v said...: Can't wait to see what tonight's set list will look like. :); April 19, 2009 3:48 PM
cwojo23 said...: I like that it has no end time and everyone else does; April 19, 2009 3:48 PM
Michelle said...: whooo hooo Coachella!
Hell ya!; April 19, 2009 3:49 PM
halo eighteen said...: It's probably too late to do anyone a bit of good, but earplugs are very highly recommended, if not required, to tolerate a set by My Bloody Valentine, who play right before the Cure.
I'm sure there will be some kind of noise restriction set on Coachella, but their normal concerts go over 100dB, Kevin Shields of MBV says that when the body experiences sound at that level it thinks it's in danger and releases endorphines and gives the listener a feeling they wouldn't normally experience. This usually happens during the end of their set in the middle of "You Made Me Realise," dubbed as the holocaust section, which is like up to 30 minutes of excessive feedback and walls of sound.
It would suck for this to ruin some unsuspecting person's night of the Cure...!; April 19, 2009 4:25 PM
andythecurefan said...: Me and April are on the road driving to Coachella. Be there soon. Lol at Rev's joke about Los Angeles traffic. Can't wait for tonight's show and thanks to Spiggycat for the photo of the sign, I met her the other day at Amanda Palmer's secret show.; April 19, 2009 4:39 PM
andythecurefan said...: Also April might have or might have not accidentally left the car on the entire time we stopped to eat.; April 19, 2009 4:41 PM
Kate said...: Exciting!

:P; April 19, 2009 4:46 PM
Helsabot said...: ;) Kate.

It seems all of the headliners have no end time.
ALMOST wish I could be there but the heat's going to be brutal!! Stay cool everyone & drink a lot of water!

Have a great show!

love-the-cure said...: A little tired, April?? LOL; April 19, 2009 5:08 PM
Maree said...: The webcast is really nice quality, can't wait to see The Cure!; April 19, 2009 5:27 PM
beachy said...: Apparently I won't be able to watch the webcast cause my windows2000 won't support it. dammit! Oh well, I really need to get some sleep tonight. Catch the youtube videos after work tomorrow.; April 19, 2009 5:42 PM
Aaron said...: the webcast has not worked for me for 3 days, how do i sort it out, i have the move player but it says theres an error :(; April 19, 2009 5:46 PM
TheFigurehead said...: Dang, the Cure broadcast isn't going to start until after midnight for me in Eastern time, and I have school tomorrow :( I guess I'll have to catch some youtube videos tomorrow.; April 19, 2009 5:51 PM
beachy said...: I hope that Robert dedicates something to Mandy/Selkie tonight. I think that would mean a lot to many curefans who are deeply saddened by her passing including myself.; April 19, 2009 5:59 PM
TheFigurehead said...: woah what happened?; April 19, 2009 6:04 PM
Anah said...: Hi V, Helsa, Kate, Maree, everyone from the road (!) and all! We're in for a fantastic evening~*Here's to a wonderful time for all*; April 19, 2009 6:08 PM
beachy said...: http://www.thecuremfc.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=3121&st=0&sk=t&sd=a; April 19, 2009 6:10 PM
TheFigurehead said...: Wow, that's so sad. I didn't know her personally but I recognized her picture from the other various cure sites I've posted at. My condolences go out to her family.; April 19, 2009 6:22 PM
Maree said...: Aaron, what browser are you using, and what does the error say?; April 19, 2009 6:58 PM
andythecurefan said...: Yes, someone please help Aaron, somehow I feel he is our only hope on recording this webcast given so many active COF members in attendance tonight. Me and April are 40 min away driving and we have been on the road for nearly 5 hours from Vegas, be there soon. Plenty of time to see Cure of course. And in all honesty, I'm not quite too sure I want the front rail today. Its gonna be so exhausting at such a festival. Much love to all my Cure peeps watching around the world, and the universe? (Depeche Mode reference)

;); April 19, 2009 7:08 PM
Maree said...: Aaron, if you need a hand, let me know. I will also see what I can do about recording it. I will get on that now.; April 19, 2009 7:15 PM
Maree said...: Yeah, no worries Andy, I have Fraps working, the clip I recorded of PBJ was nice and crisp and clear. I will record The Cure .; April 19, 2009 7:20 PM
Anah said...: Thanks Maree:); April 19, 2009 7:37 PM
Maree said...: But if you need help troubleshooting yours, Aaron, let me know.; April 19, 2009 7:40 PM
Helsabot said...: Awesome that you're recording it, Maree!
Aaron- maybe you just need to update your browser? These things usually work best for me on IE.

Here's to a fabulously-fuck me sideways evening!

