Such teases.

mutiple pastic single releases in boxes, such a 90's thing to do!
― akm, Sunday, 27 April 2008 14:46 (sixteen years ago) link
Things not mentioned here yet are that the album itself comes out in September and that the single mixes will be different from the album versions.
― Ned Raggett, Sunday, 27 April 2008 14:50 (sixteen years ago) link
also not mentioned: whether it will be any good or not
― akm, Sunday, 27 April 2008 15:01 (sixteen years ago) link
I want to believe etc.

i've still got that HIGH box somewhere. my friend and me almost drove all the way to liverpool to watch the premiere of the HIGH video too, in HMV, as there wasn't one near where we lived. man i wouldn't even click a YOU TUBE link for the new video these days.

About time with a new album, but I am kind of just as interested in the last bunch of the remasters. "Disintegration" is in a lot of discount campaigns here, so I guess it's just a matter of time now.
― Geir Hongro, Sunday, 27 April 2008 22:44 (sixteen years ago) link
the single mixes will be different from the album versions.
more likely that they're just 3-4 minute 7" versions of 7-8 minute album cuts than that they're especially different mix-wise tho? especially if they're still doing the "label mix"/"Robert mix" dual-formatting of the album.
― energy flash gordon, Monday, 28 April 2008 01:47 (sixteen years ago) link
Yeah, that 'High' video viewing.. Went to that. Got the box (with the balloon). As I say upthread, "Friday I'm in Love" was their last decent 'hit' single, as in "didn't just sell to rabid/rabbit Cure fans"
So, maybe they're trying to get that back with the boxset thing.
Wasn't there something about the album coming in a 'one disc' version for the record company, and a 'deluxe' 2 disc version for Robert?
― Mark G, Monday, 28 April 2008 09:20 (sixteen years ago) link
that waas the original plan, yes. I still think this will only come out as a regular single album.
― baaderonixx, Monday, 28 April 2008 09:33 (sixteen years ago) link
Hmm.. The 'announcement' is due for today, so maybe it is that 'double'.
― Mark G, Monday, 28 April 2008 09:43 (sixteen years ago) link
Going to the Boston show tonight (Dan P - you going?) The set lists from the previous two shows are incredible. I'm so excited!
― ENBB, Monday, 12 May 2008 15:23 (sixteen years ago) link
Yes, I am going!!! ^_^ Super-excited!
We ended up with floor tickets, row P; how about you?
― HI DERE, Monday, 12 May 2008 15:38 (sixteen years ago) link
New songs are sounding very good so far!
― baaderonixx, Monday, 12 May 2008 15:40 (sixteen years ago) link
We're in 106 row E which I'm a little nervous is going to suck but have no idea since I've never been to AA before. It won't matter that much though because it's going to be awesome wherever we're stting!
― ENBB, Monday, 12 May 2008 16:07 (sixteen years ago) link
Three weeks to go to the Hollywood Bowl show. Can't wait!
― Ned Raggett, Monday, 12 May 2008 16:26 (sixteen years ago) link
baader, where are you finding the new songs?
― HI DERE, Monday, 12 May 2008 17:15 (sixteen years ago) link
I've only seen them once before and that was 12 or 14 years ago and L never has. One of the three (!!) encores they played last week was four songs all from Seventeen Seconds. When I read it to him over the phone earlier today I heard him gasp - ha. The tickets were part of my 1st anniversary present (paper) to him. :-) I have a feeling it's going to be pretty great.
― ENBB, Monday, 12 May 2008 17:18 (sixteen years ago) link
Very nice. Not seen them since 2000 since that whole festival thing in 2004 was non-fascinating -- gotta be full-on long sets or nothing with them.
― Ned Raggett, Monday, 12 May 2008 17:20 (sixteen years ago) link
I'll be hitting the Chicago show this Saturday, very very excited as I've never seen them live before.
― jon /via/ chi 2.0, Monday, 12 May 2008 19:32 (sixteen years ago) link
I also haven't seen them since 2000. AM VERY EXCITED
― HI DERE, Monday, 12 May 2008 19:34 (sixteen years ago) link
I haven't seen them since '85. they were decent then tho
― J0hn D., Monday, 12 May 2008 20:09 (sixteen years ago) link
I am trying to get my sis to get me a ticket for Charlotte. No other show could get me this excited at this point in time.
― wanko ergo sum, Monday, 12 May 2008 20:13 (sixteen years ago) link
They were beyond awesome in '98.
― HI DERE, Monday, 12 May 2008 20:19 (sixteen years ago) link
You saw the 1998 tour? At the small venues? Damn I'm jealous.
― Ned Raggett, Monday, 12 May 2008 20:24 (sixteen years ago) link

Great Cure tour regrets -- missing the 1989 show at Dodger Stadium, knowing there was no chance in hell of getting to see them in 1998.
― Ned Raggett, Monday, 12 May 2008 20:46 (sixteen years ago) link
I sold my tickets to the Patriot Center show last Friday on ebay at a loss. : (

;_; (for you)
― HI DERE, Monday, 12 May 2008 21:03 (sixteen years ago) link
Dan - it says the show starts at 7:30 - that probably means doors at 7:30 and opening act at 8:30 right? Just trying to figure out what time to get there.
― ENBB, Monday, 12 May 2008 21:05 (sixteen years ago) link
Is there an opening act? I didn't think there was one.
― HI DERE, Monday, 12 May 2008 21:06 (sixteen years ago) link
65daysofstatic, I believe.
― Ned Raggett, Monday, 12 May 2008 21:07 (sixteen years ago) link
Yup, confirmed on their Myspace site:

ugh, I might be in trouble because I had my wife park the car in a garage that closes at midnight
― HI DERE, Monday, 12 May 2008 21:08 (sixteen years ago) link
hmmmm - the last couple shows started at 9 (which is when I suspect they'll start playing tonight) and went until just after midnight w/ the encores so you might want to move car if possbile. :-(
