The Cure played AsiaWorld-Expo in Hong Kong tonight. The show started at around 20:15 and ended at 23:05, running about three hours long. The band played many classics including "In Between Days", "Just Like Heaven", "Lullaby", "Never Enough", "Friday I'm In Love", "Wrong Number" and more.

The band ended the main set 2 and a half hour into the show, and came back 5 minutes later for the first encore. After the first encore, the band returned to the stage and played the second encore and ended the show with "Boys Don't Cry". Frontman Robert Smith said after the song, "That's it! Thank you!"
