The Cure play epic London gig

The Cure played an epic 45 song set on Friday night at Royal Albert Hall in London as part of the Teenage Cancer Trust series of shows.

The show lasted a total of 3-1/2 hours and included the standard live songs along with a number of rarities rarely performed live, including the first ever performance of 2 Late from the band's album, a song from the era of their album Disintegration.
