I just don't see them selling 20,000 tickets at arena prices unless they have some pretty amazing special guests announced beforehand. But they may well reduce the capacity (I think they can do this and have done before) and so technically they might "sell out".

Wonder if these guests will be Ian and Nina? Traci Lords at a long shot (and not her first )?

I think I'm right in saying there's no support but probably will be some special appearances, one hopes.

Are The The still alive and around? Could they also be a guest?
Chances that they'll also get BSP and The Horrors involved? That would be sweet.

This gig sounds amazing, I can't wait. This Christmas is going to be way more fun than usual!

The temptation to make a joke about a Richey guest appearance is only just under control.

I don't think that was what I was implying at all. You can feel however you wish.

Whether it's that great an idea for a band to play a venue that at full capacity they'll probably just over half fill is kind of more up for debate. (And I would love to be proved wrong on that count, but I don't see it.)

Haven't heard them mentioned in music news since the '90s, though I'm sure a reunion tour will happen sometime if they are inactive.

okay, the flight prices are not that bad. I'm only worried I'd stuck in the Isles due to weather, if it's as bad as last winter.
