Placebo in Mexico


Placebo in Mexico



by Placebo Fans Latinoรกmerica with added information by Placebo Anyway (in bold type).

After a long flight Placebo finally arrived at Mexico.

The band members didn’t take the same flight, so Brian Molko and Stefan Olsdal arrived at 27th of March at 6.30 pm and the rest of the band arrived the next day and had also some passport control problems.
A signing took place at 28th of March at the Galerรญas Monterrey organized by Mixup shop in collaboration with Universal recordings.



They expected 800 fans, but only 200 showed up at 14.00h. The principal reason for being there only 200 fans, was a confusion of the organizer, announicing the wrong place. 
Many many fans went to the wrong center and arrived to late to Galerรญa Monterrey.

In less than a half hour the signing ended and was very hardly criticized by several press publications. Speaking about how cold and unfriendly Brian and Stef treated their fans. Saying that only Steve was friendly and smiling all the time.
They also wrote, it was not allowed to hug them, not even touch them or speak to them. The press said that these facts caused big frustration between the fans.

Security staff was very rude shouting and giving orders in a very despicable manner..

So the fans ended up very very sad by this behavior.


The press also considered annoying the fact they wore sunnglasses all the time.
Speaking with soulmates who were at the signing we can be sure that press once again can be very bad, awful ugly with their writing.
Bad informed and spreading lies, we have these results.


One of our soul mates told us that Brian and also Stef were always smiling and very friendly.
So, we can understand the reaction of the band not being not so happy  when they found 200 instead of 800 fans at the signing, but they did a great job and a lovely concert at night in Monterrey, Mexico.


During the concert, when they played “Meds”  (as we’ve been told) they had some problems because Steve got his hand hurt. After a  little break they went on.  




As Placebo Fans Latinoรกmerica confirmed he is well now and the shows can go on in Mexico D.F. tonight.
