The Cure in Holland

Circus Tour 1981

Tent2

Why a circus tent?

In their pretty brief existence, The Cure had already performed hundreds of shows, only within a couple of years. They had been playing the English and European club circuit multiple times. By the last quarter of 1980, when they were trying out new songs live for the next album Faith , the band were becoming a bit tired of playing the same bleak venues with poor acoustics over and over again. The idea arose to play in less obvious and more atmospheric places, like old buildings or churches (which would have suited their new songs quite well I think).

A church tour appeared to be a bridge too far. However, Dutch impresario Fred Zijlstra was willing to think along about a different approach and came up with the circus tent, which idea actually originated from his co-organiser Frans de Bie. The Cure were in to try something new. In this interview you can read some more background information about how the circus tent idea took shape.

Tour logistics

The crew that travelled along with The Cure on the Circus Tour consisted of about 30 people. Besides The Cure’s own road crew, there were young Dutch men and women among them, who basically volunteered to build up and break down the circus tent every day, mostly for the adventure. Not only the concert venue itself needed to be built up from zero on the empty grass fields where The Cure Circus called at. After the tent had been constructed, the stage had to be set up, then the PA system (hired from Pink Floyd), the lights, projectors and screens, a bar and a merchandise stand. On the Dutch roads of June ’81 a lot of people must have driven past this remarkable Cure Circus convoy with several trucks, cars, caravans and a mobile cash desk. Food for the crew had to be prepared on-site and could be eaten in the canteen bus. Early in the tour the toilet vehicle broke down, one of the reasons why the band themselves (wisely) chose to stay in hotels.

The standard set list on this tour was:

The Holy Hour, In Your House, The Drowning Man, 10:15 Saturday Night, Accuracy, The Funeral Party, M, Primary, Other Voices, All Cats Are Grey, Three Imaginary Boys, At Night, Fire In Cairo, Play For Today, Grinding Halt, A Forest, Faith

Encore 1: Jumping Someone Else’s Train, Another Journey By Train, Killing An Arab

Encore 2: Boys Don’t Cry, I’m Cold, Forever (not sure if both encores have been played on all dates)

The weather

Despite that the 21 st of June marks the beginning of Summer in the Northern Hemisphere, the last ten days of June 1981 were everything but hot, dry or pleasant holiday weather. Call it a typical Dutch Summer, with a lot of rain, wind and rather chilly temperatures. Obviously these conditions had more impact on the whole entourage than usually, because this leg of the Picture Tour had quite a camping feel to it. But by going through this ‘ordeal’ together, the travelling companions developed a very special bond.

21 June 1981 – Amsterdam, Evenementen-terrein, Jan van Galenstraat

By June 21 st 1981, The Cure had already played over 50 shows on the Picture Tour. They kicked off mid-April with an extensive UK tour, did a couple of shows in Ireland and then travelled to Belgium and Germany, almost without any days off. The night before Amsterdam, The Cure had played in Essen in the Ruhr area. From there it must have been about a 3 hours drive to Amsterdam in those days. Initially the concert was planned to take place at the Oude RAI premises, but for some reason it was relocated to a field at the Jan van Galenstraat, close to the Erasmus Park.

In The Cure’s official biography Ten Imaginary Years it is mentioned that June 21 st 1981 was the day Lol’s mother passed away. According to this book he received the sad news during the concert (backstage, after the main set) in Sittard (see below), which was three days later. I guess it might be possible that in their memory they have swapped some dates in hindsight. Maybe Lol got this message in Amsterdam or in Harderwijk the next day?

22 June 1981 – Harderwijk, Festival-terrein aan de Parkweg

Harderwijk is a provincial town by the IJsselmeer (a sort of inland sea in the Netherlands). It is considered to be part of the Dutch Bible Belt. Not a very obvious location for a post-punk concert you would think, but then again maybe eligible given the title of The Cure’s latest album. 😉

On the right is a snippet from a local newspaper announcing the gig. On the same page there is a little article honouring the candidates from a near village who had just obtained their type writing certificate!

23 June 1981 – Arnhem, Evenementen-terrein bij de Rijnhal

The gig in Arnhem is the first one on the Circus Tour of which a live recording is circulating. It is striking how the band sounded like a well-oiled machine at this stage, which is no wonder given the huge amount of gigs they were doing at the time. With Lol’s excellent tight, mechanical drum beats, Simon’s note perfect bass lines and Robert’s meandering chord strokes and echoing voice, The Cure had created a unique style of their own, recognizable among thousands.

