Last night The Cure began their trio of Christmas shows with And Also the Trees at London’s Eventim Apollo.  As expected, The Cure delivered an unbelievable 40-song set that included a full performance of 1984′s The Top (not from start to finish) the live debut of a rare Head On the Door-era B-side “A Man Inside my Mouth” (Hey, don’t get any ideas about that title—pervert!) and the dusting off of songs that had not been played live in decades.

The-Cure-Night-1

Among the setlist highlights: besides that full performance of The Top, was the first live performance of The Top’s “Wailing Wall” and “The Empty World” in 30 years; the return of “Piggy in the Mirror” for the first time since 1997; and the first performances of Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me’s “Like Cockatoos” and “Hey You!” in a decade.

Below, check out the full setlist from last night’s show
