The David Bowie film (2022) starts with Hallo Spaceboy!
Almost the entirety plays out, including Neil's verse, whilst various Bowie & scene setting imagery is shown.
Really incredible and it's an honour to PSB to be featured not only in the film but right at the start.

I can see a Pet Text...

Yes, the Earls Court footage is extremely good quality, whereas some other stuff isn't.

This review from Cannes a few months ago tells you everything:

Marc performed a great cover of Rent this evening at Cadogan Hall with piano accompaniment from Chris (Braide!) saying beforehand that it was a song he wished he'd written and afterwards that he's always jealous of it!

That works! Thanks. Great quality too.

Hello petheads

Long time lurker and even longer time die hard here.

I have it on very good authority that the US Tour this fall will be a co-headline one with NEW ORDER.

Major news I think.

Thoughts!?

It’s like a dream come true. The only way it could have been even better for me if Depeche Mode were also on the bill. (Although, with a few song exceptions I don’t like DM post SOFAD album). Those 3 bands together… That would have been too much of a good thing I guess.

this is how i felt when i...

Sorry if it's been mentioned before, couldn't see it if so. This was a good listen.

Really nice listen - I took the longer walk home so I could finish this on my commute home :)

Like the bit about having a one-way relationship with the boys ... and could resonate with the points made that we as a listener are effectively 'part' of the Pet Shop Boys experience.

In light of recent government advice in relation to the ongoing situation and threat of COVID-19 globally, Pet Shop Boys’ Dreamworld tour can no longer commence as planned in May 2020 and the dates are being rescheduled. The European leg of the tour was...

Last post

As some may be aware, the U.K is hosting next year's Eurovision Song Contest. The date and venue of which has not yet been decided or finalised.. To that end, certain tours may be affected.. PSB are on the watch list.. Hopefully they will be spared..

Isn’t it always in May?

A compilation remix album (not in the “disco”series vein) but like the forthcoming Madonna compilation.

For my own entertainment, and ahead of their joint Unity tour this autumn, I’ve put together a Spotify playlist of all New Order and Pet Shop Boys’ singles, combined in chronological order.

Running their singles together in this way highlighted to me a few interesting career synergies which I...

We speculate about this kind of thing every time there’s a tour and to my knowledge it’s never happened.

There was speculation in 1999 that Bowie would join them on stage in Atlanta, lolz.

I noticed today is the last ever episode of ‘Neighbours’. Does anyone have a the clip of our Chris appearing on there?
Does anyone know when it was, and why he was on there?

Why was Kylie a mute?

She's had so much Botox she can no longer speak.

Weird question.

Those white boots Tennant's been wearing at the concerts, in the first part.

They're nice.

Anyone know where I can get some and/or what they are?

Last post

I used to work (many years ago) where they used to make Doc Martens boots before I got ill. They had a lot of factories/units at that time and a lot have gone now. There are just a few left and it may be worth looking at a programme that is often of BBC 2 called Inside the Factory - you may be able...

On Radio 1 in the early 90s there used to be a regular ‘skit’ called at home with the pet shop boys. They were only a minute or so long and were played on steve wright’s show I believe. It was basically 2 actors voicing Neil and Chris in stereotypical style (Neil talkative, chris grumpy). As I...

I don't mind a bit of PSB satire - the Spitting Image parody was savage (and homophobic) but still funny - but coming from a miserable beta male like Wright I'll pass.

He was busy with his (underrated) movie UHF. It flopped and he was kinda in a...

From an article published in the Sunday Times. If you have a free account, you can read three articles per month.

The new tour is a five-star hit; their most recent album was well-received; new music — possibly an EP with songs about modern fascism — will be incoming.

Personally, I really liked the idea of Agenda being separate from Hotspot. Politics has become so politically charged over the past decade, and people's world-views based on such different premises that you can't even arrive at mutual agreement nowadays on what they ought to be called. That's not...

Hello!
Speaking of jingles, several years ago I heard something like PET SHOP PET SHOP PET SHOP BOYS between two of their songs. Does it ring a bell to you?
I don't know if it was an official jingle or a sound created to mix songs together, but I thought it was pretty cool! :-)
Was it this?...