...and it would be awfully sweet if they could dedicate something to Mrs. Selkie, too...; April 19, 2009 7:41 PM
sofia said...: please, people, listen to halo eighteen and wear earplugs for the my bloody valentine set. they will probably be made available, but in case they're not, stick some kleenex in(not too far in!) your ears or something. i had ringing in my ears for 3 days after the show and i wore earplugs!

i cant be up late tonight because of work, but i wanted to stop by and say hello. i miss you guys.
lots of love...
xo; April 19, 2009 7:48 PM
Bernie said...: Yeah, Simon kicks ass . Cool pictures . Best bass player ever; April 19, 2009 8:16 PM
v said...: Oh wow, so awesome to see Jo standing next to Simon!!!! :); April 19, 2009 8:22 PM
Craig said...: V: I was so happy to see that! Our Rock & Roll Jo with Si! : ); April 19, 2009 8:25 PM
Michelle said...: wow those are great pics...so jealous!
never been lucky enough to run into/meet any of them.; April 19, 2009 8:30 PM
andythecurefan said...: Yeah Yeah Yeahs are good. I'm about 100 feet from the stage, good view and sound but still not satisfied. I will be near Simon!; April 19, 2009 8:35 PM
altr2elise said...: Hi everyone!!!!

V and Craig - yep, I was pretty happy to see me with Simon too!!! Amazing!

The good news is, I have found a place to set up at LAX, and will be able to be online until about 10.00pm Pacific.; April 19, 2009 8:36 PM
v said...: Jo: I'm so excited and happy for you, that you got to run in to him. How long is your flight from LAX?; April 19, 2009 8:37 PM
lisalovecat said...: ok, I can hear the music, but there is no picture.. anyone ? I installed whtever it was I was prompted to... well hearing is better than nothing I suppose...; April 19, 2009 8:39 PM
altr2elise said...: V - I would never have gone and spoken with him and Keith, if it wasn't for Fuji and Brad. I would have just admired from afar.

The flight LAX to SYD is 14 and a half hours (eek!!!!) and then another 4 and a hlaf to Perth.; April 19, 2009 8:41 PM
Craig said...: Andy: Good luck!

Jo: I know it's not Robert, but it's a good start, right? : ); April 19, 2009 8:41 PM
Craig said...: Jo: Did you talk ti him? Get anything signed? Did he sign Fuji's shirt?; April 19, 2009 8:42 PM
Craig said...: Jo: LA, no X. : P; April 19, 2009 8:44 PM
altr2elise said...: Craig - Fuji had a good chat with him about his cycling and YES, Simon did sign his shirt. I kinda just thanked him for chatting with us, and then kept apologising for bugging him ;)
I had a nice chat with Keith though, and he said he remembered me saying hi to him at O2, so that was very cool.; April 19, 2009 8:44 PM
v said...: Craig: Haha!! ;); April 19, 2009 8:44 PM
Craig said...: And guys, if there Simon has problems tonight, we blame it on Andy. : ); April 19, 2009 8:45 PM
altr2elise said...: Oh, and no, I didn't get anything signed. Brad suggested having our picture taken with the Oz flag, and Fuji and I said 'No, and Simon said 'Yes'. So we did, and after he said, 'That was an ironic smile' - or something similar.

And yes, LAX - LA International Airport; April 19, 2009 8:46 PM
Craig said...: I'm having trouble typing right now. I blame V! : P; April 19, 2009 8:46 PM
altr2elise said...: I don't think there will be problems today - all the bugs will be ironed out, and the jetlag slept away!

