Robert in Rolling Stone (Italy)

The latest issue of Rolling Stone (Italy) features Robert on the cover, some photos and an interview. Don't get too excited, it's just part of the Hong Kong Ham interview from last July.

Want a fan meetup and after party in Rotterdam?

"My name is Danny Hoogendijk and I am a huge Cure fan. I have a bar/restaurant near the Ahoy venue in Rotterdam. I would like to know how I can arrange a pre-meet for some Cure fans before the show and if there are enough people interested maybe even an afterparty. Cure music will be playing almost the entire day and also after the show. Normally my closing time is 20.00. but if enough people like the idea i could also open up after the concert. website: www.champselysees.nl."

E-mail Danny if you are interested: dannyenkaren@cs.com.

Please Project now The Only One?

During the show in Antwerpen tonight, Robert introduced Please Project with "I think this is called The Only One."
