Dear North American Fans, We’ve heard your call for more shows and we are so thrilled to give you our full 2013 North American tour schedule! Can’t wait to see you.
Because of our endless admiration for your artistic efforts, we’ve decided to run another contest that would allow us to see more of your beautiful creations. This time, we are looking for your help in designing art for a t-shirt inspired by our song “I Think I’m Paranoid”. Our favorite design will appear on a limited-run t-shirt available for sale at the Garbage merch store.
The winner of the contest will see their design go into production, receive the final finished t shirt, an autographed limited edition 7” of their choosing, and a phone call from any band member they would like.
Starting today, please submit your lovely artwork to paranoidcontest@gmail.com by 10pm PST Thursday, January 31st *. A winner will be announced on February 7th.
*Please keep file to 2MB and under. If your piece is selected, please be prepared to send completed art that is 300 dpi, and a high res layered PSD or Illustrator file.
Happy Holidays everyone ……stay safe and have fun …….. we will see you in the new year. Thanks for everything. Love, garbage
PS - Thanks so much to Irene Cerro Valero and Fanny Mata for sending this lovely piece of art to us.
Since it’s the Holidays, we’ve decided to pick more than one winner for this month’s Instagram contest!
Evann Cash (photo on the left) has won a Steve Guitar String Necklace and Amber Harris’ (photo on right) prize is a Rainy Day Cat Tee. Thank you so much Evann and Amber and everyone else who has been submitting concert photos to our Instagram stream (#garbagetour).

We had an amazing time on our October/November tour in South America, Russia, and Europe and want to thank all of our amazing fans for coming out to see us!
If you have already purchased tickets, they will be valid at the new venue. If you have not yet purchased tickets, they are still available at http://www.orepole.sk/index.htm
We have decided to switch venues for our shows in each of your countries.
Our show in Asuncion, Paraguay on October 24th will now take place at Conmebol Bourbon Convention Center instead of the Yacht Y Golf Club Paraguayo.
Our show in Krakow, Poland on November 16th will now take place atKlub Kwadrat instead of Hala Wisla.
Our show in Berlin, Germany on November 27th will now take place at Huxleys instead of Astra. Our show at E-Werk in Cologne on November 26th will NOT change locations.
In both cases, tickets that have already been purchased will be honored at the new venue. Can’t wait to see you!
Garbage is now on Instagram and we want all of you darklings to help populate it with your great photos! Starting today, every month we will give away a piece of Garbage merch to the best Instagram photo taken at a Garbage show that is tagged #garbagetour.

We are extremely pleased to announce that we will be returning to Russia for the third time this year! Please see the full list of our Russian show dates below:
We just got a stack of these lovely posters for our show Thursday night with The Flaming Lips, Pondamonium, at the Madison Mallards baseball stadium.
There are still some tickets available or you can buy the “Not Your Kind of People” LP between now and Wednesday at Strictly Discs in Madison and be entered to win a pair. The shop is also giving a lucky 15 of those LP buyers a signed version of the record. You can buy the album either online or in-store to enter!
Due to the speed at which our upcoming October show, as well as the El Rey gigs that started our tour have sold out, we are moving our October 2 date from the Wiltern to the Palladium.
The show of support for this tour has been absolutely overwhelming and we want to be sure that we can play for as many of you as possible within our tight fall schedule.
All tickets purchased for the Wiltern will be honored at the Palladium, and a limited amount of additional tickets will go on sale Friday, July 27 at 10 AM at LiveNation.com.
