Girls Aloud NOT ON TOUR NOW

[VoR]

Great news etc and no shade intended and I’m sure they’ve done the market research but isn’t that a slightly over ambitious itinerary? I’m not that familiar with their previous UK tour track record so maybe I’m speaking out of turn..

They were always a popular touring act I believe? They seemed to fill the larger venues more reliably than the Sugababes and the Saturdays, at any rate.

 

[dUb]

I suppose I would have expected them to hold off on announcing the additional dates in those few cities until they saw how the first ones sold, but I don't think it's overly ambitious

 

[Jark]

yeah they'll sell out these dates no complaints.

Nadine is really trying to outshine the others in the pics

They were a big touring act, much more than their album sales would let on. 32 dates for the Out of Control tour and 20 for TEN. All arenas apart from the one supporting their STU and WWNS

 

[Sheena]

They’ve even got a big O2 shaped space there at the end to announce more dates if they need them- and I wouldn’t be surprised if they do.

 

[Sheena]

They could easily manage a Glastonbury slot with that too…

 

[Rachey]

I think we're going to try and go to Birmingham as it's the only date we can do unless they add more!

 

[Nowoco]

Every one of those dates will be sold out in an hour.

 

[dUb]

Now THIS has popped up

 

[dUb]

Every one of those dates will be sold out in an hour.

I… doubt this

 

[supermassive]

They can't even sell out a thread on Moopy

 

[octophone]

Interesting that it's called "The Girls Aloud Show" - almost as if they don't quite feel like calling themselves Girls Aloud without Sarah.

 

[Jark]

omfg

 

[Rita]

ALL THE GEAR BUT NO IDEA.

 

[untilted]

So I’ve followed this on/off but can someone elaborate or confirm - are this lot legitimately friends with Nadine now or still “co-workers”?

 

[Kratz]

It feels like there has been a significant amount of progress (Cheryl and Nadine in particular seem to be on much better terms).

Huh?! There's literally GIRLS ALOUD in the name of the tour.

 

[Kratz]

Any idea of support acts?

Mae Muller would be a nice surprise

 

[octophone]

Huh?! There's literally GIRLS ALOUD in the name of the tour.

But there's a difference between Girls Aloud and "The Girls Aloud Show".

 

[octophone]

I initially read it as "Girls Aloud - The Show" (as in the song). But it clearly isn;t.

I think that would have worked better. Our Octy is clearly in the wrong job.

their artpop COULD mean ANYTHING

 

[Voodoo]

But there's a difference between Girls Aloud and "The Girls Aloud Show".

It isn't any different to The Cher Show.

 

[octophone]

It isn't any different to The Cher Show.

Most bands don't call their tour "The (insert name here) Show". Although, I can think of a few who should. Anal Cunt for one.

 

[lolly]

I agree with octy. 'The Girls Aloud Show' sounds like a musical production touring provincial theatres.

Sack the stylist!

but then again, maybe they're being asked to bring stuff from their own closets

The Girls Aloud Show does feature 4 people who entered Popstars the Rivals, but sadly not their one-time Corrie star bandmate

So ahead of the curve

 

[straightorbroken]

So happy that they'll be recognising the pop culture moments that are "walking primrose" and "take a walk on the wild side". What a blaze of glory.

 

[dUb]

Why did I have to Google “take a walk on the wild side girls aloud” to see what song it was in

 

[GNL]

I was listening to the greatest hits in preparation for the announcement of the worst kept secret in pop, and I was struck by how sorely missed Sarah's vox would be in the mix. She really gave the group a much needed bit of GRAVEL and WELLY (those are technical terms, yes).

 

[PercyPig]

KIMBA must be loving the thought of getting a few more lines to sing in 2024 that aren’t middle eights.

 

[straightorbroken]

Oh boy, I can't tell you how sad I feel
If this song has more lines for Kimba to steal

 

[GNL]

KIMBA must be loving the thought of getting a few more lines to sing in 2024 that aren’t middle eights.

And a thought is all it is. Nadine has already been through allocated them all to Nadine.

 

[straightorbroken]

The Nicola demo of On the Metro is quite the bitchy disco sister to Nadine's batshit Something New demo:





Leak the Sarah solos now please (plus the Richard X one)!
