    Really would love to go to this. I was away this week so I come home to find out that not only The Cure are playing in London again but all the tickets are already sold out :(

    Oh well, I'll keep checking

    And I had to catch the last Dr Who episode online haha.

    I have 2 tickets (RAH - standing) but noone to join me... if anyone is interested in joining me and having a great day (or even a few days) together in London, contact me: kindred@scarlet.be . Conditions: 1. you love the cure^^ 2. you don't think they are obliged to play more or they do the gigs for the money 3. you are not homophobic (I am a 33 yo gay guy from Belgium) Even people that can not afford the ticket may contact me. I DO NOT SELL THE SPARE TICKET

    Jellekindred, I'm a bit confused. Are you selling your 1 spare ticket or not? Are you saying you are only selling it to someone who will go with you to the show? Please clarify this if you can. Thank you.

    I phoned the RAH box office this morning @ 09:00 and was sold 2 choir tickets (together). This came as something of a suprise to me but I'm happy to present it as evidence that returns do come up, even for high demand, sold out concerts. The RAH confirmed that there are still quite a few unsold single 2nd tier box tickets @ £125. You would share with 4 others in 5 person box. Not an ideal situation but possibly better than some other routes in. Hope this helps and good luck.

    Thanks to the amazing fans of the band via here and cureconnections I have managed to nab myself a single ticket in a second tier box. Not what I would've wanted in an ideal world, but it's better than not going at all. Honestly, without the flow of info via here and cureconnections plus twitter I'd never have got one. To say I am over joyed is an under statement.
    I can't thank you all enough!!! :D

    But now I am going alone, so I'm hoping I can at least meet up with some fans beforehand so I'm not a total billienomates!

    I think it's great that people are working together so that those who missed out don't have to pay the outrageous prices on viagogo, getmein and eBay. I so nearly bought one and I'm glad I waited!

    and i'm also sure that you can remove the seats to the back of the box if the other four are willing to do this.

    I wouldn't mind sharing one of those boxes with others. : ) This is probably something that we should all keep in mind for NYC and LA. Check on those single seats left in the boxes and areas like that.

    That's also a good tip in general. If you don't mind going alone, or at least sitting alone, you can usually get better tickets by searching for single seats vs. 2-4 seats together.

    And I hope more people will hold strong, and not buy from the ticket touts/brokers. Make them sweat, make them get nervous that they'll be stuck with all of these tickets, and watch the cray prices tumble. Even if you don't get a ticket before the show, get down to the RAH that night, if you can, wait until the very last minute, and hope you can get a last minute ticket from one of them, at a fair price.

    Good news ? I really hope so. I went here and there on the intenet and feel that brokers tickets are NOT selling well. It could mean, and it's all I wish for those who still haven't catch tickets at a reasanable price, that price will decrease. It's a bet to take but being patient could allowtfans to screw brokers up. Good luck to everyone. PS : my little finger told me that Paris 2008 DVD could come out soon...

    Yes but promised not to say more and who talked to my little finger. The previous label which was distributing the programme no longer does. I think that The Cure had to wait a bit before releasing it as the Trilogy Blu-ray was coming out. It seems that the whole concert has now been worked for a DVD release. A new version of the broadcast has recently been broadcasted on Franch TV Direct Star. And arrangements may have been found to distribute the DVD. I hope that Eagle Vision is involved as they contributed to the Trilogy success which sold more than 200,000 copies in the US, about 600,000 worldwide (more than 4:13 Dream.... thanks Geffen/Universal for your huge efforts in promoting this splendid record and screwing up the release scheduling of the 4 singles!) and got gold and platinum certifications in several countries.

    @ Fabien G
    It was a fantastic gig. Bercy was flying and the crowd was just incredible. Cure concerts in Paris are always special but this one was the best to film. I went there with fans but also with music lovers who wanted to see if The Cure were the brilliant band journalists have been describing. They couldn't beleive what they saw. So the DVD will probably be at the level of Trilogy. Festival was an unexpected gift, Paris 2008 will be a masterpiece. 800,000 attended this tour and lots of them would love to get a souvenir...

    I was at the concert in Paris too, David, wonderful evening indeed. I am not much found of the way Trilogy is filmed I must say, and got much more excited at the view of Paris 2008 the other night.
    It seems 2011 will end wonderfully.

