Hiya, all. I'm 24 and a pretty recent Placebo fan, so I guess you could say I'm late to the game. I have a few of my favorite pics to post, some Brian quotes, and a couple of questions. I'm going to go in exact reverse with that list, and do the questions first, lol.

Does anyone know when the last time was that Placebo toured? Does anyone know when the NEXT time Placebo's touring will be? And, does anyone know if there's a new album in the works? Thanks in advance.

Now....Quotes, from WikiQuote. He's ever so clever.

Brian on Lust:
"I’m very lustful. I’m in this fortunate, or unfortunate, position being bisexual in that I have twice as many people to lust over. So it can get hard on tour. I don't think lust is a sin - people should have sex as much and in as many situations as possible. Then they'd be less uptight."

On Religion:
"I had quite a religious upbringing. I gave my life over to Christ at 11. I took it back when I was about 14."

Brian on Madness:
"We’re just trying to find meaning within all the madness. And if you find yourself saying 'you know, if I met myself last night, I would've thought I was an asshole,' that's one hell of a severe warning sign that you've gone too far with the madness."

Brian on his Appearance:
"I like the fact that people either think I’m incredibly gorgeous or fucking ugly."

Brian on the Rockstar Life:
"When every day became a hangover. And when you look at yourself in the mirror and go 'I don't like how you're coming across to people.' and when every day just started to feel the same. After the 50th shag, it doesn't mean so much anymore."

Brian on the Afterlife:
"I’d be interested in finding out if there is a light you walk into, and if you do meet people from your life and walk hand in hand with Jesus. I would hate for my death to be tragic: I’d like to be old when it happens. But hopefully a young death is unlikely."

Brian on what he'd do if he was a woman for a day:
"Maybe invest in some exotic extravagant and battery operated toys."

Brian on the strangest gift ever given him by a fan:
"I was given a photograph of this girl with a black eye with ‘Kill/Fuck/Die’ written on it, which I carry with me everywhere, because it’s the most intense thing I’ve been given."

Brian on Glamour:
"There's a difference between 'glamour' and 'glam rock'. Glam rock, to me, is a bunch of straight, hairy, football-liking lager lads dressed up in mother's castoffs. And glamour is a certain sophistication, a certain other-worldliness, a certain unattainableness, which I think we certainly calculate. We believe that a band should be slightly larger than life-you should be transported to an alternate reality. I'm giving you some really good answers here, I'm very proud of myself."

On who he would play Russian Roulette with:
"Eminem for starters. Then Fred Durst, from Limp Bizkit. Let's throw Britney in there. Then Marilyn Manson - just because he's sick enough to enjoy it. And the last one? Tony Blair. He's such a great disappointment - and he plays roulette with other people's lives all the time. It'd be good to see him sweat for a change."

On Airport Security:
"They can rub me up the wrong way for hours on end, but they won't find anything. Then when I'm on my way out, I'll tell them, 'Next time you want to stick your finger up a boy's ass, just give me a call.'"

On 'Joke of the Year':
"I'm really bad with jokes. I would have to say Limp Bizkit."

On the public perception of the band:
"I think that most people expect us to be lying in the gutter with needles hanging out of our arms, quoting Oscar Wilde to the stars. But that hasn't happened in years."

On fucking with people:
"I just enjoy fucking with people's heads. For the first half of our gigs, there's normally some guy convinced I'm a girl, and a pretty cute one at that. As the gig continues, it begins to dawn on him that I'm a bloke, and suddenly he has to ask himself some serious questions. Ha ha!"

On his Sexuality:
"My sexuality is very fluid but it's very real. I have had confusing and contradicting emotions since I have awakened sexually, and it's something that I have come to terns with and that I have manage to live with in a very positive way. I have never been a homophobic person and one of the reasons I stopped going to church, because my mother used to take me to church a lot, was because of the church's attitude to homosexuality."

On Scars:
"There's one on my wrist where I put my arm through a window trying to open it; the glass missed Mr Vein by a millimetre. It healed in the shape of a Nike Swoosh. They can't buy advertising like that."

Fancy That:
"I'm continually surprised by the amount of people I wind up. For many guys, I'm the faggot their girlfriend fancies."

On Losing His Virginity:
"It was quite special, actually. I was 14, she was French, and my first girlfriend. It happened in my room and we lost our virginities together. I convinced my mother that I'd had a nosebleed on the duvet but she said, 'You must have been lying in a strange position.'"


And, as promised:
