No official announcement has been made yet, but it looks like it's happening!
OMG wow
It's confirmed!
I went to Sporty 40 and it was a cool night.
So excited for this and its at Koko which means no matter where you are you will see her because the stage is so high.
*Envisioning that fabulous picture of her on the promo poster as the photo of her behind one of the SPICE letters for a future release*.
Manifest it, bitches. It's our only hope at this point.
I hope the new album will be out by now
Very nice! I can't go but I'll look forward to all the footage
Which songs would you all like her to do for this special event?
OMG presale was a mess my kink came through after 3pm
Luckily my friends came through at 9.45 an and secured tickets!!
i didn't get my link until 4pm and now it says not available at the moment.... does anyone know when it'll go on general sale?
Why she didn’t book a bigger venue? I want to get tickets but I’m not sure if it would be possible
I managed to get a ticket in the pre-sale this morning. Not been to Koko in years so this should be fun!
Not sure how she is going to make a setlist !! Will be so hard!!
I hope her and her team film it like Sportys 40!
My link didn't arrive until hours after it had sold out. Never seen a more poorly handled presale...!!!
^ It always happens even for artists like Madonna and Kylie.
I sign up for a load of presales and 99% of the time the link arrives in advance with no problem
You post in the Kylie forum remember the vegas issues ! It happens.
As a Madonna fan also faces issues with presales throughout the years!
Sold out in a heartbeat!
Tried for tickets but they were gone immediately - seems the majority went in the pre-sale.
I can’t believe I didn’t get the tickets, anybody knows a safe place to get them in the resales? . Also I don’t get why she booked such a small venue, looks like a lot of people is missing the tickets.
^ keep an eye on Twickets for resale, that's the only one I'd trust
Well done to those of you who got tickets and commiserations to those who didn’t
Hopefully she sugababes and perform a new song.
No more covers, please.
She certainly has enough material/spice girls songs to not have any covers.
The only acceptable cover would be would be 'I'm so excited' as a nod to where it all started.
I'd love Geri to be there and sing with her and not just Emma

Lots of rumours that Tom Grennan will be there!
Can't believe it's tomorrow. Quite excited actually! Just trying to remember where I put my T-Shirt from the live show she did in lockdown...
Today is the big day!
Happy 50th Birthday to Melanie!
Happy birthday Queen C
Happy birthday Melanie!
Happy birthday Qween!!!
On the train down to London now! Someone at work told me that they know Ricky Wilson’s family and they said he is going to be at the show tonight. Performing possibly?
It was a great show just a bit too spice heavy for me. Loved viva forever but could have done without the rest and had some more Melanie C songs. Was great to see some older stuff not performed for a while like Why, Reason, Home, Beautiful intentions, Gaga and Weak though!!!!🥰
The gig was epic but this venue is not the one !!!
Oh wow Viva Forever, Who Do You Think You Are and 2 Become 1 with Emma and also the All Saints girls and Sink The Pink. GAY RIGHTS!!
Plus, my favourite Mel song, HOME being performed. Sounds like a great gig!!
We got our reunion! lmao
Phoenix also DJ’d before Mel’s set!
OMG i arrived during the DJ set , just learning now it was Phoenix !!
Does anyone have a good link to good video recordings? Id like to see the guests sections and some of the solo stuff too
Guess the Spice fans are old now lol
It's a CLUB venue, a pretty important and 'cool' one at that, that also hosts gigs. But yes clearly she went for 'cool' when she could have gone a bit bigger, though in a normal venue she wouldnt have been able to do the after party and DJs into 3am, just her gig.
She wanted a party not just a normal gig, clearly. It's her birthday at the end of the day
Overall it was a good night - still living for the performances of "Viva Forever" and "2 Become 1" she did with Emma and Nat and Nic Appleton, and to hear some solo deep cuts like "Reason", "Home" and "Ga Ga" in particular. I did used to go to KOKO quite a bit back in the day because they used to film The Album Chart Show for T4 there and it was enjoyable back then.
Maybe it's because I'm not in my early twenties anymore but I'm not sure it's the same venue for me now. I get that it was Mel's choice of venue but that doesn't necessarily mean it was the right choice. Especially when you're somewhere near the back like I was (I'm 6 ft 3 so could still get a decentish view when I wasn't being shoved) and trying to hear what she's saying over pissed up Ellas dressed as Sporty Spice who are heckling David Arnold for not being Emma Bunton (I came close to telling them to not be so bloody rude, but thought better of it).
The royal albert hall does not suit the type of show that Melanie puts on so im pleased it was not there !!
I loved the fantastic reaction to HICA & Reason!!
The people standing around me did not know the songs from Beautiful Intentions.
Be interesting to see what venues she selects for the upcoming tour.
Setlist - (thought it had been posted)
Northern Star
Here I Am / Weak
In & Out Of Love
Never Be The Same Again
Next Best Superstar
Beautiful Intentions
Goin Down / Gaga
Version Of Me / Why
Home
When Youre Gone with Ricky Wilson
Here It Comes Again
Reason
Viva Forever with Emma
2 Become 1 with All Saints
Who Fo You Think You Are
Spice Up Your Life
Blame It On Me
Overload
Touch Me
I Turn To You
This was the opening video of the show:
So personally I loved the setlist but would have preferred to have Think about it and Anymore over two of the Spice tracks and Who I am rather than Overload.
I would have gone:
Northern Star
Here I Am / Weak
In & Out Of Love
Never Be The Same Again
Next Best Superstar
Beautiful Intentions
Goin Down / Gaga
Version Of Me / Why
Home
When Youre Gone with Ricky Wilson
Here It Comes Again
Reason
Viva Forever with Emma
Who Fo You Think You Are (with All Saints, Sink Pink, Phoenix Chi and all the rest)
Think about it
Anymore
Blame It On Me
Who I am
Into you
I Turn To You
That would have been close to perfection for me.
I also thought Anymore and Think A bout It would return to the setlist!
I guess she is saving them for an eventual greatest hit set !!
She has always mentioned leaving the audience wanting more.
Sporty Forty was better in my opinion from the location to the set list...
The videos look like it was a great fun gig!! Well done Mel!!
Also, realised that Mel now sings 'There's a man in Timbaktu' in Spice Up Your Life instead of that awful lyric in the original. Good for her, I hope they adopt it
