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.
What must the wee Mexican have thought when Neil Tennant strolls over and takes a pic of the fake goods he's selling?? :D

They probably have no idea what PSB look like- they're just looking to make some dinero off some desperate fans...

Well, I just finished A Life in Pop and it was superb. However, there are a significant amount of "live" video clips with plenty of lip-synching--lord, especially all of those "Brits" and "Top of the Pops" performances!
The 1988 Brits with Dusty is particularly embarrassing--she looks completely...

Well I was very fortunate last night to get a back stage pass and be able to meet the band, crew and of course Neil and Chris., I've somehow managed the same for Nightlife and Release, extremely lucky!

Mostly females :shock:
Hm, i guess the guy with the passes needs briefing ;-)
Funny!
The audience was at least 50% gay, alot of straight couples and the age group varied from teenagers to 50+.
I know the Boys have previously been on U.S. daytime and late-night network television, and they've also been on U.S. syndicated TV, but was "Dancing with the Stars" the first time they've appeared on a major U.S. network program during primetime (7 to 11 p.m.)?
Personally, I doubt it, but then...

What about the MTV Music Awards that they performed on?
Have you noticed that the current tour is not described as the FUNDAMENTAL-tour on the official website or anywhere else? Strage... Should there be any reason for it?
Last post
The back stage pass that I have says "PSB Fundamental".
There were several Preprinted signs throughout the back stage area that say for example " Pet Shop Boys - Catering/Dressing rooms - Fundamental Tour"
For those of us in the US the Pets are going to be on The Late Late show tonight. Check your local listings for times and channels or if you have TIVO program them to record it tonight.

it would be even more brilliant if the late late show had viewers
I have to admit, while for most of my fave artists I know all of their major remixes, etc, but not for the PSB--partly because by the time I really became a hard core addict I already was buiying all the Further Listening editions which largely just have thier own (wonderful) mixes, etc.

Neil is in today's Observer Music Monthly mag, in the soundtrack to my life section. I've scanned the text, so if anybody wants it to host on the net, let me know and I'll e-mail it.

You might see my PSB-wall on MTV sooner or later. Haven´t recorded any footage yet. Gotta do it next week. :D
I see that the OS sez PSB will be doing to TV appearances while they're here in LA on the 8th & 9th.
Maybe they'll be the musical guests on Dancing with Mario .. uh ... the Stars.

Even better, they could film a spot on Desperate...

OMG thank you thank you!!!!! :D
bless you. I've been waiting to see this for a looooong time.
Neil recovered fast except for a little movement of the eyes. but he did seem pretty upset for the rest of the performance.
Johnny Marr is in town in L.A. playing with an existing band he apparently had joined called " Modest Mouse" , they performed last night in hollywood and are performing thursday night in Anaheim, CA.
So he is free Wednesday Night?
So is there a slight chance he may make a special last minute...

Marr is playing with Modest Mouse??? Really???? That strikes me as very, er... odd?
I'm bored. Go figure. Not bored enough to scroll back to the past pages of topics (face it, who does?) so apologies is this has been covered before, but I'm curious to see who is the most closely connected person to Pet Shop Boys through various degrees.
For example:
My good friend, Dan Hannon,...

I briefly shared a flat with a lady who was at uni with Brett Anderson who sang a lovely duet of Suede's 'Saturday Night' with Neil and snorted coke in a hotel room with him (allegedly).
Neil and Chris signed today at Virgin Sunset. The line was surprisingly long but moved fairly quickly. They seemed in much better spirits than the Tower Records signing a few years ago for the Nightlife Tour - very friendly and chatty.
As we all know, there's a burning issue that defines...
Last post
I was the one who said Absolutely fabulous is technically not a PSB single. And that's 100 percent correct.
No, it's not. The remaining Beatles can't just release any old Beatles material, but that doesn't make it "technically not Beatles singles."
Hello Pets! I'm assuming someone who attends the Montreal show tonight will post a full concert set list! PLEASE DO along with ALL THE DETAILS!

Yeah it is sad after a week of lots of PSB stuff.
Neil said just before Go West that "We love L.A. and that we may appear to be anti-america, but after spending the last few weeks in america we are definatley Pro-America!"
Tonight I'll be going to see the Pet Shop Boys for the first time ever and this reminds me of a sort of a funny story. Sometime last century while laboring (under a misapprehension) about becoming pop stars, our then-manager Ginger Canzoneri (who rather famously...

It's all been shite since PWL split. And the Cheeky Girls didn't make matters any better.
That was when I stopped watching Top of the Pops. (When it was broadcast in the States).
If Andrea Corr happens to be reading this, I still fancy you!
The theater looked full. Everyone, both onstage & off, was in fine spirits - Neil was in good voice & seemed pretty sprightly as did Chris. Sylvia was belting out her stuff like there was no tomorrow.
I've seen them in LA 3 times now - Nightlife,...
If you are a fan, I invite you to watch this absolutely pure jewel that my good friend debbieveda found on YouTube. It's a very early performance of West End Girls on a Europe show. Neil is so funny and Chris do DANCE behind his keyboard !!! I laugh so loud when I first watch it. Really worth...

I'm glad they did'nt continue in that way. Stand still, then slight hand movement OK.
Today, when I was helping Tower go out of business, I ran across a CD called Say Liza which I'd never seen. Since it onlycost $5 & had 4 songs off of Results on it, I figured I couldn't go wrong. Plus, the remixes of Don't drop bombs ( Disconet remix ) & Love Pains ( Deep House Pains ) didn't sound...

I was wondering if the Trev Horn gig will ever be released on DVD? I saw some videos from it on youtube, still wondering where those came from. I read the concert would be released earlier this year, but nothing yet. Or I might have missed it, but I doubt that.

It was on HDTV in Canada on Bravo Network last year--I caught the second half which led me to buying the CD set. Believe it or not :)

Odd random question... I recently found out a bunch of my cds by one of my top artists, Mylene Farmer were cheap russian bootlegs--so of course being the geeky collector I am I had to go and replace them all with legit copies.

Just got back. Love the stage setup. The songs were great, especially Where the Streets, Shopping, Heart, Flamboyant. Always On Mind is always a crowd pleaser, so is West End Girls and West Go. Dreaming of Queen was memorable. I like the whole video on screen setup. Reminds me of DM's Devotional...

Can I say one more thing? It never fails to amaze me to see some folks in the crowd who NEVER open their mouth to sing anything throughout the concert. Nope, they don't even move to the songs either. Makes me wonder...why are they there in the first place? And they have the nerve to stare at us...

I wouldn't waste space on a PSB-single and put the Barfly version of It's A Sin on it. The majority of fans wants new songs.
If we get a 4th single, EMI should be clever and put 1 new song on cd1 and also at least 1 new song on cd2. Yes, I share your opinion about new songs (that's why I stood...
Nightlife is the only current major PSB cd that I'm without a legitimate copy of (long story....) and while I'd like to buy one I keep on hearing that a 2 disc "further listening" edition is on its way so have forced myself to waitm, since I'm missing all the bsides from that era anyway.

When are we going to get the dates? If they're due to kick off in January you'd think we might have them by now.
Anyone heard anything?

Ask them that question. It has already been set that they will tour UK and Europe again in Jan/Feb. The rest of the world is always left at the end. That is just the way it is.
So what if Numb stalled at 23? Its surprising it got that high considering i went to Virgin, Woolworths and HMV and all i could find between them was four copies of CD1..
