Placebo will be heading out on a world tour including Budapest in October to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the release of their platinum-selling debut album “Placebo”.
The first leg of the “20 Years of Placebo” tour begins in Denmark on October 13 and runs through to Wembley Arena in London on December 16. Dates for 2017 will be revealed later.
The band promises a set list spanning their whole back catalogue. Singer Brian Molko said: “Let’s just say there will be songs in the set that I’ve sworn never to play again. I think it’s time that we purposefully acknowledged what a lot of Placebo fans really want to hear.
“They’ve been very patient with us since we rarely play our most commercially successful material. A 20-year anniversary tour seems like the right time to do so. That’s our intention.
“This tour is very much for the fans and a chance for us to revisit a lot of our early material. So, if you want to see us play songs like ‘Pure Morning’ and ‘Nancy Boy’, which we haven’t played in almost ten years and may not play again, then you’d better come along to these shows. We’ll have some surprises in there too.”
Tickets for the show at Papp László Budapest Sports Arena on November 11 are available via www.livenation.hu. Three different seating and normal standing tickets are available.
