Pietro: Sirensong is on an acoustic, reminds me of Jupiter Crash. Porl is playing a strange instrument, seems like a keyboard, but is not.
ReplyDeleteV: That ain't poison! : P
ReplyDeleteHMM could that be the infamous keytar?
ReplyDeleteCraig: Oh, you're right... ;)
ReplyDeleteDo not feed The Hungry Ghost!

ReplyDeleteCraig: Actually...I don't think I have! :o
ReplyDeleteTime to make a Switch.
ReplyDeleteYaay!
ReplyDeletePietro: Snow White is really good, very powerful but not noisey. Robert only sings.
ReplyDeletesooo exicted!! porl on strange keyoboard!!
ReplyDeletePietro: Switch starts with a blast! Porl alone rocking on his guitar!!! Very rock and fast overall.
ReplyDeletedid they turn up porls guitar this time? =/
ReplyDeleteah ok i see :)
ReplyDeleteGOOD.
Beware the so-called Perfect Boy.
ReplyDeletesounds like the new stuff is rocking hard! Can't wait for the vids of ... all of them! XD
ReplyDeleteYou mean the Perfect Jerk?
ReplyDeleteI can't think of anything to post except for whines about how bad I want to hear it. Obviously nothing to contribute, but I'll let you know if something worthwhile comes to mind. LOL!
ReplyDeleteI love you Craig!
Olivier: Switch...wow.
ReplyDeleteV: Of course!
ReplyDeleteThanks CPG2.
ReplyDeleteOh girl, he is the one for sure...
ReplyDeleteRev: Nuh uh! That's not what I heard! ;)
ReplyDeletePietro: Perfect boy is perfect! Slower than Mix 13, it seems, and bass is louder.
ReplyDeletei hope they play at least one bside from the singles.
ReplyDeleteThis is so frustrating. I want to HEAR all these new songs--not just get the descriptions. Can't wait to see them all posted on YouTube--hopefully very soon!
ReplyDeleteMmm...love the bass on that one anyway. :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the exploding head version of TPB..
ReplyDeleteDJ: I bet AKOS would kick ass live!
ReplyDeleteThis. Here and Now. With You.
ReplyDeleteThis. Here and Now. With You time? :3
ReplyDeleteGod, I NEED THESE VIDS ASAP!
This show is going by very quickly!! :)
ReplyDeleteHey, Craig, how is it tonight RSx voice and the sound of all the instruments ?
ReplyDeleteThanks..
what - no PHT mention on this thread yet?
ReplyDeleteHa!!
ReplyDeleteyeah, hows roberts voice?????
ReplyDeleteWe've all grown up, DJ. : )
ReplyDeleteMad Bob: Everything is good.
ReplyDeleteand Simon's PHT!!!(LOL!)
ReplyDeleteNOOOO... everyone got old without me??
ReplyDelete*runs off to sofa*
Craig, I think I have to disagree!!!
ReplyDelete*walks away and grows old*
ReplyDeleteHey, what does PHT mean?
ReplyDeleteSleep When I'm Dead...but until then, I'll be posting links to the new songs. : )
ReplyDeleteHere we go... ;)
ReplyDeleteHelsabot: I had to mail Craig to find out!!!
ReplyDeleteLet's say it's to do with our Simon's attire and leave it there!
any commercial breaks on mtv italy ?
ReplyDeleteor a one- through broadcast ???
anybody watchning it on tv now ?
Penis Hugging Tights!
ReplyDeleteJust for my V. : )
SBS and PHTS arent in Rome right now, thats why we're not hearing those reports. Rboert and Si left them in the loving room cuz they forgot to pack ;)
ReplyDeleteAwww, thanks Craig!! :)
ReplyDeletei was told once what it meant.. i whish i hadnt asked haha
ReplyDeleteCraig: You had to be soo damn explicit didn't you!
ReplyDeleteI need to see the vids... but until then!
So that lasted 45 minutes. : P
ReplyDeleteWhat!!
ReplyDeleteOver already?
naah, I think Simon wears those tights to bed.... and he showers in them too. He NEVER takes them off.
ReplyDeleteRobert- I knew what they were, I've made countless comments on the subject.
What is the curfew for this show? I know Robert said that the encore would be truncated--any expectations on how long The Cure will get to play after 4:13 Dream?
ReplyDeleteAfter seeing the PHTs, you let out The Scream.
ReplyDeletelast 45mins?! watthehell...
ReplyDeleteAnd how! ;)
ReplyDeleteRev: I meant 45 minutes of being grown up. : )
ReplyDeleteHello, everyone!
ReplyDeleteSo, the main set only took 45 minutes? That was quick!
helsabot: they had to squeeze the album into an MTV hour (not the same as a regular hour).
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteoh my gosh you scared me craig!! LOL
ReplyDeleteNo, the show is still going!
ReplyDeleteyou belive this are thight whch simon is wearing ???
ReplyDeletethis is his SKIN, no thights.
Wow, this is so great!
ReplyDeleteSo, how do our live reports know which song is which, with the "new" songs? Is Robert announcing each one?
I wonder how the audience is reacting to the new songs??
ReplyDeleteyeah they are bur they are thugging!
ReplyDeleteHi Kate!
ReplyDeletejarbee- I know... I wasn't sure how long they were going to play, or rather, how much time they were given..
I mean do they know it's the new album? Did they say anything about that before they started?
ReplyDeleteAfter this song, It's Over.
ReplyDeleteClever, clever Craig. :)
ReplyDeleteHi helsabot!!
ReplyDeleteooow:( almost over
ReplyDeletethe majority of the crowd in rome prob doesn't realze how freakin' lucky they are
ReplyDeleteJust one song left ¡¡¡¡¡¡
ReplyDeleteNo way.......
C´mon CURE......
¡¡¡ Burn down the house with BRDB !!!
I want to see the links !!!!!
GRRRRRRRRR
Olivier: The Scream ("your voice sounds strange... your eyes are too bright..." wow, this is incredible!)
ReplyDeleteI want so bad to see this, I could almost cry...
ReplyDeleteScream sounds intense, the last two songs just build up on eachother. Very climactic, vids soo, plz!!!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if any in the crowd are confused--Is this really the Cure? I don't know any of the songs. Why aren't they playing "Just Like Heaven?"
ReplyDeleteLOL Jarbee, that's what I was thinking...
ReplyDeleteLOL.
ReplyDeletewell europe has got alot of hardcore cure fans. im sure many of them are in rome right now!
encores start with holy hour ?!
ReplyDeletelol jarbee...
ReplyDeleteRobert: "Thank you, that was 4:13 Dream! See you in a second."
ReplyDeleteHey! What about The Hungry Ghost? So they are not following the original running order of the album after all?
ReplyDeleteGoing to have to head off to 4:13 Dream land now - and awake to search YouTube.
ReplyDeleteThankx all for making this as real as possible
XXX
Already played Hungry Ghost, and yes, it was all in order.
ReplyDeleteOLD Skool FTW!
ReplyDeleteWhat robert said at the end of the set reminded me of Trilogy, like the "see you in 11 years" thing lol
ReplyDeleteI meant Old Skool Encore, FTW!
ReplyDeleteI just want to say thanks to Craig and Pietro and Olivier. This is the best (well, and only) virtual concert I've ever been to! Can't wait to start seeing the clips!
ReplyDeleteBut man, Craig, you sure are fast on the page updates.
Ok back to the show!
hugs, J :D
ROFL REV!!

