Mel B on her ig stories has apologized about the sound issues and hoped it will be a lot better in Cardiff, from what i've read the sound is never the best at Croke Park

I’m glad they are aware of the sound problem, some of the clips were so low it seemed like they were lip syncing even though they weren’t. I bet Mel C in particular will be furious about this.

Well, yes and no to that. There was a lot of miming involved. Not everything, as they very clearly sang a lot live too. But it was track heavy in places, with whole verses and bridges mimed in some songs.

Not to defend them, they did the same on the 1st show during the ROTSG tour and the backtrack dissapeared during the shows after that.

Yes I remember that from 2007. Hope some of these issues will be ironed out in the next couple of shows.

 

And that Geri throws away that awful first dress :blink:

This is all so exciting! Mel C with the blue in her hair feels particularly nostalgic. :wub: bring on June 15th!

 

(there was no way I could avoid spoilers for that long :kink:)

I hope Mel B doesn’t use the F word in the next shows, I don’t think the audience appreciates it.

I love the outfits they did wear for Wannabe, the was the nostalgic factor they missed on the last tour.

I thought it was nice how Mel B said “5 of us” in the Girl Power interlude video.

Yes that was a very nice touch. I suppose in the last tour for Wannabe the only nostalgic part was using the stairs for the chorus choreography.

Not entirely. There are certain songs that were never live on that tour. Who Do You Think You Are was mimed then and was definitely not entirely live last night (at least not the verses anyway). Hoping they get a bit more confident and go fully live for the rest of the tour.

 

I'm pretty sure Earls Court is the only time they've done a concert 100% live. Unless Istanbul was before they dubbed it afterwards.

Desperately hoping the sound quality isn't an issue in Cardiff!

Yeah I watched front row YouTube videos and seems prerecorded vocals but not from the studio released versions. Emma put her microphone out to the audience in her solo in 2B1 but you could still hear her lol.

What did Geri say about Easy V during Wannabe? It made Mel B and the audience laugh. I can’t hear it well.

easy V doesn’t some for free WHERE IS SHE according to a guy in the audience.

Let Love Lead The Way is full (Album Version), Mel B can finally sing her lines :heart:

I was in the back stand and the sound where we were was perfect and I had a friend in an upper tier and they said sound was fine where they were. Maybe some of the speakers weren't sinked up right in some locations? I dunno 🤷‍♀️

Has anyone read the Guardian review? Quite brutal but it's a good review I guess, as it is not the usual 'OMG IT WAS SO FUN!!!' kind of review that the others put forward. This review contextualises the notion of 'values' presented within the show and how the Spice Girls use those so-called values in a very vaccuous way in general.

 

The writer of that Guardian review is obviously trying very hard to ignore every joyful moment of the performance. It's like she wasn't even there. Desperate to inject some bile, she's more focussed on all the tabloid nonsense that surrounds the group, rather than the show in front of her. How the hell does she know anything about their personal values? Bet she doesn't get a lot of party invites.

Was there any dance or video interludes ?
