Please take extreme care on emails from administration @ petshopboys-forum .com !!!!!!!!!!!
In the last days I recognise some emails about Tickets for PSB@ROH which I THINK could be a money trap. After we have to hold this email open for user requests and alerts via the contact link (at the...
I know yesterday (13th March) was the first time a new PSB track had been played in ages, but (as per the long standing forum rules) in future all public requests for copies of any new track, PSB or otherwise, will be deleted and/or threads containing requests closed. We will officially...

Thank you for the link leesmapman. I was already aware of them and found the last one does not include the first song they played (the Blur song Girls and Boys (PSB Remix)). For some reason it has been omitted from the youtube recording hence why I asked if anyone has their own recording.
There's a show on the E! channel that satirizes strange clips from the past week's TV shows called The Soup. Occasionally, they also do little sketches based on other Pop culture releated news.

To the heads that are fortunate enough to be going to the 1. May Potemkin concert, how are you going to present yourselves?
Mundane everyday clothes, subtle petheads or fully fledged?
I'm planning of wearing the 'Nightlife' blue PSB fleece. Maybe a hat like Neil's wearing in I'm with stupid.

I'll be there with the Party Animal as he has been to Newcastle a few times on long weekenders before...
According to the above site (which is pretty reliable normally) I'm with stupid has moved from a release date of May 8th to May 22nd, the same day as Fundamental.
It's probably a mistake but then again, it wouldn't exactly be the first time things have been delayed....

makes sense as I can't imagine all of those mixes being download only.

is that a cover version though, although they obviously would need boys permission to sample lyrics in part or use with completely new music, cover versions per se though don't require permission
Whilst watching the Live 8 videos a few thoughts struck me... why are the PSB's still around ? Neil isn't the greatest singer (during New York city boy he was absolutely awfully flat.. it was so painful it hurts to listen to it)... Chris isn't the best on the keyboards .... they don't have the looks.. the sex...
Last post
No, they're not a trio, Pete Gleadall is Pet Shop Boys.
Possibilities for the new songs of "Fundamental", who knows?. Anyway, it's the first part of several documentaries about him and I suppose some of the songs of "Fundamental" will sound in the last part.
Last post
I've downloaded the RealAudio feed directly from the BBC website if anyone wants this documentary. It's 14MB, so I guess I'll need to upload it to Rapidshare or something.
Does anyone have an idea in wich venue the Pet Shop Boys should play when they're performing in London? Wembley Arena, Earls Court, or smaller venues as Shepards Bush Empire, Hammersmiith Apollo, Brixton Academy...? Any toughts?
Last post
Back to the Savoy Theatre, as I think this venue will be too small for the crowd. You have to know, it's already 4 years ago Neil & Chris went on tour, so, the demand for tickets will probably very high. Everyone wants to see them back I think!
- Pet Shop Boys, record of the week.
- Pet Shop Boys get airplay on the A-list
- Pet Shop Boys competition (quiz about PSB)
- Pet Shop Boys exclusive concert (with other artists and with the BBC orchestra)
- Aditional documentaries about Trevor Horn and Anne Dudley (related with PSB)
Really good...
Last post
I have a feeling Fundamental could be much more of a hit than us (usually pessimistic) fans think.
See link for Fundamental sales on Amazon:
It's currently Number 15, a month before release. That's really good i think.
That's because it's only £8.99 for the special edition on Amazon. :wink:
wouldn't you agree that skinner's rap is very reminiscent of neil's? i can't quite pin down neil's style. i'd say it's rap but not hip hop rap. how would you describe it? and let'S not forget that "west end girls" was the first #1 rap song in the US...
But why in hell they don't say things like that about George Michael, for example?. Like: "Wham is the sound a hamster does when you smash it inside George Michael's ****". Or something. Bah.
My thoughts exactly.
They cant think up of better questions, so they go down the "controversial" route...

Do they know why ?
No, he just told me that the boys was not on the show. Sorry.
Once again, i think the boys are not really famous here...
It is not only "Sold out" ( but also I need to be citizen of Sweden to purchase? Anybody can help me? Are there any ticket brokers you know of?
Thanks for your help.

You have to call the ticnet call center. If someone cancels their tickets they might have tickets left. Before you call you might check on ticnet´s website if there are tickets left.
The phone number: +46771707070.
They´re very nice there. I had to call there too. Hope you can join us.
Sorry if this was already mentioned, but on the popjustice.com site, in the annoucement about the I'm with stupid video being availbale on-line, they have THREE different "versions" - Broadband, Narrowband, Amazingband.
Guess what... :wink: :D

Yeah, I noticed this too. I thought ... 'AmazingBand' : what is that?! I expected a super-broadband version or something hehehe.... great humor he has Mr. Popjustice.

The unbelievable has happened : just a few minutes ago the dutch TV program 'RTL Boulevard' had a short item on the PSB.
Man, they are promoting this album well, it seems. Unfortunately, the PSB got ridiculed again (like it happens almost everytime when they are talked about on dutch radio/tv)...
I must say, I admire the local promoters in Skien. It takes balls to cash up something between 1 and 2 million NOK and expecting 10 000 people to turn up.

Well Potemkin reached what ? I guess I heard it was 96 or something like that. I do get your point but I'm still not quite convinced :wink: Btw does anyone have chart figures for the last Erasure albums as far as the UK is concerned ?

Personally, I can't stand BMW's and thought Chris would have had more taste!

The Pete I saw in the car was Andreas not Gleadall... They drove the Batmobile up to the stage door of the NEC and got out and had a chat with the fans.

This song was performed "live" in the studio, with Chris playing piano and Neil singing, seated on a stool, amidst dimmed lighting.