    186 tickets still remaining on the biggest bastard broker and lowest price slowly going down. Let's be patient, especialy if you're londoners. I had to buy some tickets to ensure I wouldn't travel from France with no tickets in my pocket but feel I rushed to early.

    Are you French ? I love Trilogy also because I was supposed to be in Berlin but had had to deal with a fatal accident in my company and to cancel everything but also because these albums are my favorite and played by my favorite line up. I'm surprised you don't like the way it was filmed...

    Hi!
    I wish all of us could get this ticket. Is face value for god sake!!! .I have been trying to get the ticket for all these days and wow now I know there's cool people like you out there,a real Curefan.
    There's no reason why I and not other one should have this but I will try...cause I really want it!.
    I am an artist (visual) and have cancelled an exhibition in my home country just because of this gig. Is something so important for me that I just can't miss out. all the other things can wait. Is just heartbreaking that I won't go...cause till now I am not going...reason why? I can't afford more than £150 for a ticket. I have one some artwork based on The Cure also... what else? ah... I just am a very lovely girl ? hahaha :)

  74. IrishcureOctober 11, 2011 at 6:34 PM

    @ Tom.

    The problem you are going to have is that most of the people on here do deserve the ticket. Its something about Cure fans. Whilst there may not be millions of us those who are fans tend to stick to being fans of the band for many many years and so all deserve the chance to buy the ticket.

    I really like the way you have approached it to make it as fair as possible but seeing as someone has already bought flights & accommodation think they should be priority but then again how many fans have done this already (me included).

    How about you do a lottery maybe you pick a number from 1-100 and the person who picks the number first here on the blog gets to purchase the ticket??(with Craigs ok on using his list of course).

    Just a suggestion.
    Fair play to you for doing this by the way.
    See you all in london (hopefully with a ticket :-) )

    For Tom, from Nicole:

    Hi Tom!

    I saw there are already lots of messages for you from people who want this ticket just as much and desperately as me, but even if I have no real chance to get it, I will try!

    Why I should get it and not someone else… I can’t say.

    I know I’m not as long a Cure fan as many of the others here, only since 2004 which unfortunately also means I missed most of the ‘fun’ already, like all the great tours and especially “Trilogy” which was even in my home country not far away and with some of my favourite albums played live … but I didn’t know The Cure back then, so I missed it and I still regret it every time I watch videos from it!

    Now this special event will happen and they will play again one of my most favourite albums, “Faith”, with my all-time favourite song “All Cats Are Grey” and guess what, the day the ticket sale was announced and started I had no internet, so I didn’t even get a little tiny chance to get tickets from the official sellers before they sold out. And now like many others I can’t afford an overpriced ticket from one of the tout sites.

    But I don’t want to miss this again cause I really NEED to see this show, not only because it is so special for me, but I NEVER saw them before … it would be my first Cure concert ever!

    I’m also sure it would be my only chance to hear most of these songs played live, including “All Cats Are Grey” which I love so much that I even use it as username for my FB and deviantart profile: http://allcatsaregreyart.deviantart.com/ (btw I have lots of Cure inspired art there too if you want to see how passionate (obsessed?) I’m about them.)

    Sorry for the long message and the begging, I think everyone here has good reasons and would deserve the chance to get a ticket and it will be hard to choose only one, so even if I have no chance, thank you for the kind offer anyway.

    Love,
    Nicole

    I'll just throw this out there and see what happens...

    I have a "Stalls" ticket (M/9 122) that I am very excited about, but I would love to have a standing/arena ticket if anyone is interested in swapping. I don't care about the price difference.

    I am picking up my ticket at will call the night of the show, so we could just do the swap in person beforehand, or maybe at the pub GTG.

    E-mail me at gary(dot)swearengin(at)gmail(dot)com if you are interested.

    so i don`t know if its a good one,when i tell you..i`m a great fan since i was 14 years ( now i`m 40 )..my love to them is unbroken since this time and i had my best moments with their music.they has accompied and helped me thru the high and deep times in my life. my birthday is the same like robert smits and i feel very " soulmated" to him because he has the same crazy mind like me ( in a good way).

    it`s very calming to know another person think the same way like yourself..

    but the biggest reason is to meet there all the nice and great people from all over the world,who share this great feeling and love to music and the cure so much like me..because thats whats connect us all for ever!!!!!!!!!!!!


    the plane tickets are already booked and payed and it`s up to you to give the greatest moments and memory for life!

    i have to thank you anyway and wish you all the best..

