After they concert is finished, Robert will walk back onstage with his accoustic guitar and plas an incredible new song and end with the words 'see you next year'.

I'm sad, but I think Robert will announce the end of the band at this show. I know he once said 'We're not the kind of band that would announce that we were ending, it would be more likely that people have realized The Cure haven't done anything for a long time, so it's obvious we have split"
Robert has said a lot of things though, I hope I'm wrong.
My biggest hope is that they do announce a new album at this show, with a great tour to follow!

This thought pops up every gig now, I wouldn't have been surprised if they'd stopped after the last tour. I'm sure he once said ages ago he'd retire at 55, and more recently said he wouldn't still be playing shows at 60. But he's also said he's really enjoying the band at the moment, so who knows what to expect, we never know with him!
On the recent BBC Radio 6 interview, RS said they were planning shows for next year (as well as working towards a new album), so fingers crossed Hyde Park isn’t ‘it’ for them. He also mentioned the anniversary of Disintegration next year and maybe marking that.
Still, they don’t always stick to what they say in interviews and life’s an unpredictable beast, so I reckon we’re best off treating every show as their last, just in case.

Recent quotes from Smith are enough to convince me that we will see the band beyond Hyde park. A last tour promoting a last album - The Cure Forever - would not only be fitting but utterly utterly glorious.

Who knows with them? Excuse another interview reference, but RS said something in a Scottish news show years back about wanting to turn them into a 'swing' band one day! Nonsense, no doubt, but that would be some bizarre retirement project

I'm sure, after everything, they would want to go out on a high. That is within reach and i can't see them not going for it.
