  23. Pussycat: Yes, I think that was his name. Said they would air it this morning and throughout the weekend.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I know it wasn't Madison, so it had to be Larry The Duck.

    ReplyDelete
  25. I've been trying to send them a song request but they haven't played any of them yet. :(

    ReplyDelete
  26. Must have been him.....

    ReplyDelete
  27. They'll play your song but it will probably be a few hours from now.

  30. 3:07 pm (central) - The Caterpillar.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Before the Caterpillar, Robert spoke a little about it being a "funny little song" and how the drummer Andy actually drummed on his leg to make the sounds as the song starts.

    ReplyDelete
  32. The intros have been about an hour apart right ?

    ReplyDelete
  33. Thanks Heron. I missed that part.

    ReplyDelete
  34. The intros are about an hour apart.

    @astrangeday82: I'm not sure if they will play the songs you requested. I haven't heard them play anything prior to 1989 in the past.

    Smooches,
    Pussycat

    ReplyDelete
  35. This is fun, kind of like a 4-day long live show chat! :D

    ReplyDelete
  36. stupid sirious website! it wont let me log in! and i already have the trial version! agh i would hate to miss the interview, i really really hope someone will record it and upload it somewhere pleaase!

    ReplyDelete
  37. How can I listen to the concert?!!?

    It logs me out every 90 mins or so if I don't do something!

    ReplyDelete
  38. I love it when DJs have perfect timing. ;)

    ReplyDelete
  39. Just click to keep listening when it asks if you are still listening.

    ReplyDelete
  40. V: Think the universe is trying to tell us something? : )

    ReplyDelete
  41. Craig: Um, yeah, I think so. :D

    ReplyDelete
  42. Does a window pop up?
    I haven't seen one yet?

    ReplyDelete
  43. Yes, you will hear a little bloop, and a window appears asking if you are still listening. At least that's what it does for me, using Firefox.

    ReplyDelete
  44. Here comes the train... ;)

    ReplyDelete
  45. 4:05 pm (central) - Jumping Someone Else's Train. No intro.

    ReplyDelete
  46. 3:06 (Mountain) JSET (YAY!) no introduction

    ReplyDelete
  47. I haven't heard any bloop all day?

    ReplyDelete
  48. Carlos,
    You can use a service like Gmail or Hotmail to generate another email address that you could use to sign up for the free trial under, if you're having problems logging into your first trial account.

    ReplyDelete
  49. @astrangeday82: i use firefox as my browser. it comes with a plugin for sirius. with the plugin you get continuous play...no interruptions.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Richard has apparently never heard of bootlegs. : P

    ReplyDelete
  51. Craig: I was thinking the same thing. ;)

    ReplyDelete
  52. Enjoy your 'listening party' guys. Wish I was able to ... hope *someone's* recording this thing! >_<

    ReplyDelete
  53. Don't worry, Helsa. Someone will get it. If not, they are repeating it all weekend.

    ReplyDelete
  54. LOL Craig I thought that exact thing!

    "um, Richard, I don't know how to break this to you, but there's this thing called Bit Torrent. You may want to check it out..."

    ReplyDelete
  55. I use firefox. :) Let me see...I'll try and figure this out....

    ReplyDelete
  56. So...what should I do other than clicking the button ?
    I clicked this plug-in thing on the top of the page and it said that it didn't find anything ???

    ReplyDelete
  57. Firefox Sirius plugin

    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3546

    ReplyDelete
  58. Yeah, I know it's going to repeat, Craig. I read what you put on the front page, unlike SOME people. lol.

    Oh I do love hearing Robert's voice... maybe that's why I hear it so often in my dreams... aaah, sweet, sweet, psychosis.

    ReplyDelete
  59. I installed it now what?

    Will it just not log me out anymore ?

    Thanks for all the help.

    ReplyDelete
  60. No, you'll still have to login (select sirius, channel, login) but it will give you continuous play instead cutting off after 90 minutes.

    ReplyDelete
  61. i am going to record the concert but as for the tidbits, well i can't do them all.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Don't worry Andy, I am recording everything. I am actually in the middle of splitting the first 7 hours that I recorded now.

