    I loved the Shepherd's Bush show in 2009 :shock: :mrgreen: around 30 songs.

    I saw him several times (I think 5) with the backing band (the only bad one for me was Scala) so will be interested to see the acoustic solo show.
    So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?

    I enjoyed Shepherds Bush a lot, just not the Scream songs. We went for a tab when they came on!

    Oh god, that Scala gig... still mentally scarred from that! I'm so glad he didn't carry down that path for too long. I can't believe the Shepherds Bush gig was just a week or so after, it was like a completely different artist, and I rate it as one of the best gigs I've been to in the last 10 years.

    The only good thing about the Scala gig was the support act who had been drafted in last minute. He was good value :lol:

    I skipped the Scala gig when I found out it would be Scream heavy!

    Anyone got the email yet?

    No debate is needed, this songbook tour is going to wipe the floor with that band he had. I've heard tens and tens of bootlegs and it's just such an amazing show. Just hope to hit up as many as I can to hear as many diff songs.

    Scream acoustic is actually pretty darn good. Everyone should go see him if you have the chance. I think Chris is in such a good place right now, and it really comes across when you see him and hear him talk. It's so wonderful to experience.

    Not to mention that he is so talented, his voice has never sounded better in my opinion. And he looks hot in jeans :lol::lol:

    Ticket prices range from £29.50 to £35, for the London show at least. I expect the other shows will be similar. I'm pretty bummed out the London date couldn't have been the 17th, but that's being entirely selfish! :lol:

    Enjoy all you who will be going, I bet it will be a great show! :D

    Scream itself is bloody great live. The bit at the end when he is like "I used to think silence is golden" is just brilliant!

    Nice, I only managed to snag row T. Did you buy from the 1st or 3rd button?

    Also, I hate these stacked tour announcements. I'm sure now that I have London tickets, he'll announce a date in Norway later.

    Thanks for the presale password; im on of the ones who didnt get an email!

    Anyway, just got two tickets for the Lowry fairly easily.

    Very reasonable priced too.

    It's actually payday for me today, which is a much better time to buy tickets than a week before Christmas! :cry:
