    1. I think in Brazil the ticket prices were set a little too high and the fans had little time from announcement of the tour and tickets going on sale. For example, B-52's concerts in October were announced about the same time as The Cure's. Rock in Rio tickets just went on sale (sold out in about 4 hours). Fans could not split the ticket purchase on their credit card. I think it was economics more than anything else...

    3. Lol what's with that "invisible reflection (2013)" album in the discography section in the cure's wikipedia page? a leak? a hoax?

    4. I've seen reports of 8000 or 9000 people at HSBC. My first reaction was to believe it was a typo, but i don't know.

    5. That seems about right, though there are no official numbers that I've seen. La Nacion reports under 10,000. A friend who went said there were lots of empty spots. Tickets were very expensive for this show.

    6. Because everyone knows The Cure is already done for 15 years and the only reason they're touring is because of the need of money.

      Playing songs for 1000 times again and again and again.....yaaawnwww.

    8. That's nonsense. Robert would be releasing the 'Reflections' dvd and Blu-ray if he were really in need of money.
