In 1994, band member Andy Fletcher had to leave the tour due to illness. Bamonte replaced him for the second leg of the 1994 Summer Tour, as well as six shows in South America.

The Cure

After having previously toured with the Cure in the mid-1980s, Bamonte began working with the band again in 1995 alongside his older brother Perry, the band's lead guitarist at the time. Bamonte was a project coordinator on Bloodflowers, Join the Dots, and a number of remastered album reissues.