The set was being built up with quite slow and atmospheric songs, starting with the trio The Holy Hour , In Your House and The Drowning Man . You can hear that as of the next song 10:15 Saturday Night the crowd is getting on its feet, singing and clapping along. During the intro of A Forest , when Lol starts the beat, the crowd goes ‘Hey! Hey! Hey!…’.

Though the temperatures were low outside, the atmosphere inside the tent seemed rather stuffy. After All Cats Are Grey you can hear a couple complaining about the heat. This guy says: ‘Ik zweet me kapot… Veel te warm die tent!’ [meaning: ‘I sweat my ass off here… That tent is way too hot!’]

As usual on The Picture Tour, the last song of the main set – Faith – was played in an extended version with improvised lyrics. In Arnhem Robert repeatedly sings ‘Slowly the picture fades…’, a line that would occur more often on Faith versions during this tour and seemed to continue on the themes of the new album, about getting older, departure, loss…

24 June 1981 – Sittard, Terrein Serviam, Haspelsestraat (‘t Knoakeveldje)

Sittard, a small city in the Province of Limburg, in between the borders of Germany and Belgium, was the southernmost date on the Circus Tour. Here the gig had been organized in cooperation with Jan Smeets of Buro Pinkpop, who would also book The Cure as headliner for the Pinkpop Festival editions of 1986 and 2012.

In early 2015 a short interview with Jan Smeets about his memories of The Cure was published online . Jan revealed some information about the Circus Tent show in Sittard. He told that the gig even made it to the Council meeting due to noise pollution. Apparently the budget for the organization of the concert was fl. 13.000,- (in Dutch guilders), which would amount to approximately EUR 5.900,- nowadays. Jan also kept some other documents in his file, including The Cure’s rider. According to him it mentioned 1 bottle of dry white wine, 1 bottle of medium white wine, 12 cans of beer, but I guess it could also be some more…

This gig also received mentioning in The Cure’s official biography Ten Imaginary Years, for very sad reasons:

“Robert: (…) at Sittard on 24 th of June, just before we went on stage for an encore, someone came up to Lol and told him to phone England urgently. They told him ‘Your mother’s dead’ – simply, just like that. We went back on stage and played ‘Faith’. Lol started, played for about a minute, and then stopped and just sat there without moving. We all returned to England the following day and we played the cassette of that concert at his mother’s funeral. It was very strange. After the ceremony, we went to get drunk and Lol decided we absolutely must restart the tour or he’d go mad. It was very hard… horrible, even if the music was perfect for the circumstances…”

Paul Evers, journalist for the Dutch music magazine Oor, followed the band around on the last couple of days of the Circus Tour. He wrote: “Meanwhile I know that his [Lol’s, LF] mother died a couple of days earlier and this event hangs over the three members of the group like a melancholic, greyish veil. Later on Robert will tell that he hasn’t done any interviews since, because he just couldn’t do it anymore (…). Lol Tolhurst just kept going: ‘The others said I had to return to England straight away and if I would have wanted to stay there, they would have cancelled the tour immediately. That’s friendship. I came back because I felt I had to continue. And my mother would have wanted that we would keep going. She was very involved with The Cure.’”

Jeff Apter interviewed Lol Tolhurst for the unofficial Cure biography Never Enough. Lol told Jeff: “When we were in Germany, I came back to see her; she was staying with my sister who was a registered nurse. I knew she had about a month. I told everyone on the crew that if I got a call about her before a show, tell me afterwards because there’s not much I can do. We were in Holland when my brother called. I drove down to Amsterdam that night, flew back, saw everyone, made the funeral arrangements and then kept touring because I figured that’s what my mother would want. Those few following nights after were the weirdest shows I’d ever played. There’s a little causeway at the top of Holland [maybe Lol is referring to the Afsluitdijk, when they drove from The Hague to Leeuwarden, LF] and I remember driving along that a day or two after she died, and I saw these swans on one side in the freshwater and also in the sea, which always struck me as very weird.”

Again, due to a tight schedule of many similar concerts and clouded memories it still may be possible that this all did not happen in Sittard but somewhere else that week. Anyway, these must have been very difficult and emotional times for Lol and the band, only aged 22 at the time. The decision of Lol to keep touring under the circumstances, travelling back and forth to England in one day and performing again the same night, shows how passionate and dedicated he was for The Cure.

