In an email to fans, Robert Smith vowed to keep ticket prices reasonable, writing: “THE CURE HAVE AGREED ALL TICKET PRICES, AND APART FROM A FEW HOLLYWOOD BOWL CHARITY SEATS, THERE WILL BE NO ‘PLATINUM’ OR ‘DYNAMICALLY PRICED’ TICKETS ON THIS TOUR.”
Their website also says that tickets have been priced by the band to “benefit fans and our efforts to block scalpers and limit inflated resale prices”, supported by ticketing partners.
The Cure have not toured the US since 2016, but performed at Pasadena Daydream Festival and Austin City Limits in 2019.
Smith has repeatedly teased The Cure’s new record to NME as a dark, “merciless, relentless ” piece, inspired by a period of great loss and in a similar spirit to their 1989 gothic art-rock album ‘Disintegration’.
Reviewing The Cure in London this December , NME described the show as “an unusual, but thrilling festive party”.
Elsewhere, Noel Gallagher released Robert Smith‘s remix of High Flying Birds ‘ track ‘Pretty Boy’ this week, with The Cure frontman sharing that he was “surprised and delighted” when when the former Oasis singer-songwriter asked him to “remix this gorgeous song”.
