For me personal I can go without the so-called "Greatest Hits" and songs from "Disintegration".
They had been played too often and I can't hearing it anymore.SORRY.
this getting a bit off topic. I think this one http://curefans.com/albums-and-songs/songs-you-wish-the-cure-would-not-play-too-often-at-gigs/ is better to discuss what songs we wouldn't like to hear at the concerts. the current topic is about The Cure's setlist length.

All right.The selection of songs is only one point and the majority of the audience
favour long shows,but I think the whole thing is getting out of hand a bit.The number
of encores should not exceed one third of the main program.This seems to me important,
regardless of the number of songs.

The Cure are actually a pretty genuine band, they don't play live UK gigs all that often, but when they do they certainly put on a show for us adoring fans.

ps more UK gigs please!!
