Garbage concert chronology

The Not Your Kind of People Tour is the fifth world concert tour cycle by American/Scottish alternative rock group Garbage. The tour launched May 2012 in Los Angeles, United States and included headline performances and festival appearances throughout North America, Europe and Asia.[1][2] The tour also routed South America and several festivals in Australia during 2013.

The tour marks the first Garbage concerts since 2007;[3] and the first tour since the Bleed Like Me tour was ended in October 2005. "Thinking about going back on the road is both thrilling and terrifying in equal measure", lead singer Shirley Manson stated in a press release for the launch of the album and tour; "…but we’ve always enjoyed a little pain mixed in with our pleasure."[4] The band's touring line-up is augmented by the addition of Eric Avery on bass guitar. Tour rehearsals took place in Los Angeles throughout March.

A DVD/Blu-ray release of the Denver, Colorado show was released in May 2013, titled One Mile High... Live.
