The Cure
Live at Oslo Spektrum, Oslo, Norway
February 11, 2008
Recorded by Bull
Equipment: Core Sound LC binaural mics > iRiver H320 (Rockbox patched) 44.1kHz/16bit wav. Good sound quality. Taped from the middle of the floor, so there's a little audience noise from time to time.
Editing: Original wav > volume raised 3.4dB in Audacity > tracks split with CDWave > FLAC level 6. No fade-ins or fade-outs. The show is complete.
This was an evening of old hits and memories of younger days, but still quite magic. I was never a big Cure fan, but I do have some of their albums lying around. I joined a few friends who had a spare ticket, and got an enjoyable evening. Setlist below is taken from cure-concerts.de. There was a support band as well, 65 days of static, but they weren't much of interest. I recorded one or two of their tunes, but I'm not planning to spread it unless there's a demand for it.
Band line-up: Robert Smith, Simon Gallup, Jason Cooper, Porl Thompson.
