I don’t wanna feel Blue anymore...
PLACEBO PART COMPANY WITH DRUMMER STEVE HEWITT
Placebo have parted company with drummer of 11 years, Steve Hewitt, due to personal and musical differences.
Brian Molko commented "Being in a band is very much like being in a marriage, and in couples - in this case a triple - people can grow apart over the years. To say that you don't love your partner anymore is inaccurate, considering all that you've been through and achieved together. There simply comes a point when you realize that you want different things from your relationship and that you can no longer live under the same roof, so to speak."
The split is amicable and a sad time for both parties. Steve Hewitt replaced Robert Schultzberg behind the drum kit in 1996 whilst the band were promoting Placebo’s eponymous debut album and went on to record the following 4 studio albums ‘Without You I’m Nothing’, ‘Black Market Music’, ‘Sleeping With Ghosts’ and most recently ‘Meds’.
I'm a terrible fan. Sure, having 10 favourite bands is kind of tough. But I can't believe I missed something as important as this, which happened over a year ago. Needless to say I'm very disappointed. I honestly thought they were forever. Even if it's the least the band could lose, Steven was the man who kept this band together through the years, he's been in the band for 11 out of 12 years. It's not the same without him anymore. I'm glad I went to gig before it happened though. It was their last tour together. I'm sure they will continue making good music for years to come, but to me this is the end of Placebo as I know and love it.
A little picspam beacuse I want to. I lost my precious gallery years ago and don't hope to get it back, but... читать дальше
