(text messages from Sullen)

15:54- "65dos is soundchecking. Cure are on at 8:30. Three hours is confirmed by the venue, scheduled on stage 'til 11:30.  More later."
17:40- "They are playing a new song right now.  It's very upbeat, not bad like Freakshow, though."
17:44- "Another new one.  Very slow, pretty and lush sounding.  Sounds amazing!"
19:41- "Looks like a young Lovecats crowd tonight.  Most are in their 20s and even less of a goth and punk turnout than the last two nights."
20:20- "Not a huge crowd tonight. Less people than Fairfax and Philly, it seems."
21:09- On Sleep When I'm Dead (New Song 1 from soundcheck): "Sounds kinda like Shiver and Shake."
21:44- On The Blood "Porl is playing an electric on this."
22:49- On Close To Me "Robert is very drunk"

******************************************************************************
Many thanks to Sullen for the setlist tonight!    What a shame...15 minutes left to do the third encore....could have easily done Other Voices/Faith.  Instead, more of the same. 

Boston University presale starts tomorrow.  Does anyone know the password?

so if we come early - like three hours before the show, we could catch the band entering?

how can you enter the venue during soundcheck? i thought doors didnt open until 6:30

I hope there is no curfew for Boston....

7:30 start time, that would put them on stage at 8:30 the way things are going and with the 11pm curfew in place..... well.....

Hopefully it's 1130 or 65 days of wank will go on at 7.

Soundcheck is at 4 usually.
Band usually arrives at 3.

I'll do setlist coverage for this one if nobody else can.

i don't think they'll change the start time without notice.

I sorta doubt there's a curfew pre-midnight. i've seen Pearl Jam several times at the Fleet/Garden and those shows have run close to midnight. I know the Orpheum has an 11pm curfew but that's a venue specific thing. I was just wondering if anyone here knew of anything, because the Cure won't be on till 8:30 and i hope they can play till 11:30 at least.

sullen.. i agree.. without a w*nking support band, there WOULD BE 3hours or more of our boys!

I know there was a curfew in Oz... BUT we did not have to put up with a tragic support band..   

i hope all the best for the Best Band tonite.. and all the Curefans attending..   

enjoy!!     p.s.  jealous.   

Even with the support band, The Cure have been playing plenty long sets.

yes, quite right there rodney .. but imagine without curfews, and JUST The Cure playing.. an extra 30 minutes, or an hour..?   

MAGIC 

Sullen has sent in the soundcheck.  Right now there has been silence inside for about 5 minutes, so we are assuming they are done soundchecking.  Keep an eye on the first post above for the setlist as it happens tonight!

quick question - what type of lights has 65dos been using? same as the cure i assume?

Sleep When I'm Dead 

Isn't that the one said to be written back in '85? 

Is it? Where have you heard that?

hello 17/M from the states, I don't really know why but I somehow found myself on this website 3 of the last 4 days watching Cure setlists coming in, thought I'd say hi. Any way I was wondering, and I know some bands find this taboo while others don't, is there any place online where I can get bootlegs of these shows? Thanks. Looking forward to the new CD in the fall!

There are a number of places.
