About South Kensington Tube

Placebo founders Brian Molko and Stefan Olsdal both attended the same school in Luxembourg, without speaking to each other or being friends. Nevertheless, the two met again by chance in 1994, back home in London. Where? Exactly here at South Kensington Underground Station. At that time, Olsdal was taking guitar lessons and was on his way home. Molko, seeing the guitar, invited Olsdal to watch him perform at a local acoustic gig in Deptford the weekend afterwards. That later seemed to be the day that changed their both lives forever - as they formed a band later called Placebo soon afterwards.
