ReplyDeleteYeah I was watching Fuse a bit ago. Sad that UTS is cut out of it : /
ReplyDeleteBut still I love it :)

ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMEwE-THNx8
how Robert ends it cracks me up every time
hi everybodyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
ReplyDeleteoh gosh so excited right now!
Craig: Thanks for giving us all the start times for our respective time zones. :) You spoil us!
ReplyDelete2 hours to go!
ReplyDeleteapril, I'll try to record Charlotte for you....I have a dvr but no dvr service. I'll need to come up with a business plan for my hb on why we need it and how we can afford it :)
ReplyDeleteV: You're very welcome.
ReplyDeleteokay so who is taping this then?
ReplyDeletewoohoo! the usual suspects are filing in. It feels like June again. teehee
ReplyDeletei wish i had a time machine!
ReplyDeletejo is future girl, but who is past boy or girl?
cpg- THANKS!
ReplyDeletehey april! how is stumptown?
ReplyDeleteFrom Olivier: RS is being interviewed right now. Said this is the only time they would be playing the whole album live. The second hour will be a very long "greatest hits" encore. "I never ever had writers block!"
ReplyDeleteurgh! its times like these i wish i had been a trust fund baby! *curses the sky*
ReplyDeleteMore from RS: "The new album was recorded as a double, of which 4:13 Dream will be the first part. The second part will be a "dark" album."
ReplyDeleteYes!!! The Dark Dream is still alive!
YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteDark Album For the win!!!!!!!!!
g sez: "i hope they don't call it "4:14 Dark Dream"
ReplyDeleteOr 4:13 Nightmare :)
ReplyDeleteA dark album! =D
ReplyDeleteI was trying to keep away from this place cause I don't wanna hear about the new album before I actually get it... I caved.
My money's on "4:13 Nightmare"... But I hope I'm wrong.
yeah...it's a little "proggy" for my tastes. haha.
ReplyDeletePietro: Robert said the encore would be rather short due to curfew, they had hoped to play longer.
ReplyDeletePietro (9:22pm): Robert said the encore would be rather short due to curfew, they had hoped to play longer.
ReplyDeleteawww :(
Well the main set is the important part! :)
craig, did Friend of COF mention anything at all about promo shows for this album at all?
ReplyDeleteSofia: No. And Robert has already said that they were not planning on playing live again for awhile, so this looks to be it.
ReplyDeletesofia- haha...I don't drink coffee so I can't tell ya
ReplyDelete:c ah...i was hoping they might've changed their mind. for the sake of COF Dream Come True Tour 2009 :)
ReplyDeleteDamn, now I know 2 people who have the new album.
ReplyDeletegod, its time like these when we need a teleportation device.
ReplyDeleteI'd bet there's going to be a tour after 4:13 Nightmare.
ReplyDeleteSofia: 09 is still up in the air. But 08 looks very doubtful.
ReplyDeleteapril, pretty cold there right now? i hear montana/idaho got like 20 inches of snow or something crazy like that!
ReplyDeletesofia- yeah, there's some storm brewing. Its pretty cold here now
ReplyDeleteOMG! Dark dark dark!
ReplyDeleteSaweet, baby!
dream - there better be a tour or there are going to be a lot of disappointed people
ReplyDeleteThat's it....the Greenville Fall Festival will have to do without my family. My butt's staying right here.
ReplyDelete*orders a pizza8
Morris: Sorry, just saw your note. Hope you enjoy the game! Especially the sight of Charles Scott running all over The Swamp, and scoring 4 touchdowns. : )
ReplyDeleteShould be a great game, either way.
Geaux Tigers!
I remember some quote from Robert somewhere i think in responce to the 4:13 Dream music videos. Something like what the cure is all about what they do live on their tours. I doubt they'll not tour after 4:13 nightmare (man everytime i type that, i like the title more and more)
ReplyDeleteI am leaving work early just so I can join the chat...how lame is that?
ReplyDeletehe said it on the Videography
ReplyDeletehow about "4:13 welcome to the terrordome" no?
ReplyDelete"4:13 sleep apena"
april, its NOT lame! it's RIGHT AND GOOD.
ReplyDeleteScrew work! Nothing is more important than Cure chat!!!
ReplyDelete(oh yeah it was on videography)
69la
ReplyDelete...yeah, i need my full attention on this show. I can't do that while working so I must go home! lol
ReplyDelete"4:13 the construction work in nyc never stops even at 4:13 am and i'm slowly going mad"
ReplyDeletei am so sad, not beeing in roma tonight.
ReplyDeletebut i am happy, maybe to hear the new songs very soon.....
i'm downright jealous of the peeps in rome.
ReplyDeletearrghhhh...be back at 5! xo
ReplyDeletename of the dark album:
ReplyDelete4:14 ever unreleased
Aaaahhhh, just finished In Orange, still need to blow another hour. What to do, what to do...
ReplyDeleteI guess we can make jokes about the next album's name for an hour.
Someone call Swifty! We need some jokes!!!
Should we start taking bets on how long this string will be tonight? lol
ReplyDelete*waves to everyone*
ReplyDeletegawd, ive missed the live updates. three hour wait? aww man.
at least we're waiting togethor!
Pffft, three hours for us. You're late, you only have to wait an hour ;p
ReplyDeleteI bet... 300 posts