    Guys!I know this is completely off-topic but I need your Cure-help! I have to make a report really soon in linguistics, in specific "how listeners notice the use of language in lyrics". To do this I must analyze the results of a survey. If you have a couple of minutes to spare I would soooo appreciate it if you could answer a couple of questions on this link:
    http://www.kwiksurveys.com/online-survey.php?surveyID=OJNHMO_fb79c7cd
    I just thought it would be great if people who I have my favorite lyrics in common with had their input.

    @Tom

    Well, first one of the uncountable reasons why _I not_ deserve your ticket:
    I saw them live more than 70 times over the past 20 years, including many special shows in special venues, so I had better consider myself a lucky bastard compared to many others here looking for a ticket to see their favourite band at all!

    And now my weak try to apply for your offer:

    Years ago I would have just booked the flight and tried to get in anyhow at the night of the show (it worked out fine almost every time I did so), but since I have a 3 year old kid now, it's not as easy anymore for me to put such kind of adventure trips into reality ;-) If I had a ticket for sure, my family would come along with me to London on a short holiday trip, which would also mean the very first time on a plane for the little guy! :-)

    Secondly, I read many people people are trying to trade in their seat tickets for standing tickets... I would do that if I get your standing ticket, since in my old days now, I'm quite fine with a comfortable seat and don't feel the urge anymore of getting as close to the front as possible and/or diving into moshpits like we did when we were young ;-)

    P.S. if I don't get your ticket in the end, I still might encourage myself, feel the old drive again that I haven't felt in long time and just book the flight anyhow and try to get in somehow ;-)

    Cheers from Switzerland

    i dont know, i guess 7chopper7's anniversary is the most charming reason to give away your ticket... :)
    BUT
    i would like to have a ticket because:

    - i am a huge fan and my first concert was at the 16.11. 1996 (so it would be somekind of nearly an 15 year anniversary for me)

    - i wanted to invite my boyfriend to a trip to london and the concert as a birthday present (so i would search for another ticket as well)

    - it would be his first time to see the cure live (can you imagine????)


    and i dont have to explain to you or the other readers/commentators here what the cures music can mean to us/me... it makes you ache and cry because of the beauty and intimacy and overwhelmingly happy to be alive, so you can listen to such intense and heartgripping sounds and lyrics at all

    either way, if i can go or not, i wish all of you a great great great show - an it surely will be!
    cheers,

    Not sure if anyone/everyone else knew this already but to help with my travel plans, I emailed the RAH to ask what time the doors opened and if there were any arrangements for Arena ticket holders (such as wristbands) and got this reply:

    "The Doors are due to open at 6.45 pm. We are unlikely to issue wristbands, although this is decided by the front of house team nearer to the date of the event."

    What time are people planning to join the queue?

    Dear Tom,

    I would like you to sell this ticket to Craig Swearengin who posted below yours on COF, who is looking for a Standing Ticket, he himself as a Stalls M Ticket row 9 seat 122.

    I am still looking for one ticket, not for myself but for by best friend, I have seats for myself and my other friend already, Stalls M, row 9 seat 123 &124 (which I can confirm). Now that is what I call FAITH, that this comes up.

  95. CraigOctober 13, 2011 at 12:05 PM

    For Tom, from Gary:


    I just wanted to add a few words to Treaq's original message. I also want to "play the game," as Tom has requested. Treaq, I hope we have a fair shot at this! So, first of all, Craig, I hope you will recognize me as a long-time CoF fan and Cure fanatic. Thanks for your help and all the information you provide. I think I go back to the beginning of CoF, and I was obsessed with the Babble e-mail list around the same time. I've been a cure fan since 1989 or so.

    Also, I want to make it clear that I do not know Treaq, although we have exchanged a couple of recent e-mails about Reflections tickets. You have to admit that it is pretty serendipitous that I randomly got a seat right next Treaq's seats, and that we both visit CoF. And, as Treaq mentioned, this does give you the opportunity to please several Cure fans, and not just one.

    Please note that both of us will be traveling internationally for this show...me from Germany, where I now live, and Treaq from The Netherlands, I believe. That's got to show some dedication there, right? I really am not that concerned about the financial side of it, but in addition to the ticket costs (which I believe were even higher for Treaq due to not being able to get them in the inital sale?), there are airfare and hotel fees, etc. We are both clearly doing this out of love!

