I had the chance to catch up with Placebo on the current US tour out at Marquee Theatre. What an amazing show. I can honestly say Iâve never heard of them until this show but I am glad I had the chance to catch it.
As the stage beams with a tinted blue light, and the warped introductory sounds of âForever Chemicals,â play, and Molko makes his way onto stage. A rapid segue into recent single âBeautiful Jamesâ spurs the crowd into an early singalong, though itâs short-lived. Indeed, the backbone of tonightâs set is Never Let Me Go in almost its entirety, as well as a handful of deeper cuts from across the bandâs career. Everyone in the top deck is swaying in their seats as Placebo exude emasculate energy across the venue. All and all it was an amazing night filled with great energy, a great set list and even better light show.
Placebo also brought Poppy Jean Crawford on this current run in which you can find photos from both bands below.