ReplyDeleteOVER NINE THOUSAND!!!!!!!

ReplyDeletefmjews: Did you record the interview with Robert?
ReplyDeleteArgh, wish I could watch the show live!!!
ReplyDeletefmjews, you are going to be my new hero! :)
Sorry Craig but i'm entered at home right now... I've lost the interview :(
ReplyDeletethistle - hell yeah. I'm sure it will be up before the last fan gets home.
ReplyDeleteLol nearly 100 comments already before anything even happend!
ReplyDeleteAnd i found out how im going to burn my last hour, im trying to de-code the lyrics to baby rag. I'll give up after 3 listens ;p
John Legend (that plays before THE CURE) said the this is his last song...
ReplyDeleteMaybe the SHOW begins before 11PM
Extra half hour? Maybe the super encore is still on! :D
ReplyDeletejohn legend? this is an odd show/festival
ReplyDeletemaybe they start with drowning man ?
ReplyDeleteJohn Legend out of stage... but there is an italian rapper before OURS...
ReplyDeleteThen lead into a 25 minute Faith! HA!
ReplyDeletewhat? the italian rapper is back? how many of them you got there?? DESTROY HIM! WE NEED OUR CURE!
ReplyDeletegoing straightly into pornography which will be followed by watching me fall
ReplyDeleteHmm... Cold without keyboards... very curious
ReplyDeleteI'll try to destroy him, if he should appear on screen!!!
ReplyDeleteNow there is an interview with John Legend...
Does anyone, knows if there´s any link to hear it throw internet or somthing like that????
ReplyDeletepleas im a bit desperate
39 minutes to go.
ReplyDeleteyeah, cold without keyboards.

No links I know of, if there was one Craig would have given it to us
ReplyDeleteBut i don't think it'll be too long before we get the vids. :)
Checking IN!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited, can't wait for the show to start!
*waves to CoF peeps*
Alberto, sadly I think most of us here are a bit desperate :)
ReplyDelete*Waves to Rev*
*peeps waving back* Hi Rev!
ReplyDeletehi rrrrrrrrev!
ReplyDeleteHmm, now im trying to picture cold w/o keyboards in my head.
ReplyDeleteIt's kind of like hearing Plainsong the first time with the new lineup when Roger left. I can actually hear it, sounds cool haha.
30 minutes to go and I am still stuck at work! (ughhhhh)
ReplyDeleteInterview is over
ReplyDeleteNow Marrakesh (italian rapper)....
Been scouring the net for a stream of MTV Italia!
ReplyDeleteI have to see this all posted up on YouTube ASAP! Who is doing this for us!
Can't wait to get the reviews...
Dark Album title: 10:15 Sunday Morning?????!!!
hearing/seeing plainsong without keyboards the first time in 2005 on arte was horrible !!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeletebut the new songs "without" keyboard will be very interesting
think fmjews is doing the vids for us (so praise and hail him)
ReplyDeletefor some reason 'treasure' is in my head right now.
ReplyDeleteoh hormones...i feel like crying. all nostalgic...
drowning - you mean la route du rock that aired on arte on 2005? i loved it!
ReplyDeleteSo long as Craig gives us the link to the vids as soon as he knows where to find them...
ReplyDelete...It will be the most hit YouTube ever!!
I was scared for Plainsong w/o keyboards, but I really love how it turned out. Still has all the epic feel to it, still magical.
ReplyDeleteJLH is stuck in my head for some reason right now ;p
fmjews...
ReplyDelete...get the show posted and you will be given god like status.

ReplyDelete...if only I could have been in Rome...
i've got to go too.
ReplyDeleteg and i have a rough game of pool to get to.

Pietro: UTS is...Wow!! Only One is as usual, Porl's guitar is unusually low.
ReplyDeleteI like The Only One as well. It has a melancholy undertone that I really dig.
ReplyDeleteThe Reasons Why
ReplyDeleteHope they turn up Porl's guitar by Real snow white! Sounds like it's gonna be the real elad on most of the songs
