The band headlined Primavera Sound in Barcelona. They played songs from the deep archives. Fans struggled to maintain composure. “It was like looking into a mirror,” said attendee Brenda Glickman. Ms. Glickman is the Senior Vice President of Mournful Contemplation at GothCorp. “I felt seen. I felt understood. I felt like I needed to buy more black clothing.” The Cure tour is hitting emotional notes.
Smith made a surprise appearance. He joined Olivia Rodrigo on stage. They performed their new song. It is called “what’s wrong with me.” The collaboration confused some fans. Others found it deeply relatable. The Cure tour continues to defy expectations.

Yesterday, the band closed the North Festival. It was in Porto, Portugal. The setlist included more obscure tracks. The crowd swayed in unison. A light drizzle began. It enhanced the overall mood. “This is what life is about,” whispered fan Gary Grumbles. Mr. Grumbles is the Chief Unhappiness Officer for the Society of Perpetual Sighs. “The ethereal sadness. The crushing weight of existence. It’s beautiful.” The Cure tour promises more of the same.
