Some facts
3 March: British label Mute released a new album by Laibach called SPECTRE. The release was first followed by a thorough European tour (30 concerts), the second American leg to follow in autumn. In the meantime the band played its first performance in China, in Hong Kong on 22 March, where there was an exhibition on Laibach on view since 17 January, and a seminar on the Slovenian band held at the University of Hong Kong on 21 March. At the end of the spring leg of the tour, on 16 May Laibach are returning after a long time to Ljubljana’s Križanke venue where they first performed at the famed Novi Rock ’82. Since 1981, this will have been their sixth performance in Križanke and the 26th in the Slovenian capital.
