Reflections Tour

November 25, 2011

Very Good To Excellent Audience Recording @320

THE CURE “REFLECTIONS” - SEVEN FINAL PERFORMANCES
Featuring THREE IMAGINARY BOYS (1979), SEVENTEEN SECONDS (1980) and FAITH (1981) played in their entirety.

Due to overwhelming demand The Cure “REFLECTIONS” show - first experienced in the spring of 2011 at the Vivid Festival in Sydney - will be performed seven more times in November 2011.

"REFLECTIONS" sees an evolving line up of band members past and present playing the first three Cure albums live in their entirety - from the punchy, offbeat, starkly unadorned songs of Three Imaginary Boys (1979), through the increasingly shadowy and quixotic pieces of Seventeen Seconds (1980), to the singular melancholic grandeur of Faith (1981) - in a truly extraordinary concert experience.

This final chance to experience the "REFLECTIONS" show will happen in Europe at the Royal Albert Hall, London on Tuesday November 15th, and in the USA at the Pantages Theatre, LA on Monday 21st, Tuesday 22nd and Wednesday 23rd, and at the Beacon Theatre, NYC on Friday 25th, Saturday 26th and Sunday 27th.

The Cure - Live Emerald City, NJ. 1980

The Cure - Live Emerald City, 

Cherry Hill, NJ.

April 10, 1980 

Very Good to Excellent Audience Recording @160

This is the first show in the US as pointed out by Robert Smith himself after a few tracks. There were several changes to the lyrics, but really minor ones as that was just one line here and there. Pretty good show overall but a few mistakes on keyboards which made Robert to comment : "We're not playing very well tonight... Well some of us are". Surprisingly, Boys Don't Cry didn't appear on the handwritten setlist from that night, but they played it anyway.

A journalist by the name of Van Gosse happened to be there and recorded the entire set. He recently re-discovered the lost tape(s) and shared it with the interwebz. Of the tape, Gosse writes:

    “Way back, when I started writing about music (thanks to Davitt Sigerson), I interviewed lots of people and occasionally taped shows, so I could listen to them again.   So….in April 1980, Melody Maker gave me a big assignment to trail The Cure on their first US tour, and write about them.  Their publicist, Rhonda, took me to their US debut, at Emerald City in Cherry Hill, NJ, and I taped the attached.   Pretty great stuff!  They were releasing ‘A Forest,’ but still played all the original stuff, including ‘Killing an Arab’ as the encore.  The MM went on strike and my piece never ran, but it was a good time.  I remember what a hard case was Robert Smith, very determined, nothing sentimental or artsy about him. Below are my two pieces that did run, in the Voice and a short live review in the MM.  And the show itself, thanks to SFJ for compressing and cleaning up.”
