The Cure Full Concert in Portsmouth - Wish Tour 1992
Ah, The Cure! When they took the stage in Portsmouth on April 30, 1992, they were deep into the "Wish Tour," promoting their iconic album, *Wish*, which had been released just a year earlier. This album, with its shimmering hits like "Friday I’m in Love," marked a pivotal moment in their career, showcasing their evolution from the darker tones of earlier works to a more accessible, yet still hauntingly beautiful sound. The 1992 live performance is a testament to the band's dynamic presence, capturing a moment when they were reaching new heights of popularity while remaining true to their gothic roots. Interestingly, they played around 111 shows on this tour, blending their signature style with the energy of live audiences. This concert, in particular, not only highlighted their musical prowess but also the palpable excitement surrounding their resurgence in the alternative rock scene. What a time to be a fan, right?
