Faith No More

[Mike Patton]

Good stuff.

I like your views and your avatar.

[t8yman]

why thank you.

when I said I cant see them touring it I meant I could see them doing a few big festies on each continent and then calling it a day. they remained very big in germany right up to their demise, so rock am ring/im park might be on the cards?

[Mike Patton]

You'd be correct on the Germany point. Rock AM Ring would certainly welcome them.

I suspect Reading would get them if they play over here though.

There'd be no new material, no, just a short-lived tour I'd imagine.

Well one of Reading/Download/Knebworth Will get either AC/DC or FNM, i doubt that one festival will get both. From what i've heard Metallica will be headlining the Knebworth thing so that leaves one each to Reading and Download. My money is still on AC/DC for Reading despite what Neil says.

Thats _IF_ a FNM reunion is on the cards, i'd have thought we'd have heard more about it by now, like with Rage.

That said i'd love to see them at Download.

[Mike Patton]

What suggests to me that a Faith No More reunion is on is that they are getting more media exposure (songs are on tv much more atm), just like AC/DC before their reunion was confirmed, they have not denied the speculation and one website claims that Coachella have them signed and sealed.

Or am I just being hopeful..?

[Sparticus]

probably just a little

for anyone just a bit curious about who they are though, get yourself to zavvi! picked up a double cd containing the real thing and angel dust today for the bargain price of £3.

[Salt_On_Everything]

serious?! man, its a f**king shame that zavvi in liverpool has shut down already... but there is another zavvi in town, if thats still open i may have to try and find that!

[Sparticus]

just put the real thing on, f**king love from out of nowhere seems to be a common trend, only reason i got a best of cd of theirs was because it was £2 and i fancied a punt, even though it was lacking the easy cover.

I know the one's in manc are still open (arndale and trafford centre), waiting till the sale goes to over 50% before i lose all respect and buy guitar hero lol, currently at 25% off everything.

[Sparticus]

looks like it's not happening, and mike patton is performing with rahzel instead at coachella.

I just want to know one way or the other!!

I think he'll be performing with Rahzel at Reading this year as well...

from nme.com

Faith No More are set to reform and play a European tour this year.

The reformation of the band, led by Mike Patton, was confirmed by their publicist, reports Idolator.com.

It is reported that the band, who initially split in 1998 with the band members pursuing other musical outlets, will play a European tour this year - with summer festival dates likely.

It is thought that guitarist Jim Martin, who left the band in 1993, will not be part of the reunion.

I was happier on my wedding day, but that's about it.

I still think that Download haven't got them, though. :-(

My gut feeling is telling me theyr the 3rd headliner to be announced......and my gut feeling has never once let me down in my 25years This is why download have delayed and are now building up the final headliner

[hardy]

well limp bizkit and zz top av bin rumoured bout headlining the 2nd stage and faith no more really arnt tht big

wats up with bands tht split thn get bk together a few years later and then they r massive they wouldnt av headlined b4 they split and download cud do so much better

[darrenbha]

My thoughts really Hardy, just can't imagine them headlining

[r0w]

faith no more really arnt tht big

[hardy]

U really wernt joking were u? They are one of the most legendary bands from the 80s/90s, have had mainstream success, and have headlined European Festivals in the past. I know about 10 people who wudnt normally go to festivals who would folk out for a 3day pass just for Faith No More.

[r0w]

yeh '10 people' tens of thousands people go to download

hmm they would seem very likely to be the Friday headliner now, I'd rather have Rammstein myself

Actually they could be Sunday headliner at IOW as well/instead

i'm pretty sure i read that IOW's joint saturday headliners are Stereophonics and Razorlight... as a result i can't really see FNM being there!
