It's official: Porl (now "Pearl") Thompson won't longer play in The Cure :(
Quotethank you to everyone for all your thoughts and support...
as for all the comments; good and bad!
keep the freedom flag flying ; )
for those who do care.....
i apologise if i upset you with this decision
but i will no longer be playing in this inspirational band, (hence the auction;)
i am working on a lot of new projects..jewellery, music, art and mixed media;
all of which will take time to ferment...
paint still flows and my mind state is better than it has been for long while;
much love ~Pearl
formally porl RIP xxx

The last Cure concert with Porl took place on Sunday April 19, 2009 :(
No big surprise here. I already thought so when he did not perform with the group in 2011. When hearing of the auction, I thought "so he won't return".
"Pearl"? Is he going through another type of "transformation"?
I wonder what does "keep the freedom flag flying" means? Freedom from the Cure? From RS? Just doing his own thing? Hmmm....
So Sad news :( :( :(

Pearl is a female name so yes, probably. Anyway, who cares, as long as he is happy :)
Well, what about Reeve or Perry? The could play. We'll just have to wait until Reading to see what the "now" lineup is going to be

Robert said in a recent interview that only Reeve can replace Porl. ;)
Also, I think we already know the "now" line-up, as it has played some festivals already.
