Amazing news. I'm glad they want to do more for the fans (and themselves) in this way...I'm seeing The Divine Comedy on the Saturday at the Royal Festival Hall and it's the Royal Albert Hall summer party on the Monday, otherwise may have been tempted.

Excellent. I wish they'd at least filmed the concert. It's definitely better than the Dreamworld tour.

This is great news for Petheads in Europe that missed out on the Camden run!

Love that pic - not seen it before. The boys are looking fresh!

Fantastic! 😁

It was pretty inevitable given how well the Camden run went and was received.

I'm guessing tickets about €150?

At least you do not have to worry too much if you do not get the Berlin tickets!

It's such a good idea to take Obscure globally.

This is literally the true fans' show.

Great they're extending these shows. Potential songs to be played at the Berlin concerts:

Entschuldigung
Wiedersehen
Will-o-the-wisp
You are the one
Wedding in Berlin (maybe as the intro?)
The schlager hit parade

This is neat. Obviously they've found a way to tack on a couple of Obskur dates to a Dreamworld gig. Maybe it'll be a "thing" with other Dreamworld dates along the way?

As Peter Hook frequently reminds fans, its really up to the promoters as to where he will end up doing a gig, so I imagine PSB would be happy to do Obscure sets anywhere if a promoter could make the stars align at the right price.

Does anyone know what venue is like..?? The Electric Ballroom wasn't ideal...