ONWARDS!; April 19, 2009 8:47 PM
v said...: Uh oh... >;) Sorry about that.; April 19, 2009 8:47 PM
altr2elise said...: V has that affect on you, Craig :); April 19, 2009 8:48 PM
Craig said...: Jo: The LAX thing was a reference to the RSX thing. : ); April 19, 2009 8:48 PM
altr2elise said...: BTW - Did anyone tell you that there were messages to COF on the jumbotron at the Pearl?; April 19, 2009 8:48 PM
altr2elise said...: LOL - LAX - Sorry, I am 'slightly' muddled. I have lost my voice, and seemingly, some of my mind.; April 19, 2009 8:49 PM
Craig said...: Jo: Blonde moment? : ); April 19, 2009 8:50 PM
v said...: Jo: I was in the same state last time I was at LAX, on my way home from 4Tour shows in Germany. Sigh. :) I very strongly associate that airport with that state.; April 19, 2009 8:50 PM
Craig said...: Yeah, Kate mentioned something about the messages. I wanted to text a hello, but the info Sara gave us, didn't work.; April 19, 2009 8:51 PM
altr2elise said...: Craig - it couldn't possibly be a blonde moment, I had the artificial intelligence refreshed before I came stateside.; April 19, 2009 8:51 PM
Craig said...: Andy is working his way closer and closer to the stage. Photos in a minute.; April 19, 2009 8:52 PM
altr2elise said...: It would have been so cool if you had been able to get a message to come through :), but it was very nice to see COF highly praised in that forum!; April 19, 2009 8:53 PM
altr2elise said...: V - it would have been hard work coming from Germany to LAX - I hate travelling east, especially when you have to cross the international date line. West is sooooo much easier (but I don't know why); April 19, 2009 8:56 PM
sarab543 said...: *waves to craig, V, and jo*; April 19, 2009 8:56 PM
v said...: Hi Sara! :); April 19, 2009 8:57 PM
sarab543 said...: the coachella webcast should be better quality than mine! LOL; April 19, 2009 8:58 PM
altr2elise said...: *running hug, Sara*
So glad to see you have made it home safely.; April 19, 2009 8:59 PM
Craig said...: Hi Sara! Why aren't you in Coachella, Livecasting for all of us? : ); April 19, 2009 9:00 PM
sarab543 said...: *hug* I texted you but I dont think you got it.... you never get my texts for some reason! lol I cant wait for the cure to start... i KNOW that they will make up for what happned at the pearl... i bet they play a long time and i am reallly hoping they play faith; April 19, 2009 9:01 PM
v said...: Jo: Luckily, I flew west to get to LAX from Europe that time. I actually prefer going east, though, because the jetstream helps you get where you're going faster. :D; April 19, 2009 9:01 PM
Craig said...: Sara: Your quality was so much better than I expected. And more than that, it was fun to see it pop on throughout the night. Everyone would get excited when you went live.; April 19, 2009 9:02 PM
sarab543 said...: lol craig because my dad sucks. I would be right up on the rail if it were up to me, but in the future i will get to travel a lot for the cure now! :); April 19, 2009 9:02 PM
altr2elise said...: I really hope that this show starts up where the Pearl left off.

I don't know why I don't get your texts - very odd.

Craig, long story about why Sara isn't there, but I think we have done some excellent groundwork this week to ensure she will be at ALL future Cure shows.; April 19, 2009 9:03 PM
sarab543 said...: lol craig! thats good to hear! I tried to save the battery for the songs that arent played very often... would have gotten faith if it was played... that wouldve been epic!; April 19, 2009 9:05 PM
Craig said...: Andy: "Ran across some rude people, or am I the rude one? Gonna be difficult for a while."

Well what do you expect when you're cutting in front of people? : ); April 19, 2009 9:05 PM
sarab543 said...: but because i am not there andy is there so he better send in reports or ill kick his ass! ;); April 19, 2009 9:06 PM
v said...: Craig: Seriously!!! ;); April 19, 2009 9:06 PM
Craig said...: Andy: "Got rid of them, in front of them. I'm so close Craig. Not yet though."; April 19, 2009 9:07 PM
sarab543 said...: omg paolo nutini is on!! i love him!!!! i didnt think he was going to show up!; April 19, 2009 9:08 PM
altr2elise said...: Andy is freaking awesome!; April 19, 2009 9:08 PM
Craig said...: Andy: "Post in comments for me a big thank you to Sara, she gave me her ticket and I wouldn't be here without her, and without the ride from April from Vegas."; April 19, 2009 9:09 PM
v said...: Aw, that is so sweet. :); April 19, 2009 9:10 PM
sarab543 said...: lol when it comes to the cure andy will do whatever it takes to be up close! haha i remember when he snuck in the pit twice even after getting kicked out the first time at KROQ haha; April 19, 2009 9:10 PM
altr2elise said...: LOL - I told you Andy is freaking awesome! And so sweet, too.