    Kind of funny that Sirius played U2 and Morrissey before The Cure. Robert hates both of them!

    ReplyDelete
  63. Good thing RS doesn't program the channel. He has awful taste in music. : P

    ReplyDelete
  64. I hate them both too! :P

    So no more logging me out after 90 mins I hope!

    Thanks for all the help!

    ReplyDelete
  65. so i am on the right channel? They played Hairdresser on Fire a few min ago then Psychedelic Furs?

    ReplyDelete
  66. I'm getting excited!!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  67. Sorry...I feel sad for you...

    I hope I don't get logged out!

    ReplyDelete
  68. I need headphones too! But I don't want to get up and got o my room to get them.... hehehe :P

    I had them while listening to the coachella webcast
    one.. because my parents and sister were sleeping
    and...
    second...because it sounds awesome!!!

    Cure forever!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  69. I confess, I was hoping to get an introduction to the concert from Robert *sigh*

    ReplyDelete
  70. missing the old days.

    at least the mix is good, this must sound amazing through radio.

    ReplyDelete
  71. Heron: Yeah, me too. That was kind of an abrupt beginning of the show!

    ReplyDelete
  72. I hope I don't get logged out.:( I'll cry....(even though I already am...)

    ReplyDelete
  73. Yah V - a little strange to go from "mental hopscotch" straight into the waves. Oh well!

    ReplyDelete
  74. Oh how I miss the days of not knowing the lyrics to this song, and doing revision after revision to my attempts to decipher them. That was so much fun. : )

    ReplyDelete
  75. Craig: I still wish he said "aligned". :)

    ReplyDelete
  76. I know! They should have at least given us longer waves. : )

    ReplyDelete
  77. He should have said...
    Enjoy the show!

    That would have been awesome!!!

    ReplyDelete
  78. V: Yeah, but you still wish he said Kung Pow and Pony. : P

    ReplyDelete
  79. Craig: Oh believe me, he says "kung pao". :P

    ReplyDelete
  80. V: Sorry, Kung Pao. : P

    I still say Pony. : )

    ReplyDelete
  81. If I get logged out I'm gonna make SIRIUS radio buy me a ticket to my next Cure concert!!!! :P hehehehe

    ReplyDelete
  82. raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaain!

    ReplyDelete
  83. Sorry...

    Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaain!!

    ReplyDelete
  84. Craig: I say Pony too. :)

    ReplyDelete
  85. This is making me sad....I NEED to see them live again!!! Its been over a year!!! :( :( :( :(

    ReplyDelete
  86. My one year anniversary of seeing them last was yesterday. Sigh. :)

    ReplyDelete
  87. Everthing is going swell on my end. Recording will be up later.

    ReplyDelete
  88. Thank you thank you !!!
    You get a big CURE HUG!!!

    ReplyDelete
  89. I saw them on May 12th 2008....
    :( I need my cure!

    ReplyDelete
  90. Aww, I'm reading the chat we had during this show. :) Sigh. :)

    ReplyDelete
  91. Aww...its so sad...
    :( :( :(

    ReplyDelete
  92. V: But our chats are so much better now then they were back then. : )

    ReplyDelete
  93. Amy just sent this in: "Cure broadcast in audio is also on Sirius channel 839 on tv for directv."

    ReplyDelete
  94. Isn't Sleep When I'm Dead next ? I was looking at the set list and thats what it said ??

    ReplyDelete
  95. Craig: True... ;)

    Though I never hear you explaining what PHTs are anymore! ;)

    ReplyDelete
  96. V and her one track mind! : P

    Penis Hugging Tights! Happy. my dear?

    ReplyDelete
  97. Craig: Of course. :D Thank you. ;)

    By the way, it appears that the show chat for this show was where I first requested you explain the PHTs. So now we have come full circle.

    ReplyDelete
  98. Yeah, they skipped Sleep. Hmm, what's up with that?

    ReplyDelete
  99. Aww!!! No!!! I hope they find out and play SWID when they replay this tomorrow!!

    ReplyDelete
  100. I doubt it's a Sirius error. The Cure provided this show to them, and probably cut it themselves. Unless it was too long and Sirius had to make some cuts.

