The band offered the following comment about the upcoming online tour:\u00a0We were very disappointed that we couldn’t play live for you this summer, but even so we wanted to go on tour. To replace us playing\u00a0in person, we dug out some videos from the archives and are hosting our own \u2019summer tour.’ These are the \u2018Lost Tapes\u2019, a series of\u00a0festival concerts spanning 24 years, some never seen before. Each will premiere on YouTube so subscribe, set reminders and whatever\u00a0else you need to prepare. We\u2019ll see you there!!<\/em><\/p>\n

Lotsa love,
\nxx Placebo<\/p>\n
