  1. I (sadly) do not have a DVD burner in my PC. I do, however, have a standalone DVD burner as part of my home entertainment system. Would anybody be willing to start what I think would be called a "tree" for this ooncert? Send me a DVD of the show, and I could then send it on, etc.

  2. oh, didn't see this craig, thanks.

    big thanks to the person who uploaded it on youtube, even if they weren't allowed to share the source file.

  3. thanks for the higher quality mp3s:) just one question though.. what difference does it make if i download it from Megaupload or Rapidshare? or any other file sharing website for that matter? just the speed of the download, or are there other things involved? and which one is the best(?)/fastest?

  4. carlos - i think after multiple downloads rapidshare will tell you to wait between downloads, so providing a mirror to Megaupload or another site has an advantage.

    craig - you posted to the ZIP folder with ALL the videos. but if anyone wanted to download individual videos they can be found on my Sky Drive.

  8. thanks i lot andy! i have downloaded many things from so many places like those, that now every site makes me wait some time. even megaupload! anyway thanks for the info:)

    ReplyDelete
  9. Andy: What's on Dime? Audio or video?

    ReplyDelete
  10. video, its not the whole show though, apparently it skips after Inbetween Days and is missing the last few songs of the encore, but at the moment, it's the only file i could find. and it was mentioned in the Rome post by someone else.

    ReplyDelete
  11. oh, it doesn't skip, it ends in the middle of inbetween days. so it is missing Just Like Heaven and Boys Don't Cry. but at least it has all of 4:13 Dream.

    ReplyDelete
  12. wow, looking at the released dates, The Cure is going all out for Italy. First all the promo videos for the singles, then this Coca Cola show, and, now the album gets dropped on the 24th, the earliest than anywhere else?

    Darn, where's an Italian Cure fan as my friend when I need one?

    ReplyDelete
  13. Andy: It's not really a favor. They just release new cds on friday, instead of monday or tuesday.

    ReplyDelete
  14. thank you Oliver, these mp3s sound fab.

    craig - you had to go and delete the Lenoir show post did ya? After all the lovely comments i gave you in that post...

    ReplyDelete
  15. craig - yeah, but they could have given it to them on Halloween and it would have been fine. I see favoritism though.

    and they're totally screwing over Japan, Nov 5th? Are you serious?

    ReplyDelete
  16. yes, why was the Lenior Show post deleted?

    ReplyDelete
  17. carlos - it's because they didn't play any new Cure.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Because there's no news there. It will be posted again tomorrow, and deleted once again, if he doesn't play any songs.

    ReplyDelete
  19. ooooh right! (stupid me) anyway thanks:)



    is there a possibility that the official will be updated today or was robert just teasing us?

    ps. the higher quality audio is quite good:)

    ReplyDelete
  20. Today is almost over across the pond...

    ReplyDelete
  21. V: But everything seems to be based on Geffen/pacific time, these days. Remember, the site is run out of California, not England.

    ReplyDelete
  22. i wonder if Peter X still runs the MySpace and the official site. I remember talking to him a while back when I won the contest for Curiosa.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Which artwork are you guys using for this bootleg? are you using any? i was just putting up the bootleg together in itunes and everything and i realized that i have no artwork for this one!!

    ReplyDelete
  24. Off Topic:

    Suddenly the NME polls has changed:

    On Best Front Man RSxs is tied to Liam Gallager and on The Greatest band CURE HAS FALLEN TO 3RD PLACE ¡¡¡.

    I think Oasis fans are clicking like freaks.

    CURE Army soldiers needs go back to the battle camp right away...

    ;)

  25. There's an avi of SWID up on Pirate Bay: http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/4437340/The_Cure_-_Sleep_When_I_m_Dead_(Live_MTV_2008)

    ReplyDelete
  26. maree - that says it was uploaded on Oct 10th, when the show was on Oct 11th.

    so maybe it's the valencia show or the video from MTV Italy.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Thanks for the Dime heads up. I have it downloading NOW.

    Just finished watching the MP4s. Well, I have seen enough evidence now, including:

    Festival 2005 DVD
    La Route du la Rock concert video
    Vancouver May 08 gig
    4:13 Dream songs
    Rome Oct 08 gig

    To categorically say THANK god Porl is back! He has saved The Cure. Porl has reinstated The Cure as the greatest live act on the planet; AND his precense IMO makes Robert write better ... some kind of synergy is there, for sure. These next 2 CD's are going to really wake up the music press and bring in a lot of new fans IMO.

    Give me one Porl over the 2 other guys any day ... this current line-up is easily the best ever. It's a damn shame Robert did not do the '04 shakeup 5 years earlier ...

