The Cure will play shows in Sydney and Melbourne in July as well as their Splendour show.
The Cure line-up is Robert Smith (voice/guitar), Simon Gallup (bass), Jason Cooper (drums), Roger O’Donnell (keys) and Reeves Gabrels (guitar). In the absence of a new album the band will perform “37 years of Cure songs” and may also roadtest the occasional unreleased song.
