[luisahumadamartens]

Fue genial ese concierto nosotro cantamos

[SuperAde1974]

I've loved the Cure since 7th grade but I fell in love with them all over again at Coachella that year. Like @Bxngmelly said, I have nothing but "mad respect" for the band who wouldn't quit even after Coachella pulled the plug on 'em.

[1shoriuki]

oh shit.. i'll cry

[rocanlover345]

i i loved the riot they made after they turn the stage off

[Lexpelliarmus]

You don't tell The Cure when to finish playing,The Cure tells you when they're finished playing.

[daltoni7]

This is freaking amazing

[heyu360]

So effin cool, i remember this. The best concert expierence i have had. Go Cure!

[gonzilla333]

This a very good version!

But you should check out mine its more close and the quality is very good!

[amyruthanne]

P.S. I saw them from the 4th row back in 2000 and that was always my best concert memory of seeing them...but this came in as a verrrrry close second. I loved how the crowd just smooshed even closer and started singing even louder when the venue shut them down. Which, again, they totally shouldn't have.

[amyruthanne]

Maitai, I wondered the same thing!

[marinasakimotofilm]

WTF I TOTALLY MISSED THIS. :( so sad.

[cecerra2]

This was indeed THE finest moment of Coachella 2009!

The perfect expression, in spite of the rules & regulations, from an Artist's spirit of "we're gonna play anyway"!

[shittyutubevideos]

the timing 4 dis song was perfect!!

all the amps and P.A.'s were turned off and it became so serene like the old shitty recording from the three imaginary boys album!

dont b fooled by the quality it was the best ending 2 coachella in my 6 years in a row that i have gone.

cure was rad and then there was a riot afterwards at the taj mahal lookin sculpture.

at that time it became 4/20 cos it was after midnight on 4/19 and we blazed a nice 420 joint!

good times! c ya next year

[rocanlover345]

ahhathat shit was funny they cut the sound off XD

[ity007]

I was there!!!! It was amazing!!!!!

[Bxngmelly]

Was there! Mad respect for the band!

[coutugeo]

Yo estuve ahí, aunque estaba muerto de cansancio fue una emoción enorme presenciar y cantar esta rolita.

The Cure y Depeche Mode para siempre.

[smallvilletoluca]

Que chido, espero yo algún día ir a un couchella pero los vi en México en el 2007 el palacio de los deportes y si tocan realmente bien, larga vida a robert y the cure....

[Later88]

Best band if the world

[unraveled76]

ah, i love this, even though i can barely hear robert you can hear the love for them...

[david3558]

Hey what did you use to record this?

[maitai212]

Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZK. It's quite a little camera.

[GHWTContent]

this is a fuck

[gonzilla333]

Check out my videos of the cure in coachella they are pretty good!!!

[Indiabghy]

Are you serious? I like it! found it as ringer over at Complimentarysongs. Com I had to get it, never seen this vid untill today ..its decent!

[flippinmarilyn]

I didn't get to see them =[

I was forced to leave early... and it freaking blew chunks.

[senhorfeijao]

They didn't plug off Paul McCartney for one single reason: The Cure is not The Beatles.

[fiufiu1604]

Viva Coachella and Mexicali!!!

[stonerbridge]

Makes me wanna cry... Damn P.C.S(post coachella syndrome)

[guatemalanchiq]

I WISH I WOULDA BEEN THERE!!!!!!

my favorite band!!!!!!!

[argamer]

[LucyStar7]

i would have sung with you if i had been there... shame!!!!

freaking amazing

[guatemalanchiq]

i would have been there singing at the top of my lungs for them

lucky you

[hendrixfan143]

Damn i was there, fucking legendary

[hendrixfan143]

the kiss was especially amazing

[bevrocksjared]

can only hear the crowd singing! lol

[psychedelictam]

this is the awesomest thing i have seen! and i have so much more respect for robert smith and the rest of the band for keep on playing no matter what was being turned off...its a freakin festival the people there need to quit going by time rules and just let loose..if they are worryed about getting home so soon then they shouldn't be doing that job then..The Cure lives on!

[elegyjay]

Thanks! Your sound on this was much better than mine and you were closer to the band!

[shelliebeans23]

RSX ROX OUR SOX!

[MagentaStraberry]

aww that was such a cute performance of that song. that was a fun night.

[maitai212]

I just want to know why they didn't pull the plug on Paul MCcartney. He went 45 minutes past curfew.

[gjredpill]

Why? It's a MUSIC festival! That's why people were paying a minimum of $120 bucks to see the show! Let them get their money's worth! Robert Smith kicks ass for still playingand most of the shows were great, but I could of done without the vibe of rampant totalitarian capitalism that was doing every thing it could to appear to be supporting the arts while extorting every last penny out of the fans and the workers.

