I might have to go to this. No word on ticket prices though.

[RollOn]

Being at Rod Laver i'd assume us underagers could go?

I Reckon the tickets would be pretty damn expensive though.

Yes. Its an all ages event unless specified.

[Sofia]

Oh my lord would be SO good. Hell expensive though. Ahh anything to hear Why Can't I Be You though.

[May]

Robertooooo Smiiiiiiiiiif Robertoooooooo Smiiiiiiiiiiiiiif

[Quakin Jake]

I was going to go to see them... until I found out tickets are $150...

[Kev]

Ticket prices (For Melbourne):

Floor - gen admin
$119.90

Lower- A Reserve
$119.90

Upper - B Reserve
$99.90

Ticketmasters website won't work for me at all. So I cant tell you prices for the shows their selling for. No doubt it will be similar.


Also, there is no support act for the show. Its just the Cure onstage from 7:45pm until 11ish.

[Kev]

I got my tickets earlier today. Woooooot.

Im sitting fairly close to the stage which is good. Should be a good night.

I;m going to see Gotye before hand at the Athenaeum then seeing the Cure a couple of hours after that! Yeah

[AlinaPOW]

Oh to have a job.

[Kev]

The show was friggen awesome.

Played for almost 3 hours.

Closer To Me, Boys Don't Cry, Lets Go To Bed and 10:15 Saturday night were highlights.
Photos to come soonish

[AlinaPOW]

kids talking about it wherever i went at school today... so jealous. Tix sold out so quick. I blame my mate who's entire extended family + friends went from the one batch of tickets.

[damo0945]

did they do A Letter To Elise? that and Love Cats are pretty much the only Cure songs i know... unless they do All Of This by Blink 182...(veeeeery doubtful)

[Kev]

[AlinaPOW]

jumping someone else's train, fire in cairo, grinding halt, just like heaven.... oooooh man. *drool*
The friend who's entire family + friends went also saw the cure when they were down here and apparantely love cats isn't much of a live song... which is a shame...
What a ridiculously long set! That really sets a benchmark for other bands!

[Kev]

Apparently they had another 3 encores to do for the Melbourne gig, but due to curfew at Rod Laver, they had to scrap it.

There was something like 16 or so more songs to be played :shock:

[AlinaPOW]

god DAYUMN. That is a LOT of songs.
