(i have a picture of trent too... )

americans get all the fun: news songs, 'other voices' - even trent.

next time robert plays in europe he'd better make sure he brings trent with him and i'd better be seated right next to him. that's the least apology i can take.
until then, i hate robert.

We were due, after tour after tour of getting the poppier sets compared to Europe. Prayer Tour, Wish Tour, Swing Tour..... Europe got MUCH better sets than North America. About friggin time!

I'm leaving for LA in a few hours. Starting to feel that familiar pre-show tingling. Or maybe I just need to pee. It's sort of the same feeling.

My wishlist for tonight from the Master Setlist that Saint Crowbi provided:

Plainsong
Pictures of You
Prayers For Rain
The Same Deep Water as You
~~Disintegration~~
The Figurehead
Siamese Twins
The Hanging Garden
~~A Strange Day~~
The Holy Hour
~~Primary~~
Other Voices
Charlotte Sometimes
The Drowning Man
~~Faith~~
At Night
M
Play For Today
A Forest
~~Out of This World~~
Watching Me FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALL
Maybe Someday
~~Bloodflowers~~
The Big Hand
Want
Club America
Doing the Unstuck
A Letter to Elise
To Wish Impossible Things
Underneath the Stars
A Boy I Never Knew
The Perfect Boy
Sleep When I'm Dead
Baby Rag Dog Book
The Kiss

~~How Beautiful You Are...~~
Shiver And Shake
If Only Tonight We Could Sleep

A Night Like This
The Blood

Three Imaginary Boys
Fire in Cairo
Boys Don't Cry
Jumping Someone Else's Train
Grinding Halt
10.15 Saturday Night

Mmm, no, actually.
That's the first encore.

Great reviews guys!

Looks like another decent Cure show. I'm so wishing I had the money to see a few more when they come back out to the east coast!

For once I could hear Porl coming through the PA and didn't have to rely on picking him up through his cabinets. He's such an integral part to this Cure line-up that he needs to be loud like tonight. The strange , no make that bothersome part of the mix tonight was Jason. For once it wasn't his kick drum that was too loud, it was practically every other drum and one or two cymbals, with the snare being WAY to loud.

I was in a Terrace box and had trouble hearing Porl most of the time. And the snare drum *was* really dreadful.

Were you on the left or right side, far or near? I was on the left in the second row of boxes. Perhaps I was hearing Porl through his amps.

And after being to a few shows where I was right in front of his amps I can tell you that there wasn't much of his rhythm stuff coming through the PA. Hell, some of his solos were pretty faint as well. I really wonder what the deal is there. Up close, it's great. Not so much from further back.

Pretty much dead middle left right and middle of the terrace front to back. I mean I could hear him, just not very well. And his tone was weak.

you can for instance attach the pic on your post

:

when you have the pic on your computer HD, then as you're making a reply post here click 'additional options' just below the area you're typing into. there you'll see 'attach' option. click 'browse' and choose the pic from your HD. then hit 'post' and voilá!

let's see the pic..

Not sure on the quality, as this pic was taken on my cell phone, but here ya go...

japanesebaby · « **Reply #34 on:** June 07, 2008, 08:05:56 PM »

damn you are some lucky guys: you get to see/listen to robert & co. while almost seated next to trent!
maybe i have to say i'm glad i wasn't there, i would have been too confused having too many personal heroes all around.

(thanks for upping the pic! if i may, i'll send to a few friends(?))

Absolutely, I do not mind that you share, I happen to be in a sharing mood today, as you can see with the other random pic I attached. Nothing special, but I just feel like posting more poor quality cell phone pics of probably one of the best concerts I have been to (Rage Against the Machine back in 1999 still takes the cake!)

MintCarSpiderMan · « **Reply #36 on:** June 15, 2008, 04:25:38 PM »

For my first post I will mention what an AWESOME show it was! It was my first Cure show ever and to see them at the beautiful venue that is the Hollywood Bowl was an extra special treat. We had first row in the second section back from the stage. When we walked in, we saw Adrian Grenier (Vincent Chase from Entourage) so that was pretty cool since I'm a big fan of that show.

I was really hoping to hear Fascination Street, but I guess I'll have to catch that at my next show. The setlist was amazing though and it's refreshing to have a band play for such a long time. Highlights for me would be Lullaby, Pictures of You, Just like Heaven, One Hundred Years, In Between Days, hell just the whole thing was amazing. I could listen to Robert sing names out of the phone book for days.

Just a great experience and I can't wait until my next show!

Nice close-up here, too bad the sound is crappy

This is another good one

Both "Underneath the stars", one of the greatest songs of our favourite band.
