The only Robert content is the brief intro.

Shirley Manson on playing Robert's TCT shows

 From NME:

The alt-rock pioneers will be playing as part of a stacked line-up at London’s Royal Albert Hall this month in aid of Teenage Cancer Trust – a cause close to Manson’s heart. Having stepped in as curator for this year in place of The Who’s Roger Daltrey, Smith has hand-picked a week of gigs from the likes of Wolf Alice, Manic Street Preachers, Chvrches, My Bloody Valentine, Mogwai and Elbow.

The NME Icon Award alumni revealed that the invite came through via one of Smith’s legendary all caps lock emails, at which point she “just about fucking lost my marbles!”

I’ve loved The Cure for as long as I can remember, since I was about 14-years-old,” she told NME. “To get one of those famous emails from someone I admire so much was gobsmacking, really. He just asked us if we’d be interested in performing in support of Teenage Cancer Trust.

We didn’t really need any introduction and all of us were immediately like, ‘Yes, we are going to do this’. Management were like, ‘Hold on!’ but we said, ‘No, we have to make this happen’. Bless our management for figuring it all out.”
