    If you look closely, you'll notice that Simon is holding the top secret Cure plans behind his back.

    It's true, he really doesn't age

    It's pretty amazing, isn't it? He's either signed a deal with the devil, or really takes great care of himself. Must be the cycling.

    Now I want to know what he's hiding, Poor guy, he can't even go into a Staples without being harassed

    He wasn't being harassed. David knows him.

    Wait.....it's Friday and we haven't heard anything yet................

  12. CraigApril 22, 2011 at 3:51 PM

    I never said anything was happening on Friday. That was just an assumption that people made, based on a joke between me and Perfect.Murder, about Rebecca Black and her song Friday.

    Nope. Go back and read it. The only time I ever mentioned Friday was in a joking response to P.M saying he wanted the RS/Rebecca collaboration to be true. I said I couldn't reveal that until "Friday, Friday".

    Here you go:

    perfect.murder said...I really hope you're going to tell us that the Rebecca Black collaboration is indeed true!!

    Craig said...Oh how I wish I could! But I can't. Not yet. Not until...friday, friday. : )

    Haha Simon dressed up as Beano's Denis the Menace shopping for stationary in WHSmiths

    Simon sightings are the best, my flatmates girlfriend once served him when she worked in a Fish and Chip shop. Guy gets about.

    ahah, dear Craig, I believe 99% of the fans (including myself) thought you were about to announce any major cure thing! (new album, tour, whatever).

    we hate you! :(

    No, we don't :) But don't do that ever again!

    fabien,
    i'm pretty sure when he has the okay he'll post the news. it's really not up to him?
    but it's VERY nice to know that something good is around the corner.

    so thank you, craig.

    Thanks!!!

    personally i got no impression you were gonna make an announcement this friday. you were clearly talking about the rebecca black song... guess i'm the only one who got that?

  25. Eli (carnage visors)April 22, 2011 at 9:52 PM

    It is so funny, how people cause a little joke to snowball out of control, but then again my wife called me up at work to say "Monday?". No it cant be, I just hope they stick with the "every 4 years" formula, it is a whole bunch easier to plan these Cure pilgrimages out $$.

  26. altr2eliseApril 22, 2011 at 10:53 PM

    @Lindsey - I saw it as a joke, too.
    *sigh* as Cure fans, the news is often sparse, so many try to make a cake from a crumb at any chance.

    I love my cure-y peeps for that. They make me smile.

    Oh, damn, Craig. I didn't get the "in" joke. So, is anything concrete happening soon or was it just a general attempt to cheer us all up?

    "Caprica" sucked because Ron Moore stopped writing after the pilot and handed the reins to sucky Jane Espenson and then Kevin "Desperate Housewives" Murphy, but "Blood and Chrome" by one of BSG's best writers, Michael Taylor, should be awesome! Also, Ron Moore has written a pilot for a show "17th Precinct", which has been directed by Michael Rymer (who directed tons of BSG beautifully) and stars Jaime Bamber (Lee), my man James Callis (Baltar), and Tricia Helfer (Number 6). Can't fraking wait!

    I think craig is saying there is definitely some HUGE news due (and he already knows it), but it won't necessarily be a specific day...we will know the truth very soon...i guess!.

  29. CraigApril 23, 2011 at 3:23 AM

    And feels it would be very unfair to the band if he says anything about anything, until the band are ready to say something first.

    So, yes, good news coming, just don't know when.

    And thank you for understanding, SL, Sofia, Lindsey, and Jo.

    2 Graig!

    No trouble Graig!

    PS>I know that u know & i understand that u can't divulge something for the moment...my only wish + others of course > i hope that something new will come from the studio because we need some new (or old?) sounds from there?

    Peace

    Of course I was joking when I wrote my :( point!
    I'm sure you got it this way, didn't you?
    No harm done I hope!

    Is he in Smiths? What were you buying Simon? A sharpener or maybe a ring binder? I guess it's something we'll never know...

    Yeah he's in WH Smiths

    Now it can be revealed...Simon was obviously hiding a map of Australia and some Tim Tams behind his back. : )