    ReplyDelete
  28. i kinda agree with rob here, i think this is one of the best lineups the cure has ever had! real good on stage, very tight and real good performances, and not to mention creativly they fucking rock! with these new songs they have prooved us that they can still KICK ASS. very good songs in my opninion and i think in many of you as well

    ReplyDelete
  29. Carlos:

    Yes, definitely TIGHT on stage! We are on the same page.

    I noticed that Robert is letting Porl go "wild wah-wah" more. It really adds a lot to the live performances of songs like 'Wrong Number" ... man that was a smoking version in Rome!

    Robert and Porl are an amazing guitar team, their playing is seemless on stage. Having 2 great guitarists on stage, and no keyboard, has really taken The Cure a higher/heavier level live performance IMO.

  30. Thanks Oliver for the mp3s & andy for the video! Much appreciated!!!

    The Cure Rocks at this show! I would have loved to have been there but I'm happy to be able to see the show on the net! :)

    ReplyDelete
  31. Thanks very much, Oliver for the 320 kpbs mp3s!

    Carlos, Rapidshare changes its rules a lot. Right now they're not demanding any wait period.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Thanks for making this stuff available to us! If anyone has a more accessible source for the video, please let us know - Dime is a no go for me!

    ReplyDelete
  33. sorry for the short skips in the video,but i am from germany and i can recive sky italy only via cardsharing.therefore the short skips.
    but the stream is untouched,thus original quality.
    if anyone from the italian people have recordet it,please upload the whole untouched stream without short skips.

    ReplyDelete
  34. moloch - i very much appreciate your effort and i downloaded your file. thank you.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Yes, indeed, thanks moloch for the incredible upload to Dime! Awesome on the big screen, great sound, even with the short skips, and missing 2 songs. Awesome show!!

    Now as requested, if anyone can upload the whole thing, with the same quality as Moloch's, but without the skips, and the extra songs.....would love to get my hands on it.

    As for 4:13 Dream, man, this CD is gonna find a permanent home in the player. Love it, all of it, even The Real Snow White, after several listens. MY favorites have to be The Hungry Ghost, The Reason's Why, Sirensong, The Scream, It's Over, Underneath,.....but the whole thing is fantastic. Can't wait for the studio version!!

    Mahalo

    ReplyDelete
  36. They should have played the 4:13 b-sides instead of a set of hits.

    ReplyDelete
  37. They should have played NEW DAY, A JAPANESE DREAM, THIS TWIGHT GARDEN, A FOOLISH ARRANGEMENT, THE EXPLODING BOY, IT USED TO BE ME, A PINK DREAM and A CHAIN OF FLOWERS!!

    And thats just for starters...

    ReplyDelete
  38. So what are the other 9 tracks that will appear on the dark dream album apart from these 7?

    A Boy I Never Knew

    Please Come Home

    Strum

    Spot Marks The X

    16

    Lusting Here In Your Mind

    Christmas Without You

    Anyone?

    ReplyDelete
  39. Another one is Smash Smash Butterfly. Not sure the other 8 though.

    ReplyDelete
  40. my guess..

    A Boy I Never Knew -> dark album

    Please Come Home -> dark album

    Strum -> waste basket

    Spot Marks The X -> renamed

    16 -> renamed

    Lusting Here In Your Mind -> renamed

    Christmas Without You

    ReplyDelete
  41. Sorry if I will upset some or most of the people here but I strongly believe that if Porl "saved The Cure" as a member here said, then with Boris they could reach an even higher level in the band´s history ever. Some songs in 4:13 are lacks the drumming magic of the past. I think Jason is a very good drummer they need to get Boris back. It would be wonderful to have him in the next album. It´s my opinion. Bye.

    ReplyDelete
  42. A Boy I Never Knew

    Please Come Home

    Strum

    WTF they have 33 new songs (13 in 4:13 dream) i dont want this old songs from another period on a new album (the dark album in this case)

    record them and make a single or something like that.. but put on this dark album just new songs..

    recycling is such an hypocritical way to make a new album

    ReplyDelete
  43. Am i the only one who think Robert seems to had a cold on the Rome show?
    you can espacially hear it when he tries to reach the higher notes..
    sounds great tho:) as always..

  45. On every song, at the start, you can hear electronic rythm running. I guess this is to be able to have these backing tapes playing in sync with the band, right ?
    (in THG, you definetly hear backing vocals in the chorus with the voice of Robert saying in a lower tone "the hungry ghost", and also during the chorus of TPB)

    Correct ?

    ReplyDelete
  46. seems all the links are disabled now, so i felt it necessary to remove my link just so that TMU wouldn't remove it.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Dang, I missed the boat. Are there any links of the audio still available anywhere?
