Outlook for 2017
Pet Shop Boys have a lot of plans for 2017. The SUPER tour will continue in UK and Paris, new dates will be announced as well! A one-off show for Teenage Cancer Trust takes place in London in April and they’re playing at the Tinder Box festival in Denmark in June.
They also plan to continue the reissue series and will most likely release the missing reissued und remastered albums since Bilingual. There are rumours that a new album might be released in 2017, maybe a sequel to the Disco series?