[alanalanalana]

i couldn't believe they cut off these legends! That was such a great show.

[Chick6517]

Haha that's cool very entertaining to watch especially when i'm at work right now! I need to start watching more of youtube. YOUTUBE has EVERYTHING!

[birdmaddd]

I was there!

From the angle i was a bit ahead and to the left of you.

Anyway... amazing! I was blown away by them. I've been a huge fan for years but never went to a concert. I'm SO glad I went this time.

[orrigami]

i wish i could have been there...i didn't have money... i got to see my bloody valentine on thursday though...

[seoart]

I'm so glad that someone caught this on film! I've never seen the Cure play before and I was blown away! What an awesome way to end Coachella this year. I already cant wait for next year!

[bobby0987]

my friend caught the guitar, ya, their band manager took it tho

[bernhl]

NO ONE CUTS OFF FAT BOB!!!!!

[bigdoog21]

We all had a mini riot because we didnt want the weekend to end... a blast overall!!

[juanqarlos94]

I Was There and this was totally amazing!

and a such touching experience,

but everything was being really shut down by coachella people?

i mean, they were really throwin' em off?! xD

[plyror]

what happened

[juanqarlos94]

the thing was that the cure had already left the stage like three or four times and comeback to play like two or three more songs, it was 12:30 they still kept playing.

Just when they were about to start the song, the sound cut off and some lights.

then they cutted even screens and the bass amp, although that, they kept playing, people kept chearing, clapping and singing along so it was so, so awesome!

[TcountDdrunkulaL]

AMAZING no band can beat the cure....robert smith can only do good in my eyes

[johravi]

i was there, great stuff

[tuffskins]

had to be there, really fucking incredible.

[Humuhumu91]

The band has their set cut very short last time they played Coachella, and demanded a full 3 hour set as a condition of headlining in 2009.

Smith dropped hints about the band's true intentions throughout the night - to keep playing until removed.

Goldenvoice pulled the plug at 12:46. With only studio monitors, the band played three more songs, the lyrics carried into the remaining crowd in a giant sing-along.

A piece of magic, turning a giant festival into an intimate underground venue.

[NewClassOfSociety]

I was there! haha it was sick! too bad the didnt play friday im in love! haha igot to touch one stick! hahaha

[SirHatchporch]

I was there too. This was such a wonderful moment. The audience turned a frustrating moment into something really touching.

[omar619]

ahhh i was there too! BEST SHOW OF MY LIFE!!!

[BrandNew06]

i just read about think show on the front page of Yahoo.

sounded like an awesome show!

[julieswahn]

Wonderful! So cool that the audience knows the lyrics, and I am guessing they are a lot younger than I am (50) and I don't know the lyrics to this song, though it was huge "in my day." Fantastic! You know this meant a lot to the band.

[sleepydoll3]

It was magical!! I was lucky enough to be at the rail in front of Robert. Chills went through me when the audience sang and Robert mouthed the words to GH afterwards. He is LEGEND!!! Thank you Cure and the fans that made this night one to remember.

[Inyourdreams21]

Robert smith and the cure fuck-in rule!

best nite ever!!!

[talespenelope]

so rock and roll

an amazing moment.

[fsharp69]

This year was faaaaking awesome!!!! The Cure out-did hemselves! PROLIFIC. Legendary!

[batgirl8x8]

Sigh, wish I was there!! Looks like an awesome show!

[ndreaftw1989]

This was AMAZING/

What happened around 1:00 that made everyone cheer? aha

[ndreaftw1989]

Nevermind. The lights went off, right? mhm

[poopy1243]

i was in the very front were the camera crew was.... i grabbed the guitar that he threw..... it was fucking epic.... but they took it away :(((

[sleepydoll3]

So lucky you were!! I saw that happen. I was right behind you guys. Then saw Jeremy come grab it. I would have ran off with it.

[Tadzumz]

I was there and when I saw Robert throw the guitar I was so stoked for whoever caught it!!! Then I saw online yesterday that they took it away... I'm so pissed for you!!!!!

[juanqarlos94]

throw the guitar?

when did he threw it?

[hapsdagek4]

this was the greatest end to a coachella that i have ever experienced!!

[Kramer025]

AWESOME!!! makes get all tingly inside watching this seeing how the fans getting into it and staying after the power cut off

[soundofmurder]

Amazing show, I wish I could have gone, but I spent all my money on the Vegas show...which was spectacular to say the least.

[marcomeza]

best day of my life thanks!!!!!!!! fuck coachella, viva the cure!!!

[LucyStar7]

wish i could have been there
