The Cure

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

I got there as soon as they went on sale and bagged Wembley tickets. I imagine they'll sell like hot cakes, especially if I'm not the only one hoping / assuming that things will look better a year from now. I'm really excited, I've loved them for years but never seen them live!

From others I've spoken to the standing pre-sale tix for Wembley went in seconds.
Already seen Cardiff tickets yesterday on viagogo for £200 before they even went on sale :evil:

Yeah, I saw that too. Gits!

I got mine at 10.01, and asked for best available, and we've ended up seated on the left hand side - however, very close to the stage, so that's good. This website is pretty dinky, showing me what it should look like - https://www.seatingplan.net/wembley-arena/seat-block-s6

Once the initial scramble for tickets has died down, I'll open up a "marketplace" at TheCureCommunity in the live 2020 board. So if anyone's missed out and on the hunt or has spares they want to sell, I daresay that'll be a good place to keep an eye out.
Bonus, they'll only be face value or less so none of that touting price gouging bollox :)
Cheers.

I was there, in Munich, and it was a brilliant concert. True, we didn't get Faith, but else it was great. They played one of my absolute favourites, A Strange Day, and couldn't go much wrong from there. The setlist for the regular set and the first encore was rather dark, ethereal, epic, while the second encore (9 songs) was hits only (the good ones). Robert, as usual, didn't want to leave, and after several minutes of extended outro of A Forest, where everybody should expect that this was the end, they played Boys Don't Cry as a farewell.
Been there, done that, bought the t-shirt (which was quite cheap, really).

Just got ticket for Leeds, not seen them since a show at the Royal Albert Hall a few years ago when they played well past the curfew it seemed, was a Princes Trust show and I was on the very top row of the top tier and it was still incredible.

Did anyone notice the guy who won last night's episode of Mastermind? His specialist subject was The Cure.

"No! The words you sang were wrong!"

Well, Wembley last night was totally brilliant. Nearly three hours, Bob seemed to be having a really good time, and what a songbook. Awesome. And when we all got out everything was covered in snow.