    So, why might I deserve to be able to buy an Arena ticket? Well, first of all, I really thought I had one. I was diligent when tickets went on sale, and I had an Arena ticket in my shopping cart as soon as the sale started. I went through the entire purchasing process before I got an error message that my order could not be completed. Of course, I freaked out...this process took a few minutes, and by the time it was done, I found myself ticketless and the show was, for all intents and purposes, sold out. I had a work meeting half an hour after the show went on sale, and I was devastated. I dedicated the next 23 minutes to maniacally updating all four ticket websites I was aware of until I found an available ticket. This took many, many rounds of refreshing and seeing tickets available, only to find that the ticket had been sold by the time I clicked on the link. I was finally able to get a ticket in the Stalls, and I am extremely grateful and excited about that. But, I want to be on the floor (if possible), and I never got over that Arena ticket that I had but lost.

  96. CraigOctober 13, 2011 at 12:05 PM

    Part 2 from Gary:


    Next, why the Cure, and why Reflections? I am not old enough to have seen the "drop C logo" Cure play, or even to have been aware of the band at that time, but it is my favorite period in their history. I first became aware of the band probably in 1986 with American re-release of Let's Go to Bed. I was nine. A few years ago I found a cassette where I had recorded that song and a few others off the radio. I got more into the band around Disintegration. Fascination Street was my first favorite Cure song, and was also a main factor in both me becoming a guitar player AND having a hard time deciding between guitar and bass. After that point, I became obsessive. Literally? As with many of us here, I suppose, I didn't listen to much of anything else during high school. I devoured everything I could get my ears, eyes, and hands on. When I got off to college and discovered the Internet and e-mail and Babble and tape trading, things got really out of hand. While other people had friends and went out and partied and drank (okay, I participated in some of that too, of course), I checked e-mail too often and spent all my time and money on tape trading and listening to Peel Sessions and demos and every live show I was able to get my hands on from the band's entire career. The Swing Tour was particularly exciting because, for the first time, I was able to follow it real time, read peoples' reviews, see the setlists, the occasional picture, etc. as well as being able to collect recordings of most of the shows shortly after they happened. Coincidentally, a friend sent me some pictures from the Cure's show at The Gorge in George, WA. After seeing those pictures, I had really wanted to see a show there. I ended up moving to Seattle in 2004, and eventually saw many shows there...it's even better in person than in the pictures. I even saw The Cure there in 2008. My first show was in 1992. Tuesday, June 9. Woodlands Pavilion, Houston, TX. I was 15 and couldn't drive. I made my mom (who also likes the cure and even saw them again in 1996) take the day off work and drive us downtown to the Hard Rock Cafe for lunch (the Cure guitar that was supposed to be there was nowhere to be found, by the way), and then back up to the north side for the show so that we could get there a couple hours before the gates opened. I don't know why, now...I was able to buy some t-shirts beforehand and we listened to Annie Lennox's "Why" being played over and over and over again on the PA. I still love that song. But there wasn't much else to do other than wait, trembling with anticipation. I was not disappointed. I have been lucky enough to see them about 10 times in all now. Not as often as many, but I'm glad to have been able to see them that many times. My last show was Coachella 2009, and I was blown away and literally brought to tears at the end of the show when they first cut the PA, then the stage sound, then the stage power, and the band just kept playing. Punk. Fucking. Rock. It was the most amazing concert moment I've ever seen. Hopefully, that is, until Reflections...


    So, how are we doing here? Is anyone still reading this? :) Tom, I would really appreciate it if you would be willing to sell me your Arena ticket. I would then be happy to sell or trade my Stalls ticket to Treaq (I care about the ticket, not the price difference).

    Thanks,

    Gary Swearengin

    For Tom, from Dario:

    The morning the tickets went sold out I was waiting since 8 (UK time) online on the many pages the tickets were sold...nothing to do. I could only get one of the cheaper tickets (for 27 pounds)....but it's not what I needed. I was really disappointed, and since then I always refresh the website of the RAH hoping that new tickets will come out... I need a standing ticket in a Cure concert. In Taormina (20/08/2005) I could not manage to sit down on that chair, even if it was first line (you can see in some videos that there's a guy with long hair always standing and dancing alone...well...that's me). Since the first time I saw them (2004 in Naples, I was 13) I always can get the first line. I saw them 8 times, this will be the 9th. And I need that ticket. The Cure are the band of my life, and this concert will be so great...When I saw the videos of Sidney I was crying...
    I really appreciate that you are not trying to raise up money selling this ticket, it's really fair from you.
    There will be someone lucky...I hope to be that one. Anyway see you in London! I'll be outside the RAH really early at morning (maybe the night before). If you sell me that ticket you'll be my Hero.

