Sure it will be - the week I am phoneless as I broke my phone by accident so am unable to check twitter or org or wherever else this will be announced. I hope it gives enough notice to buy tickets... can someone take my number and let me know.. oh no wait.. I don't have a mobile

I've been hoping for London arena dates since I missed out on the Hit 'n' Run dates earlier in the year (just couldnt drop things that quickly to get there)....an O2 reunion for all the Orgers who were there in 2007 for those life-changing shows would also be fantastic! Just please dont put the tickets on sale during the next two weeks when I'm away on hols!

Wore my org O2 Last night T-shirt to the Birmingham (first night) gig

Veni, Vidi, Funki Anyone else still got theirs?

Yup, still got mine! Anyone ever hear from LordMarcusMont who put them together? I wore mine to the Hop Farm couple of years back hoping to bump into some old faces but no joy...

Wembley Arena 30 May..........next Friday!

Have heard this is is due to be confirmed tomorrow and tickets on sale Saturday.

So .. is the first time ever that London has been skipped? I am so glad I went to Manchester!!!

London wasn't skipped, tit all kicked off in London back in February. This is Part II, which implies a continuation of what went before.

I'd say we got better than an arena tour. Although admittedly not great for the London people who couldn't drop everything at such short notice.

Disagree... We have been left out as we had no arena tour. Manchester got it all.

I do feel very lucky to live in Manchester. Went to all 4 and totally feel that I've had my fix

I heard from a few people who were at the Valdermort gig last night that a London arena gig announcement was very imminent. They hinted the possibility of today, but take it with a pinch., but the sources have never been wrong to date. Today or not, sounds like its coming

As the saying goes, theres a first time for everything.

To be fair he hadnt done a regional arena tour outside london for a long time, like said above you's had the 21 nights, someones always going to feel hard done by or having to travel. I think we'll see him again before the years out.

strawberrybubblegum said:

I'm not sure. He has left the UK...

what's that got to do with it?

I don't think he's currently in Austria, but he' going to play there!

Probably going home via Heathrow so might as well play something to pay for his hotel/flight!

At the end of the show in leeds he did say he'd be back real soon.

.

.

Yeah he said that at the end of the Manchester shows in Feb, hopefully true to his word again, just hope its an album tour next rather than Hits, wanna hear some new stuff.

.

.

He did say last time in manchester they were putting the album out them will be back but guess the album got put on the back burner for a bit

I may be completely wrong but i still have a hunch about hyde park for the end of July,theres enough demand in London due to them not having a show on part 2 plus the fans that have seen him recently like myself would also make the trip,could he finish off with one big summer show?

Agree, i think this will happen or a few nights at wembley arena, i am sure he will perform shows in london before Summer closes

Not to be a killjoy, but I really can't see why he would announce more UK shows when at least two of the shows on the tour ended up with tickets being given away for free in substantial quantities in the street to passers by.

The only show for which demand was high was Leeds.

Not saying this isnt true but where did you find this info out about it not selling out? Cant find any ref online to this other than your post, and as far as i saw the standing tickets went within minutes and the seating went next with only the 150 quid mark tickets remaining on sale for the people wishing to fork out an arm and a leg. If they didnt sell out.....,why after the first date was on sale for half hour.....manchester for instance.....was a 2nd date announced......surely this is only done when the first night is close to selling out. Iv not heard from one person who says they were just given a ticket for free on the street??

Llanishead in B'ham 19th thread...

"Monday came along and hadn't really hit a downer but I still had a look at what was going on with the Birmingham gig, then I came across a tweet saying that a dance company had inherited 80 tickets from the pormoters to fill the arena(!)

Couldn't help but think it was bullshit but I still enquired and after chatting to a lovely girl named becki, who put me on to her brother Paul to meet him at the arena; me and the fiancee made our way up after finishing work at 6 and after crapping myself for 30 minutes that it might've actually been bullshit, Paul showed up (like a knight in shining armour for me! )"

He went for free!!

he has had issues selling out venues for quite a while now actually
