According to bassist Billy Gould’s Twitter, Faith No More will end its recent reunion with a final show on December 5th in Santiago, Chile:
TOURDATE NEWS! Santiago, Chile. DEC 5…. Our Final Show of FNM Reunited 2.0….
Roddy Bottum also commented via his Twitter:
it’s true, we’re giving Santiago what they’ve asked for. we’re wrapping up the FNM reunited tour in Santiago, Chile on December 5!!!!
Anything’s possible, but it looks like this is it for the beloved genre-defying band fronted by the enigmatic Mike Patton. Now, according to their website (scroll down), they’re definitely ending the reunion after the concert in Santiago. Roddy Bottum’s Twitter backs up this claim as well. Having extensively toured the world throughout 2009, they almost didn’t make it to the US until they were contacted by Coachella. They played three nights in San Francisco, where they were joined by original frontman Chuck Mosley on the last night, then Coachella in April 2010 and then appeared for three shows on the East Coast before trekking back to Europe. This is it ladies and gentlemen: Faith No More is no more. Now go find tickets!
UPDATE: Roddy Bottum and Billy Gould have both announced via their respective Twitter profiles that the band will play Tuesday November 30th at the Hollywood Palladium.
From Billy Gould:
HELLO! We’re gonna play LA!!! Nov. 30, Hollywood Palladium. We’re gonna do a fan presale to f%ck the scalpers. Passord: Wed, Sept 15, 10am
From Roddy Bottum:
