11:29 pm - @YeruV: The amount of people who fainted is too damn high!
(This report was sent during Wrong Number. The awfulness of it is now making people faint! End this torture, Robert! :) )

9:29 pm - @YeruV: I have a pen. A guy handed me paper. I'm noting down the main setlist and saving battery for the encores, as suggested. See you!

9:02 pm - @YeruV: If I stop tweeting, it's because the signal has been cut. They do that as a safety measure in every concert :( Some counter-terrorism, anti-kidnap crapolla. But I'm keeping record of the setlist, even if I can't send a live report. Now, the endless wait. This is my view:

8:48 pm - @YeruV: Deliverans are saying goodbye with an amazing bass line. Last song and then we wait for The Cure.

8:40 pm - @YeruV: The crowd are very happy to see Deliverans there. Things start to warm up. "Deliverans! Deliverans!," roars the crowd. And they're frikin good!

8:34 pm - @BritNoise: Deliverans in this wonderful night of The Cure in Paraguay.

8:20 pm - @YeruV: Deliverans now on stage!

7:53 pm - @YeruV: First supporting band Tribu Sónica already on stage.

7:16 pm - @Urbana_FM: Visiting the stand of Urbana, the winners of the Cure Meet & Greet.

7 pm - Photos of fans waiting for The Cure at the Jockey Club.

6:30 pm - @Tigo_Paraguay: The Jockey Club gates opened! Many fans of The Cure who were waiting early and enter.

4:53 pm - @Tigo_Paraguay: The concert will be taped today for upcoming DVD of The Cure. Expected to have 15 cameras.  

4:44 pm - Judge Fudge: "Pretty exciting: There are Cureheads everywhere; the Cure is all over on posters and all over the radio. Was behind a group from Argentina who seemed to have come all the way from BA just to see the Cure."

3:55 pm - @Urbana_FM: Until 10 pm we do the #PreviaTheCure from the Jockey Club. pic.twitter.com/PupkW3kR8n
So with The Cure starting at 9:30, maybe they'll air the first 30 minutes?

2:15 pm - @sargusperez: Desde el Jockey 

1:39 pm - Moisés: From now on Radio Urbana 106.9 live from the Jockey Club del Paraguay. They said they were soundchecking but not by the band members. Checking sound and lights...

Night 3 of the LatAm 2013 tour, and we say goodbye to Brasil, and hello to Paraguay. Which set of encores will we get tonight? Who will be the lucky recipient of Roger's magical tambourine (which is said to be autographed by the entire band)? And will they send us a photo of it? Please?

Tonight's schedule: Tribu Sónica at 7:30 pm, Deliverans at 8:30 pm, and The Cure at 9:30 pm. Check the local time in Asunción here or with the clock over there on the right.

Not sure about live reports tonight. No solid commitments as of yet, so it might be a last minute thing. If at all possible, I'll have them for you. If anyone who's going to the show would like to help us, especially with the song by song live setlist reports, please contact me. Post in the comments, email me at craigatcof(at)gmail(dot)com, or on Twitter @CraigatCoF, or use WhatsApp (email me and we can set it up). Thank you so much, and enjoy the show!

      There will be a tambourine thrown each night. Autographed by the band. Or so Roger says. You can never be sure if he's serious or just pulling your leg. :)

    2. ZApril 9, 2013 at 1:43 PM

      i can confirm he threw one in SP and that he made a veeery funny face when he saw the mess he made.

      I can confirm that Roger threw a tambourine to the audience in the Rio de Janeiro show too, just after the band played Boys Don't Cry.

    Air parts of the concert at 930? Are you crazy? You actually may have a non single sneak in there! Are you sure you don't want to wait till 11:30 and air close to me, lgtb, and wciby? There must be a mistake with that time.

    I will NEVER get tired of hearing Tape/Open. So jealous of everyone at these shows. I can still remember hearing Tape for the first time live back in Sydney in 07...perfect. Love these guys for broadcasting this.

    Robert seems to be saving his voice a lot tonight. I wonder if it is getting wasted too soon (after 6 songs? doubt so) or if he is really saving it intentionally... in São Paulo it was perfect start to finish. And after that too...

    Damn, lucky guys. But on the brighter side, if they had played Cold in SP I'd be still there as a puddle of tears. I had the chance to hear Strange Day in 96, though (in place of Charlotte Sometimes in Rio).
