Faith No More recently announced that they will getting back together to play a few festivals in Europe later this year. Ever since, I have been anxiously awaiting news that they would bring their big swag of hits down under. Although there has been no official word as yet, Faith No More's bass player Billy Gould posted this message on Twitter a few hours ago which has given me some hope."In answer to your questions of shows outside the EU, especially from Brazil and Australia, yes, we are thinking of coming there."
Re-forming for this reunion will be Mike Bordin, Roddy Bottum, Bill Gould, Jon Hudson and hard-working frontman Mike Patton. Faith No More split up in 1998 after being together for 17 years through various line-ups and this year will be the 20 year anniversary of the highly influential best seller The Real Thing, the first album featuring Mike Patton as singer.
