What is the weirdest Cure show you’ve heard ? By weird i mean, mood, different setlist vs the current tour, incident etc…
For me :
- Conrad Hotel 2000
- Lyon 1998
- Bataclan 1996

:-)

Also for the interest of us younger fans, please can you elaborate on why? I'm intrigued.

The only weird one I've attended was Manchester last year... Cut short and overall mood didn't feel great. I didn't enjoy the venue or the city either.
The best thing was bumping into wilgy on the train the next day!

For it's better to forget...

Legendary.

Can't remember where. They just played a hits set or something.

Sasquatch Festival. Bad weather, extremely late start. Short set to meager audience as a large number of them were at the EDM stage. Sound from there was bleeding over to mainstage. I didn't go but had multiple reports. Really dislike festivals.

Ah that explains it, I'm the same, I hate festivals never been to one and never want to go to one.

But a good festival can be amazing! If only there were more good festivals...

I've been lucky. I've never attended a bad show but I've only been to twenty. The 1996 Treviso Italy show where Robert is puking on stage couldn't have been fun. Although they did play numb live. A rare occurrence.
