Apparently its finally happening! Without Vicky B, of course!

Anyone else secretly delighted? Blush

The Cure haven't stopped playing live.

Not bad mix of locations. I'm surprised they're not doing Liverpool though! Mel C is an icon there!

Mel B is the driving force behind this. Out of all of them she needs the positive exposure and the money based on her rehab and divorce settlement woes. Not sure why Geri wants to do it other than her ego, which is a tad on the big size. Emma and Mel C have been a bit low key recently, still working but not high profile. Vic B has so moved on. She doesn't need the money and her sights are set firmly on loftier planes these days.

I can't see a massive demand for their offerings. We will however be seeing the annoying Mel B and Geri on every tv show for the foreseeable.

I wouldn't see that Mel B is in the right place to do it anyway.

Maybe Katie Price can be Posh's replacement. She'd be perfect - attention-seeking, desperate for cash and can't sing.

trumpdump · 05/11/2018 16:25

@MorningsEleven

Haha! Vicky B would not like that!

Wasn't Emma Bunton announced as the new host of American Bake Off? And she has regular radio show n pops up on tv often.
Mel C looked like she hated it the first time around, and since has acted like she's too good for the Spice Girls.

billysboy · 05/11/2018 18:26

just off to book tickets cant wait

RebootYourEngine · 05/11/2018 18:27

I loved the spice girls the first time around but you couldn't even pay me to go and see them now. I think the only sensible one our of the five is Victoria for not agreeing to this.

Sparklingbrook · 05/11/2018 18:28

Bit desperate isn't it?

I think they should be left in 1996.

nowifi · 05/11/2018 18:35

Preferred All Saints! Still do actually they still sound pretty decent BlushGrin

LAlady · 05/11/2018 18:39

They've had their day.

All seems a bit desperate. I did wonder if they would sell out an entire stadium but listening to the radio it does seem some people are excited at the prospect.

ForalltheSaints · 05/11/2018 18:45

I hope they fail to sell out every venue. Maybe it will put them off ever doing it again.

helacells · 05/11/2018 18:56

Nah they're way too old to be prancing about half dressed on stage. It's obvious that they're broke

Sparklingbrook · 05/11/2018 18:57

They were quite ropey first time around. I am quite surprised GH has agreed to it. I bet her DH is Hmm.

trumpdump · 10/11/2018 11:48

Yay! Finally got tickets! Who will I see there?!?

Wellhellojonsnow · 10/11/2018 12:54

Me!! I’m going and going to take DD7 - we are sooooo excited 😆

Wellhellojonsnow · 10/11/2018 12:55

I should say 7 year old DD!

Sniv · 10/11/2018 13:35

I'm not especially into them, but my girlfriend is a humongous fan and she's going to FLIP HER LID when she unwraps the tickets on Christmas day.

It's the perfect surprise as well, because I snuck off this morning to try and buy tickets when they were first released and got nothing but errors and 'no tickets found' and then some that were nearly £300 for the pair, so I gave up. I looked so gutted that I had to confess I'd tried and failed to get tickets, and we went for a commiseratory brunch. She was so sweet about it (she was cheering me up!) that I was kicking myself for not buying the expensive tickets, because she would have loved them so much it would have been worth it.

Had another look after brunch, more to torture myself than anything, but was just in time to see a new date released and I snagged some! She will be delighted. I don't know how I can keep a lid on it until Christmas.

Eeee!

trumpdump · 10/11/2018 13:35

They have 11 U.K. Dates now!

I am tempted to do 2 shows...

OP posts:
Ihopeyourcakeisshit · 10/11/2018 13:39

Apparently they have added more dates due to demand?!
I am amazed, oh and what the back has Mel B done to get face, she was so pretty.

trumpdump · 10/11/2018 15:01

That's nice @Sniv! Be careful she doesn't sneakily do the same for you though!

Mind you, then you'd get to go twice!
