    What concert/show are you going to go to next?

    TONIGHT: Patti Smith! This is a year-end tradition for me. I'm so bummed that I missed Michael Stipe's surprise opening for her at last night's show—I should have gone to both. Alas! Maybe he'll show up again tonight. Same venue. Fingers crossed…

    And yet...I always see tons of comments on Slicing Up Eyeballs and Brooklyn Vegan from people complaining about their shows being "too long" and the setlists being too obscure/unpredictable. You can't win! Go figure. :rolleyes:

    Second night setlist—almost the same as last night (3+ hours, 4 encores), but: added Push (<3!), Inbetween Days, Fascination Street / removed Before Three, High, Let's Go To Bed (in other words, EVEN BETTER). Banter from Robert before the third encore: "It used to be easy to decide what to...

    Now THIS is a fun setlist—clocking in at just over 3 hours. I f***ing love the Cure. I can't wait to see what they play tomorrow night… (via Chain of Flowers) The Cure at Hammersmith Apollo 12/21/14 Shake Dog Shake Kyoto Song A Night Like This alt.end Wailing Wall Bananafishbones The...

    I envy anyone who will be attending tonight and tomorrow's shows. They're going to be incredible. A couple of nice tweets today from Roger…

    What album are you listening to right now?

    I had this on earlier today after reading the Chris Isaak thread. I used to be a huge fan of his and then just kind of fell away—nice to find him again.

    Johnny Marr cancelled all shows until June 2015

    Re: FYI - Johnny cancels 3 shows Wow, that's sad. I can't imagine he'd cancel unless it was something really critical.

    Johnny Marr in the media

    That's definitely better than I thought it would be.

    That sounds terrible, but maybe I'm wrong.

    What 2014 releases did you buy?

    Well that's you. I'm me. I work in print, and I care about tangible objects a great deal. I'm not interested in trying to convince anyone that they can't love a digital download, but I've been buying music in physical form for more than 30 years now, and the thing I can hold means nearly as much...

    What concert/show are you going to go to next?

    Skinny Puppy! Tuesday!

    What 2014 releases did you buy?

    It matters to me, at least when it comes to vinyl vs download (I don't own a CD player anymore). I put very little personal value on downloaded albums, even though I always pay for them. The lack of a tangible object is directly related to the amount of time and attention I afford an album. I...

    What 2014 releases did you buy?

    This is making me feel like a really bad music consumer. All I buy these days are reissues. :straightface: I've become very lazy with new music… Morrissey - World Peace Is None of Your Business (LP, CD) Johnny Marr - Playland (DL) Echo & the Bunnymen - Meteorites (DL) Chrissie Hynde - Stockholm...

    What concert/show are you going to go to next?

    I'm considering it! He plays here a lot and I've seen him several times before, great shows always. This is another side project of his, Secret Project Robot, with Nels Cline from Wilco and Steve Shelley from Sonic Youth. Not really sure how interested I am...

    What concert/show are you going to go to next?

    Debating whether to see Sean Lennon again this Friday. I really should stay home and finish painting the apartment, considering Monday is the 1st…hmmmm.

    What concert/show are you going to go to next?

    I went to see him a couple of times, and the shows were great! I still think he's a dick, though.

    What was the first album you ever bought ? Bonus: Has it stood the test of time, your time ?

    I don't remember. My earliest records were lifted from my brother's bedroom: Adam Ant, Talking Heads, The Police. I also remember having a dubbed copy of Off The Wall that I was obsessed with, and of course there was a copy of Thriller in the house (there was a copy in everyone's house). If I...

    Seriously? That's the criteria? Damn. Well, yeah…in that case, it's just Robert! Personally, I'd advocate for everyone in the 87-89 lineup to be included. But wait, when the E Street Band were inducted this year, Patti Scialfa was definitely included, and she didn't join the band until 1984...

    What's the policy when it comes to inducting bands like the Cure that have had so many different lineups? Who gets in and who doesn't? Not sure it can be quantified, but the Chameleons?