25 June 1981 – Den Bosch, Zuiderpark aan de Hekellaan

The show in Den Bosch is the best documented concert on the Circus Tour as it has been recorded for Dutch national radio. In total, about 2/3 of the concert has been broadcasted by the Dutch broadcasting association VARA, divided into three parts, throughout the eighties. These are the songs of the broadcasts, if I am correct in the following broadcasting order:

I – Three Imaginary Boys, At Night, Fire In Cairo, Play For Today, Grinding Halt

II – 10:15 Saturday Night, Accuracy, The Funeral Party, M, Primary, Other Voices

III – Primary, Three Imaginary Boys, A Forest, Faith

According to the website of the Dutch Institute for Image and Sound it appears that there should still exist about two hours of recorded material of this concert in the archives. Obviously it would be great if they would broadcast or release the entire show some day. Not so hard to imagine a sleeve for this live album: a big circus tent, with on top Dutch flags and The Cure’s ‘drop C’ logo! 🙂

26 June 1981 – Vlissingen, Parkeerterrein Nollebos

Vlissingen

This gig was reviewed in a local newspaper. The journalist observed ‘frenzied scenes’ at the concert and wrote:

The music of The Cure isn’t quite cheerful and the lyrics do not expose the most happy sides of existence (the group is being regarded as part of the ‘doom-division’ of pop music), but the response of the Vlissingen audience in the packed and scorching circus tent negated this opinion in all respects.

Initially the performance was full of dreary and mystic atmospheres, which are so characteristic for The Cure, but towards the end of the concert it became more and more a musical happening, in which the audience reached the boiling point when the first tones of the hit ‘A Forest’ resounded.

Then the performance couldn’t be better and the the group was being called back for two encores.

27 June 1981 – Rotterdam, Park bij de Euromast

Also the show in Rotterdam has been reviewed. Louis du Moulin wrote the following article for ‘Het Vrije Volk’:

Full tent at special Cure night

Rotterdam – the Circus Tour of the English pop group The Cure across the Netherlands is at least in one respect a great success. Commercially, the expensive ten-day trip surpasses all expectations. Every place where the caravan chooses to bivouac, the enormous tent is full. That was also the case last Saturday night in the park next to the Euromast. Almost 2.000 fans experienced an alternative pop night with the trio from Crawley under the canvas.

Also musically speaking the concert was very successful. Starting-point of this tour for The Cure was a better sound in their own tent, in which they had rehearsed extensively, instead of the usual slogging in all kinds of inconvenient little rooms. The repertoire, selected from four LP’s, could be heard superbly and was brought at the right volume (also for the surroundings).

That also applied to the music of “Carnage Visors”, the half an hour film experiment of the group, which served as support act. However, the images were shadowy, most of the visitors hardly knew how to deal with it. Also because the screen was too small and invisible for the vast majority of the standing crowd.

Not being able to sit down and the lack of ventilation in the boiling hot tent during the 2,5 hour lasting performance obviously dropped the enthusiasm for the receipt of the flawless gig. Only on some occasions, such as during the hit “A Forest” of last year, the spark passed on from the stage to the room. Singer-guitarist Robert Smith , bassplayer Simon Gallup and drummer Lol Tolhurst (who travelled back and forth to England to take leave of his deceased mother on one day last week) didn’t seem to care about the lukewarm response.

As the performance progressed, a bigger problem became the lack of sanitary. The toilet vehicle was broken, so all those in need were obliged to hold themselves or to seek sanctuary in the bushes. The rain during the day already had got the heavy trucks into trouble on the lawn. The downpour of yesterday morning meant even more struggle to get the rolling stock back on the road. There were no further incidents during the concert evening itself.

Robert dedicated Boys Don’t Cry to ‘Alison’. Rotterdam is one of the two shows (Leeuwarden being the other) of which the grand finale of the concert has been captured on tape: the improvisation song known as Forever , which originated from the track Three off the Seventeen Seconds album. In Rotterdam it turned out into an aggressive and chaotic 11 minutes wall of noise, with Robert desperately screaming that ‘the sky goes black’…

28 June 1981 – Den Haag, Malieveld

DenHaagticket2

As far as I know, there is not much audio or visual material preserved from this particular gig, except for this worn ticket. The concert tickets for the Dutch leg of the Picture Tour all had the same layout in Cure Circus style, but with different colours for each city.

Obviously that night it must have been raining heavily as well, since Lol told Oor-reporter Paul Evers that drops were falling from the roof of the tent onto his cymbals.

According to the same Oor article, it was in Den Haag that the crew lost the keys to a bus and a caravan, forcing them to leave these vehicles behind.

