Great that they're playing stadia but where are the actual cities? I would love to finally see them live though!

Posted by: Martyn Nov 27 2017, 06:47 PM

Come through Colchester!

Posted by: Joe. Nov 27 2017, 06:57 PM

These aren’t proper stadium capacities; some of them are tiny.

It's the next town to my home town so I'm thrilled! But now I live in Crawley... so that sucks. Hove it is then.

Posted by: JerdNoseReindeer Nov 27 2017, 10:43 PM

Northampton! might have to look into seeing them again already if they're playing in my town

Posted by: Martyn Nov 28 2017, 07:45 AM

If you’ve moved to Crawley I’m guessing based on guys from round here they have moved there you work for an airline.

I would love to go given that they're coming to Derby (very close to where I live) but I can't really afford it. I may have to wait until whenever their next arena tour is.

Bought tickets for Falkirk

Posted by: Jamesy Nov 30 2017, 02:53 PM

Bought gold circle tickets for Derby!

They've announced their support acts.

Australian "Indie-pop" group - Germein Sisters

And the most recent X Factor UK Winners - Rak Su!

Rak Su are gonna get the crowd warmed up really well I reckon!

Swansea, Huddersfield and Bolton are all decent sized stadiums (ranging between 20k-30k).

Posted by: Joe. Mar 5 2018, 07:57 PM

That’s still quite small for a stadium. That’s more an arena size. Proper stadiums for a stadium tour capacities are around 80k. The smaller shows are around 50k.

Yes I've been flying for 6 years this year! A few colleagues have claimed to had the girls on-board and there were mixed reactions, I'd be so nervous if I flew them, I kind of don't want it to happen, even though the majority of celebs we fly are complete dolls... Jeremy Clarkson is not one of them! Haha!!

They're small compared to Wembley but still decent enough in size. The right amount for Little Mix I would say.

Posted by: Joe. Mar 7 2018, 07:42 AM

I know. I’m just saying it wouldn’t be classed as a ‘stadium tour’. I think they might actually do a stadium tour next year, I think they’re ready.

Posted by: jamemixer. Mar 7 2018, 04:57 PM

do you think they could sell out Wembley Stadium if they did 1 show there, 1 show in Millenium Stadium in Cardiff and then a stadium in Scotland then Ireland so basically one show in each part of the UK

Posted by: Joe. Mar 7 2018, 08:23 PM

Sure, why not?

Posted by: shindymindy Mar 7 2018, 09:20 PM

I think they can sell out Wembley - quite easily.

Posted by: Jonjo Mar 8 2018, 12:38 AM

Maybe they're doing this mini stadium tour to test the waters a bit?

Posted by: Seinfeld Mar 8 2018, 01:35 AM

I'm not convinced. I think the Spice Girls are the only girl group who would sell out Wembley.

Posted by: Joe. Mar 8 2018, 07:56 AM

In 2017 in London:
Royal Naval College 7,245 / 7,245
Twickenham Stoop 16,492 / 20,000
O2 arena 15,672 / 16,864
O2 arena 16,864 / 16,864
O2 arena 16,864 / 16,864
O2 arena 15,091 / 16,864
= 88,262 London tickets sold. (And that’s with the Summer tour being only half assed promoted)

Twickenham stadium capacity: 82,000
Wemebly stadium capacity for concerts: roughly 80,000 (Madonna’s staging was 74,000 for example)

Posted by: Seinfeld Mar 8 2018, 09:20 AM

You're giving me numbers spread over several dates. It doesn't mean they would sell out Wembley in one night.

Posted by: shindymindy Mar 8 2018, 09:38 AM

If people knew there was only 1 London date, tickets would sell quickly

Posted by: Jonjo Mar 8 2018, 11:21 AM

Also, just imagine all those people that wanted tickets but couldn't get them. Plus, with it being Wembley I assume it would be promoted to a much, MUCH bigger deal. People would be willing to travel all the way to London, just to experience a Wembley gig.

I'm not sure if it'd sell out in minutes or anything, but it def sell out at some point and at this point of their careers. I think it's now deemed "cool" to like them in all honesty. The public have embraced them so much, that they'd be willing to go to Wembley.

So they've snubbed DNA WTF

Posted by: Jonjo Jul 7 2018, 09:42 PM

Not gonna lie but I expected so much more from the choreo It felt quite basic, not bad but just a bit basic for them.

Posted by: LeeWallace Jul 11 2018, 12:04 AM

V basic, especially swinging of arms

Posted by: Seinfeld Jul 11 2018, 12:50 AM

Almost as basic as The Saturdays x

Posted by: Juliano Jul 11 2018, 10:25 AM

Missing You, Disco Love and Egos choreos are all better than whatever that was, but I get that all these high energy performances are knackering.

Posted by: Seinfeld Jul 11 2018, 01:35 PM

The Saturdays couldn't dance though x

I'm not surprised the choreo for Only You is basic (vocally it was performed well but the song/beat is so basic in all honesty). The other performances were fantastic!
