Bleed Like Me World Tour

The Bleed Like Me Tour was the fourth world concert tour by American rock band Garbage, in support of their fourth album Bleed Like Me (2005). It began in Paris, France and took the band throughout North America, Europe and Australia. The tour included headline performances, rock festivals, and television and radio shows. After being initially organised on a smaller scale, the tour snowballed into bigger venues when the 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 and dates in France, Belgium and United Kingdom were cancelled. A statement from the band said that they had "somewhat overextended themselves".

Former Jane's 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. Matt Walker, who performed on the album, covered Butch Vig on drums on a few North American shows. A number of artists supported Garbage throughout the run of the tour, including The Dead 60's, JJ72, Los Abandoned, Melatonine, Silo, Red Jezebel and theSTART. 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.