29 June 1981 – Leeuwarden, Bodeterrein aan de Heliconweg (opposite the former Frieslandhal)

From The Hague the Cure convoy drove via the Afsluitdijk to the North-East of the Netherlands for the last two shows of the Circus Tour. On the Afsluitdijk, which is basically a dike between two (inland) seas, it can be quite windy and the Cure-logo was blown off a truck.

Afsluitdijk

That night Robert apparently was annoyed by some people in the audience. He told Oor: ‘After the third song a couple at the front stood there screaming all the time “I hate rock ‘n’ roll, I hate rock ‘n’ roll!” and I thought: for God’s sake, how can you call The Drowning Man rock ‘n’ roll, without being a reactionary? I got very angry and told them to shut up, instead of ignoring them, what I usually do. During Three , the last song of the encores, I put down my guitar and turned up all the effects. Just when I was about to jump in the room, they were gone… I got really angry you know, because you definitely cannot say from us that we’re rock ‘n’ roll (…)’.

In retrospect, I guess it may be possible that the couple was just referring to Robert’s own joke at the Countdown Live festival, the year before in Amsterdam on 17 October 1980. The band arrived late that night and had to soundcheck in front of the audience. Robert said that because it’s nice for everything to have name, he called the soundcheck I Hate Rock ‘n’ Roll (that show was broadcasted on Dutch radio and part of it on TV).

30 June 1981 – Groningen, Stadspark

Originally the final date of the Circus Tour was planned to take place on the corner of the Korreweg and Bloemsingel. But the municipality of Groningen decided last minute to allocate the Stadspark for the show, more far away from the city centre. They expected there to be less excessive noise. There was some delay in the planning, because the truck carrying the tent didn’t fit under a little bridge when it entered the Stadspark.

Cover81

Paul Evers wrote in Oor that, in accordance with tradition at the end of a tour, the crew played a couple of tricks on the band. At the start of A Forest , a tape would play the sound of a tree felling and a jacketed waiter would come to provide the band with wine. In addition, they would throw mackerel, fishes on sticks and attached to ropes would be pulled through the group and beer would be sprayed from aerosols. For the first time, Paul Evers wrote, he saw Robert Smith laughing on stage.

Thus ended the successful and legendary Circus Tour. The day after Groningen, The Cure probably went back to England. But only a couple of days later, on 4 and 5 July 1981, they were on the continent again, playing the Torhout – Werchter Festival in Belgium.

You can read a full English translation of the very nice Oor article about the Circus Tour on Pictures of You .

I’m still looking for an article entitled ‘Cure kampeert’, which should be a review of the Amsterdam June 21 st show. I don’t know in which magazine or newspaper it was published, but if you have it I would greatly appreciate a scan! 🙂

Many thanks to Ruud.

The Cure announces 30-date “Shows of a Lost World” North American tour

The Cure this morning announced its first North American tour in seven years, with plans to bring its “Shows of a Lost World” trek to the U.S. and Canada for 30 dates beginning in May, with three nights apiece in New York City and Los Angeles.

The tour opens May 10 in New Orleans and runs through July 1 in Miami, with dates in between in Dallas, Seattle, Denver, Chicago, Cleveland, Montreal, Atlanta and more, plus three-night stands at the Hollywood Bowl and Madison Square Garden. The Twilight Sad, once again, will open all shows.

See full dates below.

Tickets will be available through a Ticketmaster Verified Fan Sale beginning Wednesday, March 15, and it will require pre-registration to access. Fans will be able to register for a maximum of five different shows, and registration closes at 10 a.m. Pacific Monday, March 13. Head over here for details and to register.

In an email to fans, bandleader Robert Smith — in his trademark all-caps — makes this promise:

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

The Cure’s touring lineup had been stable for more than a decade, with Smith joined by his longest-serving bandmate, bassist Simon Gallup, as well as drummer Jason Cooper, keyboardist Roger O’Donnell and guitarist Reeves Gabrels. Smith surprised fans last fall by bringing back guitarist/keyboardist Perry Bamonte, who played in the band from 1990 to 2005.

Smith has been teasing the completion and release of The Cure’s 14th studio album Songs of a Lost World — the group’s first since 2008’s 4.13 Dream — for more than a year, at one point suggesting it would be released before the band embarked on a lengthy European tour last fall .

That didn’t happen, although the group performed a number of new songs live, including “Alone,” “Endsong,” “And Nothing is Forever,” “I Can Never Say Goodbye” and “A Fragile Thing.”

