Nick said no to me, but other members say Sean and James pretty much confirmed it.

I can have a go at asking Katie from Enst24 again, but i would rather not as she is a loud thing that spits when she talks to you...

Cardiff CIA would be a safe bet I think. Normally to play to a Welsh audience.

Yuck.

Sean said that the Greatest Hits probably wouldn't be out until 2012. I believe the tour is unrelated to it.

I wonder. I think they might struggle to get the NEC (unless they reduce the capacity). I'd say NIA more likely. Which would be a shame for two reasons:

a) it's a shit venue
b) it's MUCH easier to get to the NEC

The Conversation i had with Kate stated: Indigo2, Wembley Arena and Earls Crt 2, Earls Crt 2 and Wembley sound unlikely though, over 12,500 Capacity.

Would cry if it was Earls Court. It's my least favourite venue. Unlikely they would fill even half of it though...? And Indigo2 is a nightclub, that makes little sense.

Edit: Where's Lovesean4ever when you need her!?

Everyone seemed to be of the opinion that they couldn't sell out an arena tour even with a Greatest Hits album, so how's it going to work on what is effectively a gap year for them?

Yes, Ally Pally is like 20,000, so that to me is Bullshit, even U2 couldn't fill 20k surely??

Then Again Al Pal is such a nce venue...
