"...AND MORE TO COME!!!"

Don't forget that there are still more show announcements coming soon. Stay alert. More Cure shows are on the way!

2 US festivals will be announcing their lineups over the next few days, Seattle's Bumbershoot on May 2nd, and Austin City Limits on May 6th/7th. While no solid rumors have connected The Cure to either of these festivals, it's something to keep an eye on.

Update (05/02/13): No Cure for Bumbershoot. Sorry, Seattle/Pacific Northwest. Over to you, Austin City Limits. Don't you let us down, too.

Slicing Up Eyeballs' ongoing Best of the 80s project continues with their Best Album of 1982 poll, and of course, 'Pornography' is one of the options. 'Faith' won 1981, so lets make sure 'Pornography' gets the same honor.

Cure albums as books

"I thought I'd write and let you know about a series of prints I've made of three of The Cure's albums as if they'd been written as a series of books. I've taken Disintegration, Faith and The Head on the Door and created a mini-library for each, with each track as its own novel. Here's what I mean - this is the Faith print. You can see the other two in my Etsy shop here." (Thanks Simon)
