    I'm coFUSEd. Is this going to be on Fuse TV or Rave HD? If it's on Rave HD then like 10 people in the NY area will be able to watch it... Hopefully some wonderful soul will record it and share it with the rest of us!

    My Cox cable DVR goes only one week out so I will check on Friday or Saturday.

    As an ex-New Yorker I wish upon you a fantastic Cure show in NYC Cat. IT WILL HAPPEN! ;-)

    Elise and Sofia - LOL - I hear ya totally about this Cure obsession/COF fantasyland. It happens every four years, so I think we're safe! It BETTER happen again, anyway, cuz it's too much fun! I was like this in 04 as well, possibly even moreso than now. Like you, Sofia, boyfriend and Cure/COF are about all I can handle at this point...

    And boyfriend of course just rolls his eyes and makes snide remarks... it's pretty hilarious!

    Elise, it would be fun to meet up! We could have a Cure party in NOLA!

    I am dying to meet Craig. I just adore him!!

    cat, my boyfriend called robert smith "melty looking". and he LOVES the cure (he's so jealous). we've known eachother for 10 years and this is our first cure show TOGETHER. it's also our 3 year anniversary so these are big nights for us. :)

    new orleans is one of my very favorite cities on earth! so a cure meetup there would be so wild.

    cat, i am green with envy that you are seeing waits!!! g and i were going to see him in atlanta, but the cash involved with all these shows was getting crazy.

    i live in new york. g lives in canada. which is why we havent had many chances to see them together :)
    hopefully this visa bullshit goes smoothly for us so the cure obsessed star-crossed lovers can finally be together!

    i remember now that you are in nyc. sorry! i had looked at your profile before.

    i hope it works out with you and your bf too - what kind of visa obstacles is he facing??

    that would have been wild if you were in atlanta to see waits. we actually won't be here for it, which is why we are going to houston. we saw him in atlanta and nashville in 06, though -blew us the fuck away! only concert that is better than the cure.

I say we do Cafe Du Monde for breakfast, Port O' Call for burgers and monsoon's for lunch and Felix's for oysters!

    cat,
    we're just getting ready to apply for a k-1 so we're quite nervous about the whole affair! its like...ugh. just let him be here already. all this red tape bullshit! let people be together!!!

    the last time i saw waits in concert was the '99 mule variations tour. and i also saw him in studio when he did the daily show a couple years back (promoting orphans). i was 10 feet away from him and sobbing like a baby!
    that '99 tour was worth every last dime. he is just a god.

    fantac - ;). by the way, how're your students?

    today was my last day as a freshman! high school feels normal, i seriously thought it would be like how the movies and tv and music portrayed it to be. or maybe i still havent experienced the cool HS stuff yet. im scared how fast the years are going by though

    sofia, i remember now - we have had this convo about waits. i was not a fan in 99... i became a fan about 8 years ago, when my bf introduced me to him. actually my bf intro me to his music in 98, but i didn't really get into him until a couple of years later. and yes waits is a GODDDDDDDDDDDDDDD. he is the only cat cooler than RSX, IMO. that is so great you saw him perform at the daily show!

    for the orphans tour, he did a fucking OUTSANDING MESMERIZING HEARTBREAKING rendition of Day After Tomorrow, from Real Gone. Brought me to tears both times!

    Yeah Jerry - Definitely ironic but I also find it funny! Is it me or Lol came to be a bit of a taboo subject!? I mentioned this some time ago that I finished reading The Story of The Cure (which includes a lot of quotes from Lol) and I can't help but admire the guy for being able to overcome his alcoholism. Yet no one really talks about him anymore. I find this weird.

    ReplyDelete
  64. christinaPJune 12, 2008 at 10:26 PM

    sofia - i thought the same thing. especially for printed e-tickets. i called ticketmaster and you can read them your ticket# and they will tell you if they are still valid. as for there being a copy floating around somewhere - whoever gets the ticket scanned in first gets in. so if you are worried - get there very early. plus- stub hub is the only broker that has the money back guarantee (that ive seen anyway). so that is why i went with them. they are a tad bit more expensive than the others - but the guarantee was worth it to me.

    ReplyDelete
  65. Jerry DJune 12, 2008 at 10:29 PM

    It is weird Fantac but I think that all the negative things said about Lol over the years (esp. from Kiss Me on) has diminished his role in the bands history. Known as the drunk, inferior drummer, inferior keyboardist and the final slap was Disintegration when he was credited with "other instruments' whatever that means... Lol is the Cure's red headed stepchild for sure.

    Jerry - Yeah I know and it just feels wrong... I guess that's why no one really talks about it. I answered my question when I asked it... It just brings too many bad memories and aspects I guess. It ended to sourly. But apparently, him and Robert are friendly again so I guess that is really all that matters. And like I said, the man's been clean for over 16 years now! I say bravo.

    We seriously have to get the screening process implemented!!! Front row seast should be allocated based on the amount of time you have spent on CoF.

    Also, CoF Kittens receive automatic allocation.

    Air Train: The Air Train offers connecting service to NJ Transit and Amtrak trains which will bring you into Manhattan. Surprisingly, this can actually be much quicker than taking a cab or bus, and it is much more affordable. $11.55 one way will bring you from Newark Airport to Penn Station (which is the same building as MSG!!!). AirTrain connects the NJ Transit "Newark Airport Station" to the airport terminals. Consult the schedule to determine the schedule of connecting trains. Service is available from 5 a.m. until 2 a.m.

    Taxis: Metered fare (plus tolls) to any Manhattan location, approximately $40-55. Taxis are available outside of every terminal and there is typically a taxi stand where you will be directed to a taxi. There is an additional charge for luggage over 24 inches if the driver handles the bags, and rates are based per car, not per passenger (up to four passengers).

    59 is way cheap. i wish i could do that but i would rather walk right across the street after the show. hopefully christina will stay with me and i told her to just pay me whatever.

    sofia, it would be better to meet up closeby, doncha think??