The Cure’s European tour last year marked the group’s first live shows since before the pandemic, when The Cure followed up its Pasadena Daydream festival in Southern California in September 2019 with appearances at the Austin City Limits Festival in Texas and a one-off stadium concert in Mexico City.

The band has not toured the U.S. since 2016.

Here are The Cure’s new dates:

The Cure is hitting the road for a North American trek that includes three dates each at Los Angeles’ Hollywood Bowl and New York’s Madison Square Garden. This will be the first time the band plays any North American shows since its 2019 festival appearances and its first tour in the region since 2016.

Following a slate of 2022 European concerts, the Cure’s “Shows of a Lost World” tour will kick off on May 10 in New Orleans and hit 30 stops across the U.S. and Canada with a closing show on July 1 in Miami. The Cure will be supported by Scottish post-punk band the Twilight Sad at all shows. See the full lineup below.

Popular on Variety

Though the band’s last studio album was 2008’s “4:13 Dream,” frontman Robert Smith has regularly teased a new body of work from the band throughout the past few years. Last year, the band reissued 1992’s “Wish,” and Smith most recently remixed Noel Gallagher’s “Pretty Boy” single.

The Cure have announced a 2023 tour of North America. Find their Shows of a Lost World dates below. The schedule comes with three dates apiece at Los Angeles’ Hollywood Bowl and New York’s Madison Square Garden. Support on all dates comes from their longtime tourmates the Twilight Sad .

In recent years, Robert Smith has been teasing a Cure album, giving regular progress reports. In 2019, after being inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame ( by Trent Reznor ), Smith said , “If I’m optimistic it will be finished before the start of this summer.” The album still hasn’t materialized.

The band’s last studio album was 2008’s 4:13 Dream . In recent years, Smith has collaborated with Gorillaz and remixed Chvrches , Deftones , and, just this week, Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds . Last year, the band reissued 1992’s Wish . See where the Cure landed on Pitchfork’s list of “ The 250 Best Songs of the 1990s .”

The Cure kicked off their first North American tour in seven years with a show at Smoothie King Center in New Orleans on Wednesday.

See the evening’s full 29-song setlist and fan-captured performance footage below.

The Cure's Robert Smith

The Cure have announced that they will be setting off on an expansive tour across North America this summer.

The trek will kick off on May 10 in New Orleans, and continue on through to Houston, Dallas, Austin, Albuquerque, Phoenix and more. It'll also include two three-night runs in Los Angeles and New York City, before coming to an end on July 1 in Miami. 

Tickets will become available via Ticketmaster's verified fan sale program starting on March 15.

In a statement, the band declare that "apart from a few Hollywood Bowl charity seats, there will be no 'platinum' or 'dynamically priced' tickets on this tour."

Last year, The Cure revealed that they had recorded 20 new songs, some of which were destined for release on a new, 67-minute album.

Thirteen new songs were reportedly recorded at Rockfield Studios in Wales back in early 2019, with the remaining songs written on the band's return to the studio later that year.

Yesterday (March 8), Noel Gallagher shared a remix of his song, Pretty Boy by The Cure frontman Robert Smith.

Speaking of the project, Smith offers: “I was surprised and delighted when Noel asked me to remix this gorgeous song, and I had a lot of fun slowing it down and spacing it out.

"Cure drummer Jason Cooper gave me a great vibey drum track to play along with – and the rest just phased into place under the starry sky of my distant moon…”.

Fun facts from our Moscow Metro Tours:

From the very first days of its existence, the Moscow Metro was the object of civil defense, used as a bomb shelter, and designed as a defense for a possible attack on the Soviet Union.

At a depth of 50 to 120 meters lies the second, the coded system of Metro-2 of Moscow subway, which is equipped with everything you need, from food storage to the nuclear button.

According to some sources, the total length of Metro-2 reaches over 150 kilometers.

The Museum was opened on Sportivnaya metro station on November 6, 1967. It features the most interesting models of trains and stations.

Coffee Ring

The first scheme of Moscow Metro looked like a bunch of separate lines. Listen to a myth about Joseph Stalin and the main brown line of Moscow Metro.

Zodiac Metro

According to some astrologers, each of the 12 stops of the Moscow Ring Line corresponds to a particular sign of the zodiac and divides the city into astrological sector.

Astrologers believe that being in a particular zadiac sector of Moscow for a long time, you attract certain energy and events into your life.

Paleontological finds 

Red marble walls of some of the Metro stations hide in themselves petrified inhabitants of ancient seas. Try and find some!
