Reviews
The Cure was really expected in the Olympia
and was warmly welcome on stage. Outside the tickets at the black
market had reached 100 euros (they were given
for free originally).
That was not really acoustic, even more electric
than the "Greatest Hits" electro-accoustic version. The big
difference really was that Roger had a seat
in front of a piano to play! I'll post a more detailed review later. All
i can say is that was a good show, highlighted
by Shake Dog Shake, a real cool M, a great Just Like Heaven,
and a wonderful From the edge of the Deep
Green Sea.

"Raphael" formatted radio Fm, sick
"Callogero" A speaks about Simon
"Daho" hahaha
"mickey 3 d" politically correct
"Placebo" set list intended for the blue public flower of brian. and........
THE CURE :
Surprising, the set list starting with "jupiter
crash landing;, destabilizing.
Shake dog shake, electro version acoustic,
powerful and the public starts to enjoy immediatly.
Before three, enthralling. The voice of Robert
is splendid.
"M" played a little slowly which loses blow
of its flame.
"Alt end" powerful.
"eotw" perfect.
"In between days", "just like heaven"
put in delirious people and all clap in their hands and sang.
"deep green sea" can be a little slow but
always also fabulous.
"Going Nowhere", the new "Faith"?, masterly.
Jason was a little tired, Simon laughs by looking
at the audience which howls his name!! The bass player was v
ery in form.
Roger sitting behind his keyboard was less
smiling as his practice, (feel a lassitude?)
Perry, discrete and effective as with its
practice.
Robert often smiling by understanding the
titles requested by the people such "pornography", "fire in cairo",
"Shiver and shake".
Robert apologize not to be able to continue
the show longer, put us an explosive "boys don't cry" as a recall.
Enthusiastic public , formidable environment.
The regret, too short concert. Honest concert, not forgetting that
was a "game concert radio fm " ; Netherless
many places bought on the black market.(hot price)!!!
Thanks the Cure

Well, just come from this famous mini-show…one hour I think i didn’t remember !
5 bands played before The Cure with a very
bad Placebo and a french singer named Callogero who said he play
bass because of Simon...
A good Shake Dog Shake ! New tracks are very
good live...especially “Going Nowhere”. Smith smiles a lot,
laughs with Roger, well again a good show,
without heavy sound ! See them on Saturday..."
