I haven't listened to much of Placebo, but after hearing the song "Pure Mourning" it totally changed my musical style. This song started a revalation.

Here's a fun fact for you Placebo fans.

The opening act in Europe for Placebo is....KOUFAX!!!

Yet another reason people should listen to these guys!

Koufax didn't open for Placebo when I saw them a couple of months ago. It was the Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster who were pants :(

I thought pants was a good thing. Oh god i'm confused now.

I've only heard Pure Morning by them but I must say that song was stuck in my head for about 3 or 4 years, and I spent that whole time trying to remember what the damn thing was called (this was before I really knew much about the internet). I still remember the moment it came to me, in the car, on the way to South Carolina.
Such a weird episode of my life.

Ok that's my fucked up Placebo story, anybody else?

Pants themselves are a good thing. But if you say something's pants then that means its not very good - I have no idea why.

there is absolutely nothing wrong with a band having 3 members
