This comes after Cave promised fans that the shows were set to be “fucking mind-blowing”, as he contemplated life in lockdown.
“Together we have stepped into history and are now living inside an event unprecedented in our lifetime,” he wrote. “Every day the news provides us with dizzying information that a few weeks before would have been unthinkable.”
He added: “Slowly, we all are coming around to the realisation that we will need to lead very different lives for a while — short term, long term, who knows?”
Cave recently published Stranger Than Kindness – a collection of images, words and lyrics from throughout his career.
