I believe it's only a handful of cities,where The Cure have played once.
Maybe we can put them together in this thread.Of course worldwide.I hope this
will be not too difficult.I'm beginning with:Reims (11.7.1989).Who's next?

I believe it could be more than "a handful"...

Freiburg is what I come up with:

You'll have hours of fun going through this list of concerts/towns from '77 to 2014:

Yes.Somehow I've missed my starting point.The number alone is much
higher than expected (70 towns between 1977 and mid 1980),but is this meaningful
enough? If we put together a small selection of towns,it would make more sense from
today's perspective.At least we have two so far in relative proximity.Thanks. :oops:

Not many who want to participate so far. I come up with what dsanchez should've come up with. ;)

Orange:

With the help of the search function at that website (above), I found two more:
Leysin (July 6th 1990)
Bern (Gurten Festival, July 14th 1995)

The search function is great! To remain in the French countryside:
Nancy (13.10.1981)  :)

There are loads - I reckon you will end up close to 40-50 unique town/cities. However if you are determined and to join in the fun I will give you my home town - Chester. They played a place called Smarties which not surprisingly isn't there anymore!
