I hope not. They are an appalling live band. And that's for an abused fan who has seen them 8 times alwasy thinking the last time was an aberation. Alas, I eventually had to concede it was the norm

[glastofun]

Their schedule doesn't support the possibility that they'll be there...

their complete lack of professionalism, skill & talent

[mike99]

they might want to cramb as much as they can in most bands do?

[somecoolusername]

They might want to, but they don't curate the line-up, thankfully.

I was a bit of a distant Placebo fan when I was about 13, and by fan I mean I tolerated them, but having gone back to it some of their songs are pretty damned fiiiiiine.

I *might* see them at Reading to put that part of my life to bed once and for all.......

tickets for the 3 intimate gigs in London, Bournemouth and Sheffield are on presale now if anyone wants them

If Placebo played I'd certainly watch them over Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen or Blur.

TAKE THAT HATERS!

Going to see these at Leeds, not at all comforted by all of the negative comments about them live though D: Are they really that bad?

Don't reckon there's any chance of them playing Glasto to be honest, anyway.
