Envy, envy

[japanesebaby]

greetings from paris! 

(i've just met david here, waiting for tof and brian (who appears to have got stuck somewhere out there... hopefully he'll find his way o paris sooner or later!)

Poor Brian!!!  Hopefully he makes it!

yes we miraculously ran into him just by accident yesterday - what are the odds for that in a city the size of paris? that was quite funny, i think. although we were around bercy so that helped i guess.


and today we met nevyn ja a friend of his, ola, at the hostel breakfast, they happen to stay in the same hostelas we.

[maccatori]

It's a nice venue, tho this is the first time i've ever been to a gig on my own, which is why i guess i'm posting here now. One more drink & then into the fray! Playing david bowie is all the info i can pass on right now! Times like this i wish i had a curefans tshirt!

[maccatori]

Looks like a proper film recording. A strange day is bloody marvellous.

[maccatori]

People slam dancing a la cure in orange to the walk. And this is half way back! Its a proper party tonight!

[ernest newman]

So the DVD will be called "2008 '2005 Festivals DVD Tour DVD'" and will have 80% of the same songs with the same lineup. Ill buy it, and Im sure everyone else here will but imagine at looking at these two things on the shelf side by side. It would have almost been better if they left on Plainsong and Disintegration from the 2005 Festivals DVD

[Pooka]

I hope someone brings a request sign for the Faith Encore or Forever.

Otherwise it's like what EN said.

It would be funny if they did not play How Beautiful You Are tonight with that blantant Paris reference in the lyrics.

[[labyrinth]]

 

same setlist as in Rome 'till now.

[maccatori]

I imagine its for french tv. I'll happily download it tho. Atmosphere incredible compared to Hamburg. Wish i didn't have to keep going to the bar tho.

[rodney]

With the show being filmed, I bet they'll only play the songs they know perfectly, which probably means no special or new songs.
