Random News

Wow! He looks good. Yesterday I left for Zaraysk, came back home late at night, checked Placebo sites for 2 minutes and was shocked with that facebook page, Steve's appearance was unexpected. But you think it's really Steve? Though I don't see anything special there, on facebook, no news or details, only list of friends. Shall I register to see the whole page?

Some info about the new Placebo single:

Placebo announced that they will be releasing their newest single "The Never-Ending Why" from their latest album Battle For The Sun. The single will be available on a 7" vinyl with an exlusive b-side. It will also be released as a download bundle that will have the 7" tracks as well as a remix. The single is set to be released on September 7.

So we have a new b-side if the info is reliable

Good news about the single, hmm the Steve news, it could be real or a wind up I don't know. Did anybody notice the writing on the newspaper, (it's a UK one, The Daily Telegraph, more high brow daily, and it was yesterdays I saw it, ) is back to front, is he holding it up to a mirror. I might join facebook out of curiosity, I'd like to know how he's feeling right now, and perhaps his side of the story.

Yes, he took this photo with a new newspaper to prove that it's him. But still some people don't believe. Though someone said on LJ that it probably was taken with a webcam because webcams by default take pics in mirror view, don't know how to explain properly

There are 2 more pics on his facebook. This one and also another in Warhol's style But there are not many details there.

Think I'll check this out awhile before I make up my mind.

oh my god i'm super sad...but he looks unexpectedly good, good for him. wish him the best.

I may purchase his work, seriously.

I feel sorry for him, whatever happened it must feel terrible for him to see something he was part of for so long carry on without him, people he was close to now no longer friends, and what's been said about him,poor guy .
I'll certainly give his work a listen .

Steve posted a video on facebook So it's really him.

Summer Sonic Osaca：Brian Molko collapsed on stage, causing show stopped; Today he's okay and is leaving for UK

Placebo was supposed to give a show at 15:05 pm in Osaka Japan. After playing the intro-song 'Kitty Litter', frontman Brian Molko suddenly collapsed on stage, causing the show stopped. Stefan was apparently concerned and was a bit nervous about what happened. Brian was taken off stage by the staff.

Then due to 'Brian's strong headache', the show could not be restarted. Steve was on stage to apologize and comfort the fans.

Information from Solitary Records

Placebo gig in Summer Sonic Osaka was cancelled due to Brian's health condition. The official site will keep the fans up with information and updating announcement from the band as soon as possible. Touring for several months, especially the tight schedule is responsible for his feeling sick. Thanks to the fast medical aid， Brian is all right when he's leaving for UK.

The band feels sorry for what happened in Osaka, 'Once Brian's health condition back to normal, we are sure to be here again.' Said Stefan and Steve.

Thanks for this info, Agina. I read on the Russian forum that Brian had fainted at a concert in Japan and I felt totally shocked. I was afraid it was a symptom of some awful disease. Good to know some official info right now though still we don't know why it happened. I hope he will be ok

i feel sry for him. he's not that young at all, he should have known better...he wont be able to cope with that many gigs. i'm sad.

all he need is to get enuf rest...

Oh, I'm still afraid that it can be a symptom of some disease. But let's hope it's only because of tiredness. And it's very nice of Steve to stay on stage to apologize and comfort people. When in 2007 in Portugal they left the stage without saying a word, the fans were in panic, some cried. He is nice and kind, with every little fact about him I learn, I like him more and more.

Btw, happy birthday, dear

I think he's forgetting he's not as young as he was and can't keep up with the kid !!!! He also has B12 injection, which means he has a condition where he tires easily ( my mother does also ), he's been seriously overdoing it, still scared it's something bad though !

On a happier note, a belated happy birthday Angina !

Thank you girls...

what's B12 injection? like Botox? is that what they had in the summer vedio? ohhhhhh

just stop drinking redbull and have a slightly loose schedule...get well B!

You're welcome

i've already watched the vid...bitter...it made me feel gutted.

Get well B...*tears* loose ur schedule and get more rest!

Awful, watching that, he seemed to lie there for so long, he was still unconscious when they carried him off, he seemed so tiny too.
He said years ago he needed B12 injections, my mum has to have them it's a kind of defiecency, but you still get tired easily even with them, so he won't have aas much energy as other people. Was that Fiona walking with as he was carried away, I think Stef and steve didn't know what to do .

So terrible.

Hugs, to you Angina, lovely photos, lets hope he's better soon, poor baby .

=D yeah, get well B...i decide to repeat this phrase in my daily tweet...

I was in other country when I read on tv news about Brian. Sad. And that video. I'm happy he's better now.

And sorry for delay, happy birthday Agina.
