There's definitely a buzz in the air for this tour! :wub:

100%, I was hearing people talk about it at work the other day too!

 

They’ve set up a mailing list:

Ah yes I saw that - I've signed up.

 

I don't want to get my hopes up too high, but perhaps Simon's actually listening to what the fans are wanting this time?

 

The vinyl of Don't Stop Movin' is already more than what we got last time round.

 

I'm so pleased the classic logo is being used this time round as well. I always preferred it over the later one!

Why is it called a "25th Anniversary Tour" if Bring It All Back was released in 1999? :huh:

I guess they can get away with this claim due to them being formed in 1998. They started filming Miami 7 & recording the S Club album in late 1998. For the public the introduction was most definitely in 1999, but for S Club 7 the work began in 1998.

 

It’s not as bad as Take That doing a 30th anniversary tour in 2019 when they weren’t formed until 1990 and didn’t breakthrough until 1992, at least! :kink:

More tour dates added!! :cheer:

I'm absolutely thrilled for them, this is officially a bigger/more successful tour than the 2015 tour. :wub: Wow at a third O2 date, and cool that it's a matinee!

Let’s hope they put the effort in from the off! Birmingham was the first date last time and there was lots of mining… it improved throughout the course of the tour but still, practice makes perfect!

Ayyy! Glad to see they've got more dates on (although slightly miffed they've added a matinee the day I'm going to The O2. I could have foregone booking a hotel if I'd known!)

Get them tickets on sale before JLS announce!

Incredible! Oh the temptation to see them twice in one day on that Saturday :lol:

^^^ Until last week I'd totally forgotten that the Birmingham show in 2015 was the opening night! :o This time around I'm seeing them on the third night (it was actually the second date until now, but they've added a new first date).

 

Joseph you totally should go to the matinee as well, make it well and truly an S Club 7 day and night :lol:

I'm just noticing the 4 day stretch of concerts from 18th to 21st without breaks, but that's not quite as full on as 26th to 29th with 5 shows in 4 days! Their only days off in this run are 15th, 17th, 22nd, 25th.

Oh wow, amazing new dates have been added! Tempted to maybe go to the 2nd Birmingham date too, we’ll see!

Just seen an interview where John said they will only have 4/5 weeks to rehearse.

 

For a band reformation i wish this was a longer period of time!

That doesn’t fill me with the greatest of hope.

Why when the dates are not until October?? They should be starting rehearsals now working on their vocals and blending etc. People are paying enough money put in the effort.

It's pretty standard practice to not begin rehearsals until much nearer the time of the tour. 4 or 5 weeks is quite a long time to dedicate to rehearsals. Some acts I've followed only set aside 2 weeks. They don't need to be doing it 7 - 8 months in advance!

Agreed, 4-5 weeks seems pretty standard? I'm pretty sure Little Mix only had 4 weeks or so for the Confetti tour.

I was gonna say four weeks is pretty standard for most pop bands' tour rehearsals. JLS and Olly Murs usually have that long with their tours.

Yeah but with respect, those guys are/were top of their game whereas… well… I’ll shut up