I hope April is feeling better today.; April 19, 2009 9:11 PM
sarab543 said...: andy has my portable charger so hopefully he can update all night; April 19, 2009 9:14 PM
Craig said...: Andy wants everyone to know "that guitarist is SEXY! Nice solo too."; April 19, 2009 9:16 PM
Anah said...: Aw, that is sweet. Sara is def. CoF winner!; April 19, 2009 9:16 PM
Craig said...: Jo: I don't know about April. Andy said she left the car running when they stopped earlier to get something to eat. : ); April 19, 2009 9:17 PM
sarab543 said...: jo what time are ya gonna leave? will you be able to catch the cure?; April 19, 2009 9:17 PM
Anah said...: Andy, LOL. Agreed!; April 19, 2009 9:18 PM
altr2elise said...: Sara - I have to leave at about 10.15 - so will hopefully catch some of the fun.; April 19, 2009 9:21 PM
Craig said...: Just to clarify, Andy was talking about the guitarist from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. : ); April 19, 2009 9:22 PM
altr2elise said...: LOL Craig, yeah yeah yeah - I worked that one out ;); April 19, 2009 9:23 PM
sarab543 said...: aybe ur flight will get delayed and you can see more! lol is that a bad thing to say? and i see paolo nutini in the webcast and he is looking fiiiine as usual :); April 19, 2009 9:23 PM
Anah said...: He reminds me a little of Nick Cave...(Nick Zinner that is).; April 19, 2009 9:26 PM
altr2elise said...: Sara - I never said I would stay to the stay til the end ;)

To be honest, I would prefer my flight to leave on time - I just wanna get this leg of my journey over.

BTW, Fuji is now officially back in Oz; April 19, 2009 9:26 PM
sarab543 said...: yay!! fuji is so cool, hes lk the coolest australian pilot in the world!; April 19, 2009 9:29 PM
sarab543 said...: where is deej? she should be here!; April 19, 2009 9:32 PM
altr2elise said...: Sara - I love Fuji - he was the 'enabler'; April 19, 2009 9:32 PM
sarab543 said...: bells says hi but she cant stay up late so she cant come in here; April 19, 2009 9:35 PM
Craig said...: Andy: "So happy, seven feet from rail."

Photo in a minute.; April 19, 2009 9:35 PM
altr2elise said...: Tell Bells I miss her!; April 19, 2009 9:37 PM
altr2elise said...: Rev says to say "Hi" to everyone too; April 19, 2009 9:37 PM
sarab543 said...: jo- "aww... I miss her too! tell her we'll catch up soon" from bells; April 19, 2009 9:39 PM
Craig said...: Jo: Rev is there with you? She didn't go to Coachella?; April 19, 2009 9:40 PM
Craig said...: Andy: "Somebody gave Simon's tech a plastic bag, didn't see who or what it was."; April 19, 2009 9:44 PM
altr2elise said...: Craig - Rev IS at Coachella - we were texting; April 19, 2009 9:49 PM
Craig said...: Oh! Duh! : ) Just got a text from her. Her e-mails are backing up and not being sent to me. : (; April 19, 2009 9:51 PM
altr2elise said...: Craig - yeah, she is having problems with texting.; April 19, 2009 9:54 PM
Craig said...: Andy: "My bloody valentine on now and yes they are loud. Not necessarily at rail, but close, met some cool people. One from costa rica. Gonna smoke some weed with them. Yes!"; April 19, 2009 10:01 PM
sarab543 said...: LOL andy told me he found some weed. hahaha; April 19, 2009 10:07 PM
altr2elise said...: Andy: Behave yourself, young man ;); April 19, 2009 10:08 PM
Anah said...: Andy is going to have so much fun!

I wish they were showing My Bloody Valentine's set.; April 19, 2009 10:09 PM
Anah said...: You'd have to be blind not to find some pot at Coachella, it's literally everywhere :)

Which reminds me of tonight's Family Guy, it cracked me up, "Everything's better with a bag of weed!"; April 19, 2009 10:10 PM
Michelle said...: ugg, i know i wanted to view the MBV show, not fair!; April 19, 2009 10:11 PM
Craig said...: Andy: "Getting to the rail was like climbing a building, its better if you don't look down. There are probably thousands behind me."; April 19, 2009 10:15 PM
sarab543 said...: andy said "tell cof that people hid alcohol in sunblock bottles, why didnt i think of that? also MBV are really loud. I should have listened" i think he means about bringing earplugs lol; April 19, 2009 10:15 PM
Dumb Anguish said...: No Jumbotron there? I was having a ball with the text messaging at the Jumbotron at the Pearl Show!

Vegas was so much fun (where else can a guy offer you weed and a hooker proposition you within a five minute time span?) But its good to be back in boring old Nebraska :)

Jo, I was so glad to finally meet you! Even though we only talked for a couple minutes. I loved your pic with Simon!; April 19, 2009 10:17 PM
Anah said...: LMAO:

Craig said...: Andy: "I'm really enjoying this, they are just too loud."; April 19, 2009 10:38 PM
Anah said...: They will air the Cure at 10:10 Pacific, I'm not sure what plug- ins you need though?

Pop Encore, Old School, 17 Secs and Faith...not in that particular order.

