Garbage concert chronology

The Bleed Like Me Tour was the fourth world

press statement from the band stated that they had "somewhat overextended themselves".[3]

Former

theSTART.[12] During one festival appearance, Garbage performed four mash ups with Canadian electroclash musician Peaches.[13]

Each performance on the tour was led-in by an intro-tape of

greatest hits DVD.[15]

Tour itinerary

radio station 99x offered a competition prize of being Garbage's tour manager for the day, including traveling with Garbage from the hotel to the venue and participating in their soundcheck.[19]

Garbage returned to Europe to perform for on the bills of numerous rock festivals across the continent over six weeks, kicking of on June 1 in Denmark. During the run the band performed a few headline shows, such as a single date at London's

Canadian provinces, and then back south down the American west coast. The headline shows ended in Las Vegas
on September 15.

It is with great regret that Garbage have decided to cancel their visit to France, Belgium and the UK in October. Having been constantly on the road since the beginning of March the band feel they have somewhat overextended themselves and have mutually decided to conclude their tour at the end of September in Australia. The band wish to extend their apologies to all Garbage fans in the territories involved and thank them profusely for their support.

Garbage performed at one last North American show, for KROQ's Inland Invasion festival before heading to Australia to perform seven shows at the end of that month with indie rock band Red Jezebel in support. The final show in Perth on October 1 marked the end of the Bleed Like Me tour.[22] A set of European concerts were announced for October, and subsequently cancelled.[23]

Garbage disbanded at the end of the tour for an indefinite "hiatus".[24] Manson told the press: "We feel that this has been a really great tour and we feel that we have really muscled through... we just want to take some time off while things are really good between us".[25] Rumours abounded that the band had split, but Manson reassured that they were not interested in breaking up.[26] Garbage spent the following five years inactive, aside from playing a short set at a Los Angeles benefit concert,[27] sporadic recording in 2007 for a greatest hits compilation[28] and in 2008 for a charity tribute album.[29] The "hiatus" ended with an official reformation in 2010.[30]

Tour production

San Diego's Street Scene

Rehearsals for the Bleed Like Me tour took place during February and March 2005. Pre-production tasks included sourcing and programming the sounds and

Shut Your Mouth". Due to having limited rehearsal time, Garbage were only able to prepare an initial setlist of around fifteen songs.[32]

Garbage operated a "quiet stage" by removing

wave file onto disc for future reference.[32]

Drum triggers were used extensively because

Queer" to give a soft and gentle but ominous feel to the proceedings.[14] The band's stage backdrop featured a low-resolution LED curtain supported by four 40" high-resolution plasma TV screens. Some of the footage was manipulated from the hardware's media server, while some content was provided by music video director Sophie Muller for specific songs, including close-ups of Manson's eyes for "Why Do You Love Me".[14]

booked by Jenna Adler at Creative Artists Agency, while the band's tour management was overseen by Gayle Fine of Q Prime.[1]

Promotional performances

Garbage performed on a number of TV shows and radio stations during the tour to promote Bleed Like Me and its singles. While some were fully set up live band performances, a number of them were lip synced when the host studios were not able to accommodate the band's live equipment. One televised event, T4 on the Beach was a three-hour UK-televised concert featuring a multitude of current bands and pop artists performing short sets on the Weston-super-Mare beachfront: due to the quick turnaround time of the event, each act had to lipsynch their tracks.[56] Later, in Trieste, Italy, Garbage performed a full live six-song set for Isle of MTV in the city's Piazza Unità d'Italia, this show was broadcast across the continent.[57] In late August, Garbage performed a full-length live show at WTTW Studios, Chicago in front of a studio audience for the series Soundstage. The show aired on PBS stations a year later on July 6, 2006.[58]

Critical reception

Garbage's performance on the Bleed Like Me tour met with a mostly-positive appraisal from music critics; some gave a more favourable reception to their shows – and Shirley Manson's stage presence and persona – than they did for the album. Reviewing Garbage's "comeback" show at London's

XFM's John Ford wrote of the band's Glastonbury performance "a revitalised Garbage pummel the Pyramid Stage as the sun goes down. [There was] a bizarre moment where Manson was actually dry humping a full-size latex sex doll. Weird, captivating and down-right good fun."[63]
