You’ve spelt “since their first single” wrang marra.

The Stones n U2 tkts are well ower £100. I cant see em selling out two neets at those prices in the NE. All the other bands mentioned apart from Fleetwood Mac couldn’t give two neets worth of tkts away. Got to be Sheehan.
GnR, Ian Brown, Kraftwerk, Metallica ffs!
A kiddipop festival thing or ToyDolls/Showbiz Kidz joint do mebbes?

Kraftwerk :lol:

Being serious, aren’t the spice girls touring?

They sold out 2 nights at the London stadium last year which holds a lot more than the SOL, and did 90000 in Dublin (I went over for it :lol: )

I doubt it would be TBH as they have been on the road for approaching 2 yrs now and have no dates confirmed past December. If they decided to keep going though and came back to the UK... They have the following to do 2 nights.

Another who would sell out 2 nights - Arctic monkeys, should they do some big stadium gigs to finish off their tour. Wouldn't surprise me too much, they did a couple of gigs at Finsbury park when they last toured in 2013/14 but haven't done anything in the UK outside of arenas this time. They also applied for a licence last year to do 4 nights in a park in Sheffield which would have held 40k last year, but fell through, so it may be something they are looking at.

Their tour dates go as far as march / April, so coming back to the UK to do some bigger gigs / festivals would be feasible.

GnR only did 2 UK dates & both in London. And the 2nd date was added later it wasnt in the original plan.

If there were 3 or 4 UK venues they wouldnt have had the 2nd London date.
 
At today’s ticket prices I reckon only a mainstream pop artist could sell out 2 nights up here, so someone like Ed Sheeran. Wouldn’t be my cup of tea but would be tremendous for the city and club.

Suppose it depends where else they're playing. 2 nights up north and 2 down south I reckon they'd manage. I don't think it's likely to be them anyway, so well probably never know :lol:
