songs from 20-30 years ago too. It should be a double album at least, i hope something like Kiss me.

Hard to say. I'm just in the process of (professional) reorientation.
Last month I achieved a settlement with my former employer after
twelve months legal action against him. One official appointment
interfered with the Frankfurt show, so 2016 was really bad. I'm reading
a novel at the moment and after every chapter I'm listening to a number
of my favorite Cure songs. Then I'm a different person.  :lol:

Okay, I'll make this public now: one Cure project I should be working on is the ***!
I've been thinking up some questions alreay, but not put them to paper yet (or on a screen, this is 2017).

*project is "on hold" for a number of reasons - maybe later...
