TT are heading back on tour next month! They’ll be performing it quite a lot of stadiums and arenas with Olly Murs as support!

Who will be getting tickets?

Olly is the ideal support act.

Just a few days until this starts! I'm interested to see what the setlist looks like.

Anyone going to it?

Would be nice if Howard made the studio version of 'Speak Without Words' available.

Went tonight.

Had a fun time but I have to say I was a bit underwhelmed by the production and a lot of the new stuff is weak live.

Poor Mark seeed to particularly struggle with his lead vocals on the new stuf.
I think Gary’s show graph was off - it was a noticeably weak opening and there were too many moments when they built and then lost momentum.

Would have liked more time on the B stage.

I did like Howard’s new song about his daughter - that and This Life might be the strongest of the new stuff.
Opening with Windows is a mistake, and so is giving Howard lead vocals on Everything Changes.
You really don’t want to remind everyone how much they miss Robbie!


Enjoyed the short solo spots - Forever Love has a very pretty melody and Gary sings it very well. Shame it hasn’t got a chorus.

When the classic material kicks in the difference in the crowd reaction is immense.

There are not so many countries TT are touring the last album made a huge impact aside Germany I think. Also the last albums and solo efforts had been average or none charting. So I think they tor to tour the legacy. It will be interesting to see if they will have many new tracks outside the UK. There the album sold very well.
All news I hear of TT in the Netherlands and Germany is referring to the 90ties success, not even to Their comeback album 2006 which charted well in many countries or Progress which also charted well. I also see that they are touring quite smaller venues outside the UK then in the past. Has someone an overview to how many people they would have played status now at the end of the tour if all venues would be sold out?

That is true. However, I still think it is fantastic that they are now going to new places to perform. As people say, it's better late than never. It also gives them more of an idea for potential future arrangements.