:); April 19, 2009 11:11 PM
altr2elise said...: I hope they get Faith - it is almost RSX's birthday after all; April 19, 2009 11:12 PM
Pussycat said...: Maybe we'll get the Faith encore that didn't happen Friday.; April 19, 2009 11:13 PM
Morris said...: (i really don't think they'll play Faith at a festival); April 19, 2009 11:13 PM
Helsabot said...: Stop it Morris! Grr! *hugs*X)

At least Andy smoked some weed, maybe that's helped to ease some of the pain! Ouch!; April 19, 2009 11:15 PM

Michelle said...: oh yeaa boooyyyeee
flava flaaav
haha, this is pretty cool watching most of the artists there. i like that i can sit in the comfort of my home and not have to bop around with the other sweaty smelly people. :D EXCEPT the Cure would be the only exception i would bop around to.

so my boyfriend and I were wondering if robert is putting his lipstick on boppin to PE in the background. hehe you think? maybe Porl is groovin'???; April 19, 2009 11:18 PM
Helsabot said...: Flava Flaaaaaaaav! Oh good lord....; April 19, 2009 11:18 PM

Maree said...: Public Enemy are a class act. Love these guys. This is a good performance.; April 19, 2009 11:20 PM
Helsabot said...: Mr Craig Sir? How many more minutes until The Cure??; April 19, 2009 11:24 PM
fuchsia-kst said...: YESSSS the webcast is back on. PE is a little poppier than I remember them...; April 19, 2009 11:24 PM
Morris said...: Dang... 1:10am EST before the webcast starts. dang.; April 19, 2009 11:25 PM
fuchsia-kst said...: I'm laughing at the image of Porl and Robert doing the moves to Terminator X...yeeaH boyz...; April 19, 2009 11:25 PM
Craig said...: Helsa: They should be on now, but I think MBV ran late. Checking with Jen.; April 19, 2009 11:25 PM
sarab543 said...: oh god i want sirensong and faith too, I was hoping sirensong at the pearl; April 19, 2009 11:25 PM
Morris said...: Chuck D has the most awesome rapping voice - plain flat out intimidating!; April 19, 2009 11:26 PM
Helsabot said...: crap I'm doing some last minute things, don't wanna miss my BOYS!; April 19, 2009 11:26 PM
Craig said...: For those wondering if The Cure are watching PE, probably not, since they are on a totally different stage than TC.; April 19, 2009 11:27 PM
muldfeld said...: I know this might sound rude to those providing reports and stuff, but I don't think it's fair to push into the crowd. A few times, I've made the effort to get there early and really rude people who arrive late push and shove and wade through to the front and block my view.

If there's lots of space, fine, but I hope people aren't really pushing hard.; April 19, 2009 11:28 PM
Craig said...: Helsa: The webcast doesn't start until 10:10pm pacific.; April 19, 2009 11:28 PM
Morris said...: Flava Flav stage dives feet first!!!

OUCH!; April 19, 2009 11:29 PM
Craig said...: Fuck Public Enemy, we want The Cure!; April 19, 2009 11:30 PM
Michelle said...: I thought that the stage that PE is on is the bigger stage? Wouldn't the cure need the bigger area or is the other stage just as big?; April 19, 2009 11:31 PM
fuchsia-kst said...: I'm watching PE. I love these guys.

Now I want Robert to shout "y'all got me?" and jump into the audience too since it was also HIS 50th birthday. heh heh.; April 19, 2009 11:31 PM
sarab543 said...: "at simons side, no cure peeps just new ones. really squished" - andy; April 19, 2009 11:31 PM

Craig said...: Michelle: Cure are on Main stage, PE is on Outdoor Theatre stage.; April 19, 2009 11:32 PM
Anah said...: The Cure are on the main stage and PE on the secondary I think.; April 19, 2009 11:33 PM

dj scribbles said...: why are they showing public enemy and not MBV on at and t? :(; April 19, 2009 11:35 PM
muldfeld said...: The most egregious thing I saw was waiting to see Radiohead and this bitch and her asshole friends barge in front of me -- I mean really push, then she ties her hair up, so it blocks my and others' view even more, and then when some guy wants to get ahead because he says he's meeting his friend ahead -- and it seemed legit because he was carrying a beer -- she refuses. Hypocritical whore! She also talked during a few of the songs; luckily me and some others were able to "shush" her. On the way out, her friend also shoved right into me.

At least people know how to behave at the opera.; April 19, 2009 11:36 PM
Mad Bob RJS said...: Let´s go on, CURE...

SMASH THAT STAGE ¡¡¡

muldfeld said...: Whoa. This AT&T footage is great quality. Thanks for the link and all the updates, as usual, Craigers. Caprica is out in 2 days!; April 19, 2009 11:37 PM
