I will be in Athens one :D

Tell members in cure forum to stay near acropolis museum close to syggrou/fix metro staion or acropolis station. Not close to event :wink:
The area near to concert is not so good to stay when visit Athens at the moment.

Mr Gallup grooving to a tune that nobody else can quite hear is forever an endearing feature of a Cure show.

It is good though.

Btw does anyone have a good digi rip of the Show VHS? Please PM a link if so. Ta x

It was so disappointing to miss out on tix to this - the live stream made up for it (at least a bit) and we made quite an event of it at ours.
It was a very emotional evening actually.... 30 years. The same friends that I listened the album with me for the first time, joined me this time... yes, quite emotional. :)

Simon Gallup needs to check that picture in his attic. His ability to never age seems to have hit a minor bump. Just a tiny one, but.

:lol:

He still manages to maraud around the stage for the entire show without showing any signs of fatigue though

Let's not forget that Show was released on the failed Philips CD-i digital video format in glorious 368x224!

The MPEG data is surprisingly easy to extract... :innocent:

Just watching the Southside show from last night's stream & my word, I don't think I have even heard them sound so good as they are now

CD-i is a funny format because it doesn't conform to the Redbook standard. However most drives will recognise a disc is present, but can't do anything with it. What you need to do is create an image of the disc and extract the stuff you want once it's on your computer. ISOBuster can do this, it also has an MPEG extract function for dealing with CD-i video and the more common VCD format :)

Does he ever! I want- no, need, whatever he uses to keep his knees that lithe!
He's a marvel.

The Werchter show last night was immense! Excellent setlist, but what I loved the most was the chemistry between them. Robert in a very good & playful mood, it was a joy to see :notworthy: :notworthy:

Reeves has been a godsend.
He doesn't take over & just fills the space he's there to fill.

Indeed ;D
Been watching him closely during the show and he really adds to the experience without overdoing it. He seems to enjoy it very much, just like Roger :notworthy:

Bring on Glasto on the telly tonight :D
