The Cure : Mark Disintegration’s 30th

The Cure will mark the 30th anniversary of Disintegration by playing it in full Down Under.

Robert Smith and company will also perform “a selection of rarely performed B-sides plus specially curated deep catalogue cuts” as part of Sydney, Australia’s Vivid LIVE festival series on May 24th, 25th, 27th and 28th at the Sydney Opera House.

In announcing the shows, Vivid LIVE called them “the world premiere of these 30th anniversary performances,” which has fans buzzing that more full albums shows will happen elsewhere. The Cure have a series of 20 European festivals booked for the summer, but those are expected to be regular sets.

Disintegration is by far the most popular album released by the 2019 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees in the U.S., as it’s gone double platinum and spun off their only Top 10 hit here, “Lovesong.”
