I've Waited Hours for This.......The Cure Live in Hong Kong




Excellent performance by The Cure last night, just a shame that they played at the Asia World Arena which meant a half hour train ride out to the Airport to see them, whereas if they had played the Convention and Exhibition Centre in Wan Chai it would have meant only a 5 minute walk from my apartment.

Robert Smith, (looking rather uncannily like Dawn French), led the band through what he said was their longest live performance ever (around 3 hours), featuring most of their hits as well as some very old and rare tracks. Quite surprisingly keyboards did not feature in the set up, just good old guitars, giving them a bit of an edgier sound live. Here's what they played (if I remember correctly):

Open
Fascination Street
alt.end
The Blood
a Night Like This
The Walk
End of the World
Lovesong
The Figurehead
Kyoto Song
Hot Hot Hot!
A Strange Day
Push
In Between Days
Friday I'm in Love
Just Like Heaven
Primary
If Only Tonight We Could Sleep
The Kiss
Shake Dog Shake
Pictures of You
Lullaby
Never Enough
Edge of the Deep Green Sea
Wrong Number
One Hundred Years
Shiver and Shake
End

1st Encore
Let's Go To Bed
Close To Me
Why Can't I Be You?

2nd Encore
A Forest
Boys Don't Cry