ReplyDeleteLullaby starts the encore.
ReplyDeletefmjews: How did you like the new songs? :)
ReplyDeleteHopefully no one is pole-dancing onstage!
ReplyDeleteim guessing what they soundchecked is what they will play
ReplyDeleteLOL Scribbles! This one is definitely NOT in Rome! Instead he is skulking in a chilly English dining room whilst his wife watches the X factor next door!
ReplyDeleteLMAAAAO V!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you J. This is a lot of fun.
ReplyDeleteThe Scream is absolutly amazing. It sounds like Forever
ReplyDeleteV: Speak for yourself! : P
ReplyDeleteFMJEWS!
ReplyDeleteHow quick can you get it on youtube?? Okay... GO!
Pietro: It's Over has the best bassline in god knows how many years and that's enough for it to become one of my favorites. Besides that, it rocks.
ReplyDeleteReasons Why: it could be a better single than others
ReplyDeleteSirensong: it has something of Jupiter Crash, but in a better way
Encore goes on
ReplyDeleteFascination street
PJ - silly moi! here i was thinking you flew there! LOOL.
ReplyDeletewhen its done, robert will throw his shirt to the italian girls!
fmjews.. are you uploading ??????????????????
ReplyDeleteFascination St.
ReplyDeleteIt's Over will always be Baby Rag Dog Book to me no matter what. And it's the hardest rocking song The Cure will ever do. Instant classic for me
ReplyDeletegot a call again - listening to fasc sstreet
ReplyDeletei agree omni.
ReplyDeleteim itching for those videos!!
Maybe Pictures on You are enque..
ReplyDeleteRobert sounds amazing
ReplyDeleteVery powerful
ReplyDeleteRobert IS amazing. :D
ReplyDeleteGAH! Have to leave soon!!!
ReplyDeleteReal snow white: it's starting rock, the chorus is more poppish
ReplyDeleteSwitch: it's better that i listen one more time
The Hungry Ghost: it promises very well
And now
ReplyDeleteWrong Number
I can't believe it - wrong number - I'm still on the phone
ReplyDeleteawww. WHYYYYYYYY
ReplyDeleteWrong Number
ReplyDeleteLOL (again) Scribbles! Of the many things I'd like to see Robert do, that is not one of them!
ReplyDeleteHaaah, Wrong Number! I know how everyone loves that one...
ReplyDeletedrowning and v: i have to transfer the video from my dvd recorder to my pc... It will be a long long night
ReplyDeleteI love this song live it really rocks out at the end.
ReplyDeleteIs The Walk the next song ?
ReplyDeleteI love Robert, but I wouldn't want to be smothered in his sweaty shirt... or would I?
ReplyDeleteWill they do the dreaded duo? : P
ReplyDeleteCraig: I was wondering that, tooo. :)
ReplyDeletenot bad encores but I hope they play something that they haven't played for years!
ReplyDelete2 laaaaaaaate... Halo?
ReplyDeleteBEAU! *tackles and hugs*
ReplyDeleteI WANT A BSIDE!!
This Here and Now with you: arab sounds (and so The Scream)
ReplyDeleteThe Scream is absolutly mi favorite one, think at period between The Top and Head, that sound of guitar and a great Robert singing.
I LOVE IT!!!!!
Oh you have to love the dreamers in here. : )
ReplyDeleteJust read it somewhere else - Porl is wearing an undershirt with skulls right now
ReplyDeleteDJ!!!! *Hugs back* (Tickles can end up dodgy)
ReplyDeleteHow are you doing?
I would LOVE to hear them play a foolish arrengement live.
Wonderful PORL on Wrong Number!!!
ReplyDeletefmjews you will be my hero of the night !!
ReplyDeleteDreamers?! I'll have you know, I am a staunch pragmatist Mr. Craig P.!
ReplyDeleteand now
ReplyDeleteThe end of the world
Craig: Hey, come on you're a dreamer too :D. Join the party.
ReplyDeletewrong number - never enough next.
ReplyDeleteany bets ??

