The Cure Announce Seven Final 'Reflections' UK & US Shows
Tuesday, 27 September 2011
Written by Jon Stickler
The Cure have announced seven final performances of their 'Reflections' show in November.
'Reflections' sees an evolving line up of band members past and present playing the first three Cure albums live in their entirety - from the punchy, offbeat, starkly unadorned songs of 1979's 'Three Imaginary Boys', through the increasingly shadowy and quixotic pieces of 19080's 'Seventeen Seconds', to the singular melancholic grandeur of 'Faith' in 1981'.
This final chance to experience the 'Reflections' show will happen in Europe at the Royal Albert Hall, London on Tuesday November 15th, and in the USA at the Pantages Theatre, LA on Monday 21st, Tuesday 22nd and Wednesday 23rd, and at the Beacon Theatre, NYC on Friday 25th, Saturday 26th and Sunday 27th.
