I contacted the Sydney Opera House today to ask if they had any information about the Relfections shows taped there in the vain hope that they might let slip some information........
Dear Mr. NauseaRockPig (not my real name),
Thank you for your email. I have made some enquiries regarding your question, bearing in mind that the concert took place in 2011. I have been advised that no recording was made for commercial distribution and that any filming which took place was for the archival records of the band themselves.
Thank you again and sorry we could not further assist.
Kind regards
Poos....
Well that is very saddening.
Ah well, I hope 2014 is a great one for Cure releases!

If I can comment on this aspect alone, remember that Robert is very particular about whomever the current lineup is.
Therefore I make my prediction that the concert DVDs will be exclusively from the 2013 tour(s).
I consider it highly likely that their selections will include the New Orleans show, simply because of Burn and its uniqueness. If that is the case, we will finally get a soundboard live version of that track. The Toyota booth's bass stereo impeded on the sound for the listeners that were actually at the New Orleans show. I could hear the Toyota junk music from the front row! So this seems a no-brainer.
Maybe one of those 40-song sets elsewhere in the Americas will be another selection from 2013, or that Texas show that Steve wants.
Either way, I consider it highly unlikely the DVD release will be anything from previous band lineups, it's a matter of royalties which are easier with the current team. That's my two cents, at least.
