It's for sure that cameras filmed the shows in Roma and Paris... do you think Rob & Co. want to made a 4 Tour DVD? What do you think about that? Any news or rumors?
actually i didn't even see the cameras in Rome !!! :-D

actually i was just going to ask about this... there were cameras there in rome?
would have been impossible to miss seeing them if they were anything like in bercy. ;)

Theres a strong rumour that the Paris show will be released as a DVD :smth023
There was an information somewhere in the web that Bercy will be released on DVD and BluRay same time
...but there were also people there in bercy who said they had heard from "a reliable source" that it was filmed for french TV (arte).
by the way, at the moment cure-concerts.de also says "Pro-shot for French TV":

maybe andreas knows something...
but what about cameras in roma? so far i heard no-one talk about these - if there were caeras, i tink people would have spotted it and talked about it by now... (or have i just been blind qand miss that conversation?).
could someone for instance post some concert pics from roma where cameras can be seen? :?:
If there is a planned DVD, I'd advise anyone thinking of sharing a recording from filmed gigs on dime. You'll be in violation of policy and could be shown the exit door. Hmmm...I was going to put up my Paris master over the weekend. Now, not so sure. What's our stance on this issue? I suppose there are other torrent sites (Pirates Bay has been used by others in similar situations).

Partial gig is supposedly to be broadcasted "soon" on french TV.
There were NO cameras in Rome, apart of usual cameras that can record 3 first songs. I was near the mixing desk and i had a great view on stage, and on arena, so I would definitely SEE if there WERE cameras.
Crowbi - but if it is not released yet - what is a problem? I think that if it is released all recordings will be banned. But for now... What do you all think?
(Not that I am wanting this recording of crowbi :roll: )

there's no official info for any planned dvds - if someone knows where it said so, please post a link. so far it's just been rumoured, and it's more likely that there will be a TV broadcast of some kind coming up.
so where's the violation?

Thanks for the info: so the rumours about Roma are wrong.
The cameras in Paris are visible on photos posted in curefan gallery too. ;)

it was pretty impossible to not notice it in bercy as those huge booms were swinging above the crowd all the time.
out of curiosity i was paying attention to some camera work there in bercy and noticed that at least on certain songs they did have a lot of movement/continuous trucking shots with both in front of the stage cameras and the ones on booms: so i'm expecting good stuff there, nothing sleepy and static as we've sometimes seen... (for instance on Tr... oops.)
so let's hope the director (whoever it is!) does a good job with the footage!
Quote from: japanesebaby on March 21, 2008, 09:45:28

Anton Corbijn :D (I wish it was...)
He's Ducth :-D
And very good
Tim Pope ?

oh yes, now wouldn't that be something! ;)
(what's he been doing lately anyway? :?:)
anton corbijn: i deeply and thoroughly admire his work but not sure if he'd be the right choice here. i think the cure would need someone... more edgy, more openly energetic so to speak. imo corbijn's language is more static, it does have enormous power but it's more like hidden strength. i think the cure would benefit from something that was more straightforward. consideirng the songs they were doing on this tour. had they been mainly playing 'faith' stuff and all that, then i'd maybe think differently.

He seems to be doing nothing.
the last thing he directed was "Iggy & the Stooges: Live in Detroit" (2004), but since then, no news were heard from him.
buuuut, i read right now somewhere: "
He is rumoured to be working again in 2008 with The Cure."

i agree with you.
Corbijn is a GREAT director, but for this moment of the cure , he wouldn't be the best exactly for the reasons you said. ;)

I'd easily prefer static, to be honest, all this mtv-type of stuff that is currently so in fashion I simply hate - not able to concentrate 1 sec on any person and stuff + enhance it with lots of effects? that would be damn horrible... obviously it depends on the songs, though - I have nothing against progressive filming...
Anton Corbijn - have huge respect for him, did some of my fave videos/Photo shoots + the bloody marvellous Control movie (for all even slightly interested - make sure to at least watch it once...) - but as said, also have my doubts it would work with that lineup... still a shame that he didn't record the prayer tour in black+white with grainy pictures in his style... that would have been a definete dream...
if it is released, just hope it won't end in such overproduced stuff like Show - and that they include the COMPLETE gig...

i hate it too, of course - i think pretty much anyone with any sense in his/her head hates it. it's crap.
but who said it has to be idiotically "MTV-ish" to be energetic? i didn't say anything about any effects either (and btw i mostly hate all those effects on festival dvd, i hope they never try that again).
but i'd like to think there are "a couple of" different ways to direct/edit a concert dvd/broadcast than just two: static or MTV.
(btw when i posted i already knew someone would misunderstand me and bring this up)
I just hope that they include an audio disc or a link on the dvd to high-quality mp3s of the songs. Wilco did that recently on a Jeff Tweedy solo acoustic dvd - you buy the dvd and can download the whoe show as mp3s.
only to throw my 2 cents in the "reliable source" ongoing process : a friend of mine had a pass backstage from & with the filming crew, and asked someone there about this --- they are the same people who shot saint-malo 2005, and have apparently been "invited" by robert smith who had been happy with the result.
there would be 2 projects apparently, one for the aforementioned DVD, and one for a TV broadcast on Virgin 17 (formerly Europe 2, who broadcast Chorus 1979 this year). i have no idea if these are complementary or not, though.

thanks for this info. i actually did hear the same info about the TV crew while at bercy but couldn't be entirely sure if it was just a rumour then.

I refer you to the technical section, and this thread in particular:
http://curefans.com/index.php/topic,3539.0.html
I would like to probably see two versions of DVD release:
a live version ( i love trilogy ) but to see them in concert shows just how wicked they are, not to mention reliving them in concert.
and possibly a few video clips.. ( way past 80's & 90's stuff) I'm not sure if Pope is the man... but this would HAVE to include the new songs/album!!
Well if they don't do a DVD, they're missing out on some cash there aren't they!

that wouldn't be the worst then... still find it strange the band did not used the recording of St. Malo (as shown on ARTE - which I assume exists as full concert in their vaults) + enhanced it with 5-8 songs shot on other festivals instead of this horrible mess that the 'Festival' DVD was... the directing of St. Malo was quite pleasing, I thought as well...
still think it would be strange if the whole Bercy show would be released by the end of the year months after a new album... and I can't imagine to see that released earlier than fall (if it is relesed on dvd that is of course) - or they really do a second leg of the tour when the new album is out + record a show there as well + do a mixture or have Bercy as kind of a safety option if another recording fails...

I'd like to see every single show they have ever performed on dvd if it were possible so certainly I'd want this one. I hope it will be the entire show and not selected songs.
As awesome as a 4tour DVD would be, am I the only one who thinks that Porl's appearance is really creepy in a Mick Marrs kind of way? It just freaks me out to look at him, even though I really love his guitar playing.

almost completely correct, but I still want a new DVD. And I am really sick of just having Show and In Orange on VHS.

Anton Corbijn IS Dutch, at least...He spoke very very Dutch when I met him and he gave me his autographe :-D
But yeah who knows, he might be born as a Russian....But I really doubt it.
