placebo?

[Loz3005]

I've just upset my little sis (who I am going to glastonbury with for the first time) by telling her placebo will be playing Rockness. She now wants to go Rockness instead!!!!! What are the chances of placebo playing Glastonbury??

there is a slim/miniscule chance, would like it though

really? seen them 2x live + recorded gig (fair enough there he will put it on there, if that is the case)

but as a whole they have had great crowd interaction and in no way acted like a stropy mare

well if they do i shall be organising a mass phone out recording video during 'pure morning' moment - that will get the arsehole off stge.

some great tunes but the way he treats his audience he deserves to play V, not the greatest festival on the planet

[Tugger2k]

I saw them live once and he was fine. How does he treat the audience?

Pathetic that some of you are just turning this in to a hate thread against placebo, just because at one gig he flipped out for a few minutes.

Majority of rock band leadman have at some time gone off at a fan or two. It happens!

Did you read the rest of that review, the person writing remarks on one negative point and then goes on to say how quality the gig was and that they are one of the best live acts around.

1 Gig did you say.............

Its not his 1st, and it wont be his last, a very simple search on google will turn up 10's of times he's flipped his lid, the man's lucky to still have a career and then goes and treats the people that have given him that career like their the lucky ones.

an overated, overblown dickhead, that somehow managed to write 2 or 3 decent tunes, then spent the last ten years with his head firmly planted in his rectum

and no, the majority rock band lead men dont stop playing in the middle of a fecking gig, managing to piss off the entire audience.

he's a twunt, and thats that.

having said all that, if you could guarantee that he'd put on a show without all the juvenile histrionics, id go see em again, but seeing as no one can............

Few good songs but not that great live. Suppose if you got the chance to see them in a small venue it might be okay.

[Tugger2k]

Fair enough.

Number one, i've never seen them live.

Number two, I had no idea that he'd flipped out on numerous occasions.

I think they've made a few quality albums and would like to see them live once just to get my own opinion.

negative propaganda, don't be put off - if you like their music you'll think they're a good live act, simple as. positive propaganda - check out the 'soulmates never die' live concert on youtube, would be a good addition imo

[starfruit]

I'm suprised by all the negativity, I've seen them well over ten times and they've always been good, I've never witnessed a problem. I've known him to say things about people throwing stuff at the stage, but I'd agree with him there.

Their schedule from end May to early July is getting full with festival dates, with only one weekend completely free...Glastonbury weekend, and no other English appearances yet announced, it looks quite promising. Although I'd rather see them at Sonisphere or Reading, as whenever a band I love plays Glastonbury the crowd always seem fairly unexcited and I get frustrated that people are standing around seemingly uninterested. Watch the BBC footage of Raconteurs last year...everyone says it was a great gig, and yet the crowd are just stood still looking miserable. When I saw Placebo at Glastonbury in 1998 it was ruined by people around me right down the front drunkenly talking/shouting through the quiet songs, having dumb converations with their friends waiting for the next hit, which ruined the mood.

ive seen placebo many times over the last 10 years and they have been great every time

very tight band

they never seem to play much in the UK...well not in the last 5 years

so ive never seen them here

but they would be great at glasto