ReplyDeleteAww, so no Porl and Simon kiss. :(
ReplyDeletecraig - thats my occupation :)
ReplyDeleteim doing well beau, and you?
LOOOOVE TO FMJEW

No matter how hard I dream, they will never play Twilight Garden or Chain of Flowers.
ReplyDeleteI go for A Forest too Carlos..
ReplyDelete:)
But tonight i´m having only wrong callings...
Let´s see...
;)
DJ - I'm good thanks. Go the flu though :@. But oh, well all this Curey goodness makes me smile.
ReplyDeleteSo glad we were spared the dreaded duo tonight.
ReplyDeleteI'm scared that they will end with BDC
ReplyDeleteAww, now V will cry all night.
ReplyDeleteThe next
ReplyDeleteThe walk
(heart) to my Cure CoF peeps, I must depart! See you soon!
ReplyDeleteI say they end with JLH
ReplyDelete:'( *sniff*
ReplyDeleteBye, Rev!!
ReplyDeleteThe Walk? I thought Robert said he was never going to play that one agian? Or was it Lets go to bed?
ReplyDeleteI thought it was LGTB. :)
ReplyDeleteAww V, you know I'll cheer you up...later. ; )
ReplyDeletehmmm will the 413 post be the link to youtube ?

Bye Rev.....
ReplyDeleteCraig: Aww yeah, don't I know it! ;)
ReplyDeleteI think they should surprise us all and play "Burn" to close the show--I just think that song would ROCK live!
ReplyDeleteI know V, but I can stand acronyms for just so long…
ReplyDeleteim also having missed callings today but we'll see:)
ReplyDelete*mourns with craig over twilight garden and Chain of flowers*
ReplyDelete*mourns with V over lack of Porl and Si onstage makeout session*
and goes on...
ReplyDeleteLOVESONG

ReplyDeleteBye rev. :)
ReplyDeleteMy bet is on FiIL to finish. If not then A forest.
How ever far away...
ReplyDeleteBURN! wow that would be a real treat! that was my first cure song:)
ReplyDeleteCraig: :)
