Placebo have confirmed a world tour that kicks off in October, marking the 20th anniversary of their self-titled debut album.
The first leg begins in Europe on October 13 and ends with nine British Isles dates in December.
And frontman Brian Molko reports the set will include tracks he’d previously vowed never to perform again.
Molko says: “I think it’s time we 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. This tour is very much for the fans and a chance for us to revisit a lot of our early material.
“If you want to see us play songs like Pure Morning and Nancy Boy – which we haven’t played in almost 10 years and may not play again – you’d better come along to these shows!”
Tickets go on sale via Ticketmaster.co.uk at 9am on March 18 (Friday) with a fan pre-sale commencing 48 hours earlier.
