Early announcement of something in 2029
ROBERT SMITH has announced THE CURE will RETIRE after the 50th anniversary of their debut album in 2029.
“I’m 70 in 2029, and that’s the 50th anniversary of the first Cure album [Three Imaginary Boys],” Smith said in a new interview with Matt Everitt. “If I make it that far, that’s it. In the intervening time, I’d like to include playing concerts as part of the overall plan of what we’re going to do. I’ve loved it; the last 10 years of playing shows have been the best 10 years of being in the band. It pisses all over the other 30-odd years! It’s been great.”