    I like the idea of special show; I saw the trilogy in Bruxelles, it was fantastic

    I want to discover the ambiance and the sound of the 80’ beginning

    The best reason: to have a French fan at this concert

    Thanks you for the dream

    The seat is located in Second Tier 75 5. I'm still waiting for the ticket to arrive. I guess I'll get it next week.
    If you are interested send me an e-mail at garob6@libero.it.

    I have three tickets on sale for the london show. Block K row 4.

    Payment with paypal required so I know you're serious. I don't want any profit but no loss either. That means 3x(125 GBP + 10 GBP booking fee ) + transaction costs + paypal charges 3.4% + currency conversion + shipping costs = EUR 515 + shipping costs, unless I manually give the tickets to you before the concert (then no shipping costs).
    Paypal will also protect you as a buyer with money-back guarantee.

    Prefer to sell all three together. Also email me if you want only 1 or 2 tickets, perhaps there's a match with someone else in the same situation.

    wow! there seems to be quite a few tickets surfacing all of a sudden? I would still suggest going thro the box office by phone.
    I wish I had not panicked and paid for the cheap seats [standing gallery - although i have been told by others that it is stilll a good experience].
    remember i have a spare one [sunnyb92@yahoo.co.uk]

    In an effort to find myself some cancelled tickets, I now have extra tickets, two Choir tickets together (£150)and one Loggia (£150) (by queens box). I will sell for face value.

    Send me a message if you want them.

    What is the consensus on whether all the tickets have been despatched yet? Our arena tickets haven't pitched up yet and I have to confess to feeling slightly anxious! I notice that Dream13 says they are still waiting but should I be concerned? (Sorry to anyone who is still looking for tickets as they prbably have more reason to be worried!) Just wanted a straw poll on if most people have them yet!

    Hi. I have 2 spare tickets for RHA concert.
    They are located in Second Tier 68 5 and Stalls L/2 74.
    Each is for face value, that means 125+10+2=137 gbp.
    I still haven't got them in my hands, hopefully it will be in the next days.
    If someone is interested, pls email at gianluca.boscaino@tin.it.

    Hey, the ticket that I have on sale are the last on the list of the main page. The 2nd tier ticket is still available though because I had some trouble with one of the potential buyers.

    Please bump it up to the top or just write that the ticket is still available, because my earlier post was many days ago and probably most people will think that it would have been sold already.

    Thanks in advance,

    I have to say it's very frustrating to see that judging by the amount of tickets suddenly becoming available the week before the gig, many fans obviously overbought tickets on the day that they knew they didnt have definite takers for.

    Meanwhile many of us other fans have either overpaid for tickets, or bought tickets in areas we didnt really want due to lack of availability.

    Just a reminder: I have an extra ticket for London, £137 or 160,00 €. The seat is located in Second Tier 75 5.
    Unfortunately, to my great regret, I can’t go to the concert (I’m obliged to sell my ticket to someone luckier than me) but I can give the ticket to some friends of mine that will be there; they can manually give the ticket to you before the concert.

    Hi guys,

    I was SO looking forward to this. Sadly my Father has passed away and I need to go to Australia for the funeral.

    I have a Circle ticket, T, Row 2, seat 48... would far prefer to sell at face value to someone who will love the show as much as I would have.

    email me at andy(dot)slinger(at)brandvista(dot)net if you're interested (£78.50)

    I have the ticket, so can post next day delivery (ideally today).

    Thanks,

    Andy

    I've met up with Stuart yesterday and bought his ticket so I guess his offer can be taken down now. Really looking forward to the show, it'll be weird to see a Cure show without "One Hundred Years" and "Shake Dog Shake" but I'm not sure I've ever seen them do "The Drowning Man", "All Cats are grey", "The Funeral Party", "Seventeen Seconds" and quite a few others live. I think this will be my 11th Cure show since the first time all those years ago in 1984 and it certainly points back to the 80s. Wouldn't want to miss it.

    Thanks so much to Craig for putting out this blog and providing a forum for fans to buy/sell at face value, very much appreciated. I don't come here all the time but I love this place x
