Radio City pre-show meet up


Kate, Julian and Chris listening to soundcheck.
(I love this photo!)

"Last night, I got elected to determine a place for a pre RCMH meet up. I told everyone I would post under the comments for the TGIF meet, but if you could post on this, it would help.

PRE RCMH Meet
Heartland Brewery
1285 Avenue of the Americas (Sixth Ave for locals)
One block from RCMH
I’ll be there at 5:30. Hope to see all my new friends for another great meet up!"

(Thanks Michael)

  1. That's where we usually get a drink before a RCMH show anyway. Last nite after we ate at TGIF's and we noticed the crowd around the bar thinned out (it was great to meet y'all and esp Seth, Stacy and the beauteous girls, the Tall guy with the girl from Finland (originally, she's in the pic Craig posted) et al) we went to Stouts and they were having a Curefest there too, the widescreens had the Trilogy vid playing. The weirdest thing, the bartender put tequila in my supposed rum and coke, that tast is still in my mouth, yech! I didnt drink the rest of the night, lol. Anyway will see everyone again tonite-Toni

  5. Hey!

    It was good to meet you all as well, toni :)

    I ended up running back to the hotel to get the video camera, so missed Stouts - too bad! I did get almost all of "Underneath the Stars" and will post that when I get back into town.

    We'll see you all tonight at Heartland Brewery!

    -The tall guy and the girl from Finland ;)

  7. hey guys...i have an extra ticket for tonight...5th row. i'll try to be at the brewery at the arranged time.

    no freaks/stalkers please! :)

    just want to make sure a real cure fan will enjoy these seats with me.

    i paid $350 each from stub hub for these seats so we can talk about cost at the brewery i guess. i am pretty open. i dont plan on making back all the money here.

  10. PS, i'm only asking face value for this seat, which is 109 dollars:

    ADULT Tickets
    Total Convenience Charge(s) US $95.00 x 1
    US $11.30 x 1
    Order Processing Charge US $3.15
    TOTAL CHARGES US $109.45


    It's in row LL of orchestra six,
    orchestra 6 starts at row BB, and there is no row II, so row LL is the 10th row.

    I'm leaving in about 2 hours so give me a shout if you want this one.

  18. ChristinaP - I'm BobsGirl from BoS. Can you buy me a black tank? I didn't buy anything in Atlanta and now I'm totally regretting it. Please? I'm good for the money and shipping.

    I want your 5th row Simon side ticket but I'm stuck here in CA boiling!

    Have fun tonight!

  19. ChristinaP-- My finger hovered above that very ticket 3 or 4 times, yesterday, but airfare from DFW was over $700, so I just couldn't press "Buy Tickets". If the seat is empty, I will occupy it in spirit. Enjoy, you lucky B!

  21. I saw Agnes Deyne, the model, it seemed to be her standing up front of stage in the orchestra pit all night. I had tix in the 3rd mess, had binocs from from the back it looked like her. After just reading the last posts for thos great seats, I would have took either of them in a heartbeat. I'm kicking myself , hard. I did get a deal from Macy's the binoculors were 19.99 plus tax, not bad at all. Of course I was so freakin knocked out by Robert climbing the boxed seats (they were curtained off on all levels) he climbed them and swirled in the curtains and was so ON, I will never forget it. I never had tix this sucky for RCMH, so after about 30 years of going to shows I get stuck up top. Still, it was sublime, and yeah I stared at Porl all night and was thinking bad thoughts. It was perfect. The Cure are the greatest band of all time, RS's voice is stronger than ever, beer must be his secret.

  22. I forgot to say I first saw Agnes Deyne hanging in the lobby with a very cute guy, it was later when I think I saw her in the pit. How about that pit anyway? Hardly any of them stood up for a long time, no chairdancing either. They were right down in the middle directly in front and were seemingly base.

  23. The pit was sad.

    I think i was one of only 2 people who stood for the whole show...
