BORING!!!!

I am getting so bored of seeing the same bloody playlist, its nice that they've thrown in How Beautiful You Are but please - its all so predictable now, and for a band with the back catalogue that they have its all very sad.

...I know they don't have a keyboardist now but they've seemed to manage ok with Lullaby and Plainsong which I think sound great with the guitar taking the place of the synths so why can't we hear something amazing like The Same Deep Water As You, or All Cats Are Grey, or how about Cold?? Even tracks that didnt even have any prominent synths used like The Hanging Garden, Siamese Twins and Short Term Effect we never ever hear!!! If its really a problem use a backing tape/track - they've done it in the past so why not for those tracks - I think any big Cure fan who has gone to see them play live would agree these tracks I've mentioned are some of their greatest songs - not stuff like Us or Them, Wrong Number and Never Enough!!! Whats up with that!?

But that playlist is so dull and riddled with live-Cure predictability now - wheres The Figurehead, A Strange Day, Primary - the songs that sound amazing live!! Grrrrrrrrrrrr!!!

re: cof
hahahahahaha!
don't worry - he'll post the same info and backdate it, so as to look like he did it first!

i'm clinging for siouxsie tour updates ~ she's here stateside.

They use backing tapes now. How can they rehearse songs to play live that have to be reworked when they supposedly haven't finished the album? Welcome to The Cure's world.

haha! Simon went blonde!
I already crawled back into the brunette batcave. We'll see how long he can last.
Retouching roots suck!
Then again his hair is short so he can damage it and you won't even be able to tell! Lucky!

like all men 40+, his hair has prolly gone grey, so you won't notice the roots so bad!

they're using backing tapes now? are you serious? if they are thats great!
