Brand new for Bestival 2011, we're super excited to present our first ever Bestival art poster competition winners, which we'll be previewing right here on the blog in the lead up to this year's festie. 
L'ANGLETERRE DES FESTIVALS. Jusqu'à septembre, les festivals poussent tels des champignons en Albion ! Avec des programmations ridiculous comme on dit de l'autre côté de la Manche pour parler d'un truc génial. 
20 pairs to be won...
Cela fait déjà plus d’un mois que nous savons que The Cure participera au Bestival 2011 sur l’Île de Wight en septembre.
Robert has posted this comment at the official site:
"creeeeeak... AS OF DECEMBER 3RD 2010, THIS IS THE ONLY CURE PERFORMANCE OF ANY DESCRIPTION BOOKED FOR 2011... WE WILL NOT BE PLAYING ANY OTHER EUROPEAN FESTIVALS, AND UNLESS SOMETHING REMARKABLE HAPPENS, WE WILL NOT BE PLAYING ANY OTHER EUROPEAN SHOWS! THIS IS AS CLEAR AND AS DEFINITE AS WE CAN BE... SO IF YOU WANT TO EXPERIENCE 120+ MINUTES OF THE CURE NEXT YEAR (AS WELL AS A DAZZLING PANOPLY OF OTHER GREAT ACTS) WE WOULD STRONGLY SUGGEST YOU GO TO BESTIVAL! (HOWEVER, IF YOU LIVE IN SOUTH AMERICA, YOU MIGHT CONSIDER WAITING A WHILE BEFORE BOOKING YOUR TICKET... YOU NEVER KNOW... ) ONWARDS! RSX" Posted by CURE:ROBERT on 12/2/2010 11:25 PM (GMT-08:00)