    ReplyDelete
  101. When FTEOTDGS comes on I'm gonna cry....

    ReplyDelete
  102. Maybe?...
    I wonder if they'll say anything about it ?

    ReplyDelete
  103. Is having for dinner tonight.....

    ReplyDelete
  104. Now I have to time my drive home. I'm thinking I'll leave right after FTEOTDGS and then I'll only miss 3-4 songs! The bonus part is, I have the concert on my player and so I can keep up on the way home! :D YAY!

    ReplyDelete
  105. Sorry!!
    I meant...
    ....having me for dinner tonight....

    ReplyDelete
  106. Heron: I see you've planned this out very well. Good for you! : )

    ReplyDelete
  107. How do you already have the concert??

    ReplyDelete
  108. Craig I put it on there last year and never took it off, so it was not so much great planning as happy coincidence. :D Queueing up The Perfect Boy now...

    ReplyDelete
  109. If I get logged out half way though I'll just pick up from where I left tomorrow. ;)

    PUT HANDS IN THE SKY!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  110. sucks about SWID. I have officially been kicked out of my living room where I was recording the concert. I told them they can turn off the tv just not the recording and they're more than welcome to put a DVD on but we are not changing the satellite channel.

    Recording is still on and I'm listening to the show on my PC now via the Sirius add-on for FF.

    ReplyDelete
  111. Why am I missing so many words!!!
    I guess I'm just excited!! hehehe

    PUT YOUR HANDS IN THE SKY!

    ReplyDelete
  112. hehehe..
    But its cure time!!
    :D

    ReplyDelete
  113. Getting ready to log out and dash to the car - see you soon my lovely cure peeps!

    *hands in the sky*

    ReplyDelete
  114. By! Cure hugs!!

    Run out with you hands in the sky. ;) People will be freaked out. :P

    ReplyDelete
  115. Bye Heron! Have a safe trip and no traffic! : )

    ReplyDelete
  116. Bye.. :P
    I'm am so messed up right now. :P

    ReplyDelete
  117. Thanks for the information!
    Kisses

    ReplyDelete
  118. If what I installed didn't work, I think I'll be logged out around A Letter To Elise. :(
    I'll stop recording but I'll still listen. ;)
    Then...tomorrow I'll record from then on!
    But I really hoping it worked.

    ReplyDelete
  119. Yay, Craig's favorite! :)

    ReplyDelete
  120. Or maybe Never Enough? Not sure...

    OH I LOVE OH I LOVE WHAT YOU DO TO ME!!

    ReplyDelete
  121. Ugh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Worst song ever! : P

    ReplyDelete
  122. I DON'T THINK SO!

    ReplyDelete
  123. V is going to get a spanking. : P

    ReplyDelete
  124. Craig: I love what you do to me! ;)

    ReplyDelete
  125. Oh, here's Sleep now. Weird.

    ReplyDelete
  126. They had to do a last minute edit to change the "Pony" to "Bunny". :P

    ReplyDelete
  127. I don't get it?!
    This is strange...

    ReplyDelete
  128. GO GO GO! NO NO NO! PUSH IT AWAY!

    ReplyDelete
  129. Sorry...I'm way to EXCITED!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  130. V: I think you've solved yet another Cure mystery! : )

    ReplyDelete
  131. 2nd worst song ever! : P
    Bring on the dark stuff! : )

    ReplyDelete
  132. Craig: As always, Detective V is on the case. ;)

    ReplyDelete
  133. I have to go get some food...BRB

    ReplyDelete
  134. Always take a big bite, it's such a gorgeous sight to see you eat in the middle of the night! :)

    ReplyDelete
  135. Hah, that was not intended to be a reply, I was only singing! ;)

    ReplyDelete
  136. LOL!
    Ok! I'll take a BIG BITE! :P

    ReplyDelete
  137. oh ok..then I'll take a little bite..

    ReplyDelete
  138. Only to more songs...then I MIGHT get logged out...

