    I was really surprised by this. I was like: "WOW! THAT LONG???" To be fair, I only really know her for her making a guest appearance on Don't Give Up by Peter Gabriel.

    Yes, I saw that on her website. It's really expensive since once you convert 145 pounds in Canadian dollar, it is at least $267 CAD EACH.

    i doub't it's about money since she's one of most successful artists in the UK. successful enough to not have to tour so far..
    in interviews from a few years ago she said she would like to tour before she gets too old..

    Wtf? I had tickets in my cart, and all of a sudden they were gone?! 80 000 tickets sold out in 15 mins. Well, almost there are still some really expensive ones left, and I don't want them...

    I like the Never Forever album deep tracks like Blow Away, not into Lionhart, or her debut but Hounds of Love is an obvious classic and the sensual world has some nice tunes also.

    It was fantastic. It starts off as a regular rock concert and then combines elements of film and theatre to bring the concept pieces of the ninth wave and the second half of aerial to life. It was beautiful. Her voice sounds great.
    Her son is part of the show as well and has a solo song that kate probably wrote just for the show.
    She also sang running up that hill, hounds of love and king of the mountain Among other songs.
    The final song is cloudbusting. Might be the best show i've been to. You could tell a lot of work went into it. Kate seemed to be enjoying herself as well :)

    I've listened to audience recordings of the first couple of shows and they sound great! I'd can't wait for an official release.

    Now the record holder for women in the charts with 8 albums back on - Next to the Beatles and Elvis. Nice! Now discovering The Dreaming, a classic for sure.
