That would be a lot of fun.  I'd be up for something like that.

In fact, I already worked up setlists that I expect to see if anyone would be interested.

The staff is currently cooking up a contest.  Save that setlist, Rodney.  You might have the winning formula and wouldn't want people to copy it. 

it is so awesome to see an idea come to fruition! thanks. 

Underneath The Stars, Prayers For Rain, A Strange Day, alt.end, The End of the World, Lovesong, To Wish Impossible Things, Pictures of You, Lullaby, From the Edge of the Deep Green Sea, The Perfect Boy, Wrong Number, Push, Inbetween Days, Just Like Heaven, Primary, Shake Dog Shake, The Hungry Ghost, Disintegration, One Hundred Years, It's Over

1st encore: If Only Tonight We Could Sleep, The Kiss.
2nd encore: At Night, M, Play For Today, A Forest

Again and again and again....

And it's still going on ... Encore 3: Three Imaginary Boys, Fire in Cairo, Boy's don't Cry ...

And who knows what next ... ?

Plug has been pulled, Robert refuses to stop playing!     

 

It's over

Reactions after the show

(from coachella.com)

"They should have atleast left his mic on so he could have thanked the crowd but Im sure he would have just went accapella lol"

"Epic performance by The Cure, period"

"Seriously, he was mouthing the words to Grinding Halt so if his mic was live that totally would have happened! Even though it sucks the power got cut, I think it would be really invigorating and special to be in that crowd tonight"

"that was epic. this perfomance should come out on dvd"

"One of the most awesome Coachella moments ever. When the flood lights came on, it was "cool. They're still playing." When they cut out the sound and everyone from the back ran up singing "Boys Don'T Cry" and clapping....just great."

" I got goosepimples when almost everyone that was leaving ran up to the stage with the lights on and the amps off, and started singing "someone else's train" along with Robert. Pure awesomeness"

THE BEST CURE SHOW I HAVE EVER BEEN TO

setlist aside, robert and the gang have never sounded so good. robert's energy was so high, and his voice was SO STRONG. i have never seen the boys like this.

i was about 50 feet from the stage, leaning against the first barrier, yet my camera was giving me problems. i imagine it fried in the 100 degree weather, but i will try and post as many pics as possible, no matter the quality. i am sure there will be plenty of pics anyway.

every song was epic! i have never heard shake dog shake the way i did last night. it was hard, it was audible, it was crisp, it was scary!!!

fire in cairo was a nice surprise because i had never heard that before.

the day was awesome, but it was especially cool to hear tahitian moon by perry farrell, lol. also, the yeah yeah yeah's were pretty good. my bloody valentine sucked and almost ruined the vibe for the cure.

ok, i got in at 3:30 this morning and have to be at work in a hour. i will post more later on.

u guys missed one hell of a show

I watch all of the web cast ! It was a GREAT show! 
I also recorded it.
I wish that I had been there!

Oh you had more luck than me  There was an error on the web cast. I had to do it with song by song 

THE BEST CURE SHOW I HAVE EVER BEEN TO

This show will remain as one of the highlights in The Cure's career. It also shows how much Robert really cares about his fans.

seriously, who'd have thought that Coachella would be the show of the two to attend?
