Cure in Rock Band 3, too

Update: Some footage of 'Just Like Heaven' in this trailer.

Last week we found out that 'Fascination Street' will be in Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock, and now word comes that 'Just Like Heaven' will be included in Rock Band 3. This will also be the first game to include keyboard parts, so here's your chance to be a virtual Roger or Lol. : ) Check out the demo video here.

Shawn playing some Cure on WBNY tonight

"In celebration of the release of the deluxe remaster of The Cure's 'Disintegration', I'll be playing a few songs featured on there and the online disc 'Alternative Rarities 1988-1989' during my show tonight on 91.3 WBNY in Buffalo, NY, which normally runs from 11pm-1am ET on Friday nights, but will go an extra hour tonight to accommodate those tracks. I'll be playing one each hour, in addition to other good music which you may enjoy, so listen in if you can either on the radio, or online. I'll be recording the show and posting it online shortly thereafter, so if you can't hear it live, you can listen later. I hope that you enjoy the show!"
(Thanks Shawn)

Posters at Newbury Comics

"FYI for folks in New England, some of the Newbury Comics locations do indeed have the posters. E.G. the Natick location still has about 10 or 12 posters left and they are rolled, not folded. In fact when I got mine there they gave me 2 extra posters because a couple previous purchasers didn't want them. If anybody wants them I'm happy to mail them for the price of the postage."
(Thanks Justin)

Update: "Stopped by the Nashua, NH location today. Out of CDs (was told that they're getting another shipment within the next few days), but they gave me a poster. Didn't see how many were left, but they're there." (Thanks Jocelyn)

Prayer Tour L.A. interview and live clips

Disintegration poster with Amazon orders?

Just checking out the Rhino Facebook page, and noticed a new banner ad that links to Amazon, and says "free poster with purchase". So are Amazon orders going to include the poster, too? Or maybe only if you order from that link?
Update from Rhino: No, there isn't a poster offer from Amazon. It was a mistake, and they have now removed the "free poster" text from that ad.

Disintegration special on French radio?

"Years Go Bye on APinkDream says that there will indeed be a special Disintegration program on France Inter show by Bernard Lenoir on 2nd or 3rd June."

Update: "The program was supposed to happen Wednesday 2nd. But Hugo Cassevetti (the guest, a well-known music reporter) was on holiday! :) So it will take place next Wednesday, 9th at 22:00."
(Thanks Fabien G)

Update2: Here's what they played - Out of Mind, Pirate Ships, Plainsong (live), Lullaby (live). (Thanks Smif)
