The Bleed Like Me Tour was the fourth world concert tour cycle by American/Scottish alternative rock group Garbage. The tour launched in Paris, France and took the band throughout North America, Europe and Australia in support of the band's fourth studio album ''Bleed Like Me'' which was released internationally in April 2005. The tour took in combinations of headline performances, slots on the bills at rock festivals, television and radio shows. After being initially organised low-key, the tour snowballed into bigger venues when the parent album and its lead single "Why Do You Love Me" became surprise hits internationally.〔 The tour concluded in Perth, Western Australia after six months on the road; when the tour leg of dates in France, Belgium and United Kingdom were cancelled. A press statement from the band stated that they had "somewhat overextended themselves".〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Garbage pull tour )〕 Former Janes Addiction bassist Eric Avery left his position as a member of Alanis Morissette's backing band to perform bass guitar for the duration of the tour.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Jane's Addiction Ex-Bassist Eric Avery Recovers With Solo LP, Calls Billy Corgan 'Inspiring' )〕 Matt Walker, who had performed on the ''Bleed Like Me'' album, covered on drums on a small number of North American shows. Walker had also covered for the band on a previous tour.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=FX Profile: Matt Walker )〕 A number of artists supported Garbage throughout the run of the tour, including The Dead 60's, JJ72,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=JJ72 return! )〕 Los Abandoned,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=L.A. rockers Los Abandoned developing a solid fan base )〕 Melatonine,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.indiepoprock.net/live.php?id=127 )〕 Silo,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Silo News Archive )〕 Red Jezebel〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Red Jezebel - How I Learnt to Stop Worrying )〕 and theSTART.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=TheSTART on tour now with GARBAGE )〕 During one festival appearance, Garbage performed four mash ups with Canadian electroclash musician Peaches. Each performance on the tour was led-in by an intro-tape of Johnny Cash's posthumous cover version "Hurt". The first three legs of the tour were documented by a film crew, which was hosted as streaming video on the band's website, and as extra content on their single and album releases. More of the footage was later incorporated into a full-length documentary, ''Thanks for the Uhhh, Support'', which was released on the band's 2007 greatest hits DVD.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=New Best Of Album )〕 ==Tour itinerary== Garbage began a three-week promotional tour of Europe from March 19, during which time Garbage performed live tracks on various television and radio shows, prior to performing two warm-up headline club shows in Paris (supported by local group Melatonine) and in London. The band then travelled to Germany to perform at WDR's ''Rochnacht'' televised concert,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Garbage to Headline Rocknacht )〕 and also performed a full set for broadcast on Radio Fritz. A brief North American tour of theaters and clubs was scheduled to begin in Seattle on April 8 and end May 4 in Chicago;〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Shirley Manson Gets Ready To Sing And Type On Garbage Tour )〕 however the band had picked up an influenza infection while in Europe and cancelled the first show. The tour then restarted in San Francisco, heading down the Pacific coast and over to the Eastern Seaboard. The band then played two shows in Canada and then headed around the Midwest. The North American leg was eventually extended, ending on May 10 in Cleveland. Garbage then performed on the bill at the HFStival in Baltimore. For the band's Atlanta show, local 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 sound check.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=99X Wants You To Be Garbage's Tour Manager )〕 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 Brixton Academy and at Barcelona's Razzmatazz. The band dedicated their Glastonbury performance of "Right Between the Eyes" to Australian singer Kylie Minogue who'd had to cancel her appearance on the same night after being diagnosed with breast cancer. The run ended in Austria on July 15. Garbage returned to the United States to perform at a few festivals, and made a three-date trek into Mexico where they were supported by local act Los Abandoned, and performed an entire set in a TV studio for the series ''SoundStage''. Garbage began a four-week series of shows on August 22 in Chicago with California new wave band TheStart in support. The routing took the tour into a number of Canadian provinces, and then back south down the American west coast. The headline shows ended in Las Vegas on September 15. 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.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Garbage Announce "Indefinite Hiatus" )〕 A set of European concerts were announced for October, and subsequently cancelled.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Quick Hits: Coldplay, Guns N' Roses, Snoop Dogg, Traffic, Voivod, Cold, American Idol, Garbage, Vegoose festival, Glassjaw, The Vandals )〕 Garbage disbanded at the end of the tour for an indefinite "hiatus".〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Shirley Manson On Garbage Hiatus: 'I'm Burnt, I'm Done, I'm Toast' says singer. )〕 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".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Garbage isn't breaking up )〕 Rumours abounded that the band had split, but Manson reassured that they were not interested in breaking up.