    ReplyDelete
  139. Yay! Letter To Elise! Too bad she's sleeping right now. : )

    ReplyDelete
  140. Aww, ALTE. Where's Jo? :(

    ReplyDelete
  141. V: I would guess she's sleeping. Still early over there and a Saturday. Should I try to wake her with the Dream 13 machine? I promise not to use THAT setting! : P

    ReplyDelete
  142. Craig: I was going to suggest it, but as long as yes, you watch what kind of dreams you send her. ;)

    ReplyDelete
  143. V: Well, I could use that setting, but use Robert with it. I think she'd love a dream like that. : )

    Jo is going to kill us when she reads this. : P

    ReplyDelete
  144. What are you guys talking about ?

    ReplyDelete
  145. Great version of never enough! Is this one of the concerts Rob had a dodgy voice? If it is, they've covered it very well.

    ReplyDelete
  146. Craig: Oooh, yeah, you should do that! ;) I'm sure she'd thank you, not kill you. ;)

    ReplyDelete
  147. Beau: According to the reports that came in the night of the show, his voice was strong and well that night. :)

    ReplyDelete
  148. Ugh, NE and WN. The twins of evil!
    : P

    Two of V's favorites. : P

    ReplyDelete
  149. AWW!!!
    "are you still listening ?"
    YES!!!! I AM!!!!!!

    Now I have big beep in WN!!!!!!!!!!
    GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

    ReplyDelete
  150. Hi, just joining the chat fow a few minutes before classes take place.


    Arghh, i want to hear the show too.

    LOL, last weekend i sang by cellphone to a girl ALTE & POY and all she said was, THANKS...


    I knew that i never have to do that.

    *sighs*


    Maybe nowadays girls doesn´t like anymore that boys sing to them.

    LOL

    :|

    ReplyDelete
  151. Yes, he was still suffering with his voice, but he was doing better at this show.

    ReplyDelete
  152. Mad Bob: Did I read correctly that there was an earthquake near you today?

    ReplyDelete
  153. ^
    |
    |
    wrong number is not his favorite.

    ReplyDelete
  154. Mad Bob: Yes, how are things in Mexico City? I heard about the quake?

    And girls are crazy! Why do we bother with them at all? : )

    ReplyDelete
  155. Craig: Figures you'd say that! :P

    ReplyDelete
  156. V: I would know, wouldn't I? : P

    ReplyDelete
  157. this is really exciting and can't wait to upload the files for you guys.

    ReplyDelete
  158. Craig: Yeah, you have seen the craziest of the crazies. :P

    ReplyDelete
  159. Cheers :) thought he seemed maybe a little rough but not too bad. Great performance. Saying that, 100 years sounds a bit odd though, a bit tired?

    ReplyDelete
  160. I retract my previous statement about RS's voice and defer to Craig's response. :)

    ReplyDelete
  161. Oh yes, about 2.24 pm.

    Now is 6.45 pm.

    5.9 Richter degrees, but for Mexico City this degree is low, things starts to get worse if is a 6.8 or higher.

    ( Obvioulsly noboby wants such thing like that )



    I was standing and i thought i was dizzy but suddenly i felt a big shaking and a pull.

    Thank God nothing happened, everything´s calm now, but after the terrible 1985 experience most of people went mad when an earthquake is passing.



    Thanks for asking.

    ReplyDelete
  162. ah! crazy strobe lights flashing now!

    ReplyDelete
  163. Mad Bob: I'm glad to hear that it wasn't too bad and that you are okay.

    ReplyDelete
  164. when this concert was played, this song was BABY RAG DOG BOOK.

    ReplyDelete
  165. We are glad you are okay, Mad Bob! Good luck in class!

    ReplyDelete
  166. WHAT A BASSLINE TO IT'S OVER. Powerhouse.

    ReplyDelete
  167. Craig: Would this be considered a manly song?

    ReplyDelete
  168. Robert had no idea what the words were at this point. : P

    ReplyDelete
  169. Thanks V & Craig.

    My family and me are ok.

    Now it´s rainig hard...which reminds me of... i don´t know...oh yes, listening for 20th time on a day TSDWAY, right before my class.

    Perfect...

    :)

    ReplyDelete
  170. V: Don't know. I'll ask Simon for you. : )

    ReplyDelete
  171. LOL
    I want the lyrics! :P
