The Cure announce details of 26 US dates !
The Cure will hit the US roads in 2016, supported by Scottish dreampop act The Twilight Sad.
The band will play 26 concerts in total. Today they announced all of the dates with the exception of one.
The live line-up will consist of Robert Smith, Simon Gallup (on bass), Jason Cooper (on drums), Roger O’Donnell (on keyboards) and Reeves Gabrels (on guitar). As Smith says in the press release: “We’ll be performing 37 years of Cure songs, mixing hits, rarities, favourites, and as yet unreleased tracks in a brand new stage production.”
Let’s see if The Cure will also find some time to record the follow-up to the 2008 album “4:13 Dream”, it would be the band’s 14th studio album since “Three Imaginary Boys” was released in 1979. In the meantime enjoy this The Cure tribute compilation:

Why we ask
Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.
