Another excellent recording though not as good as the 12/22 tape. This recording has a lot more of useless chatter and some more boomy bass. I was thinking about some equailization, but decided to give you this with warts and all other possible disturbances. Just because I think that it sounds fine the way it is. You'll decide for yourself, but be warned as on today's x-mas cake'n'coffee my dear sister-in-law stated that your fellow Spacebandit can't hear anything at all...hmm, maybe only that what I do not want to listen to?

Excellent recording with almost no chatters audible. Crowd noise is low, all instrument and vocals are clear. With one major exception...the mixing desk was definitely outarage... Sound gets a bit muddy and weird towards the increasing substance dropping on the main sound system. Just my guess. Another fine tape from our Mastertaper from Koeln...

The third of three Christmas Cure shows which were unofficially celebrating the 30th anniversary of the release of The Top album and subsequent tour. I nice gesture by Robert was to invite And Also The Trees along as support as they were 30 years ago. I attended the Liverpool show on that tour, my first Cure show. These three are the 54th, 55th and 56th times I’d seen the band, most of them great and lots unforgettable. This run of three compare well with other runs of three in London on the Kissing and Prayer tours. Although the set lists maybe lacking the variation of those shows, they definitely benefit from extra energy of the band not being worn out after a long World or European tour. Robert was chattier in these shows than he’d been in in the previous 50 odd I’d seen. Another nice touch, which I haven’t seen acknowledged elsewhere, was Robert’s dedication of Lovecats to ex manager Chris Parry, referred to as Bill. Anyway, enough of me, time to enjoy the show.

The Cure — британская рок-группа, образованная в Кроули (англ. Crawley, Сассекс, Англия) в 1976 году. За время существования состав группы неоднократно менялся, её единственным постоянным участником остаётся фронтмен, вокалист, гитарист и автор песен Роберт Смит.

Группа возникла в конце 1970-х, во время бума пост-панка и новой волны, пришедших в Великобритании на смену панк-року. Её дебютом стали сингл «Killing an Arab» и альбом Three Imaginary Boys (1979). В начале 1980-х The Cure записывали нигилистические, мрачные и наполненные трагизмом работы, которые сыграли важную роль в формировании готического рока. После выпуска Pornography (1982) дальнейшее существование группы было под вопросом, и Смит решил изменить её имидж. Начиная с сингла «Let’s Go to Bed» (1982) The Cure всё чаще стали записывать лёгкие, ориентированные на поп-сцену песни. B конце 1980-х благодаря серии удачных альбомов популярность The Cure росла, в том числе в США, где синглы «Lovesong», «Just Like Heaven» и «Friday I’m in Love» попали в Billboard Hot 100. К началу 1990-х The Cure стали одной из самых популярных групп в жанре альтернативного рока. По состоянию на 2004 год суммарные продажи всех альбомов составляли 27 миллионов копий. За более чем тридцать лет The Cure выпустили тринадцать студийных альбомов и тридцать девять синглов.

The Cure вновь выступили в небольшом зале Hammersmith Apollo в Лондоне, как много лет назад, со специальной 150-минутной рождественской программой. Планировалось два шоу, но вследствие небывалого ажиотажа при покупке билетов (10 тысяч билетов были раскуплены менее чем за полчаса) добавили третье шоу, 23 декабря.

The Cure return to Eventim Apollo for a clutch of Christmas concerts on Sunday 21 and Monday 22 December 2014
The band will be performing a 150 minute show playing songs drawn from their entire 37 year old catalogue including deep cuts, pop songs, fan favourites and surprises galore...
Reprising the role they performed at the same venue 30 years ago each concert will also feature And Also The Trees as support.
These are 'Christmas Specials' not to be missed!

DUE TO PHENOMENAL DEMAND THE CURE HAVE ADDED A THIRD AND FINAL DATE - TUESDAY 23RD DECEMBER - FOR IMMEDIATE ONSALE
