Following five sold-out shows in Leeds, Manchester, Edinburgh, Birmingham and Bournemouth on their \u2018Super Tour\u2019 across the UK this February, the Pet Shop Boys have announced that they will return to the UK again in June 2017 with two extra dates in Nottingham on 22nd June at Motorpoint Arena.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

This week, Pet Shop Boys will collect the trophy for the Godlike Genius award at the VO5 NME Awards 2017. Previous Godlike Genius recipients include\u00a0U2,\u00a0Primal Scream,\u00a0Blondie,\u00a0The Cure\u00a0and last year\u2019s winners,\u00a0Coldplay. NME\u2019s editor-in-chief Mike Williams said: \u201cFor three decades, Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe have been pushing the boundaries of pop music, releasing a series of consistently excellent singles and albums and working to blur the boundaries between art, music and social commentary\u201d.<\/p>\n

For over 25 years the Pet Shop Boys have been regarded as innovators of the modern live music show, incorporating multimedia and theatrical elements into their productions, and they have worked with Derek Jarman, Zaha Hadid and Sam Taylor-Johnson.<\/p>\n

The Super Tour will see Pet Shop Boys perform songs from their acclaimed new album \u2018Super\u2019, as well as classic PSB hits and album tracks from their entire career. The Super tour was staged by long-term Pet Shop Boys designer Es Devlin and choreographer Lynne Page and the live arrangements were created together with Stuart Price, who produced the Super album.<\/p>\n

When the show was premiered last summer in a sold-out season at the Royal Opera House in London, it was\u00a0described by The Independent newspaper as \u201ca vivid, laser-laden spectacular\u201d while the Daily Telegraph raved that \u201cthe show encompasses high culture, club culture, theatre, cinema, political satire and a mind-bending laser show\u201d.<\/p>\n

Tickets go on sale at 10am on Friday 17 February and are available from\u00a0motorpointarenanottingham.com<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Following five sold-out
