“I was hired to do the publicity photographs to support the Cure’s album, Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me. I brought lights backstage and set them up during The Kissing Tour.” — Mark “WEISSGUY” Weiss
The Cure backstage in 1987, lights set up mid-tour, and you can feel the mood before the show starts. Print showed up crisp, and those Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me-era details are all still there.
The backstage lighting setup really shows in this print — you can see the shadows fall naturally across his face instead of looking like a studio shot. Bought it for my office wall and the paper quality holds up close. Feels like a real moment from the Kissing Tour, not a posed promo pic.
