kate bush to tour

about time too, last toured in 1979

Shares a birthday with me.

Though 15 nights in the same place isn't really a tour, is it?

Yes - 15 nights at Hammersmith

Don't worry if you can't get tickets - there'll be plenty on ebay

I wonder if she would like to come on my Mongolian Rugby Tour

Zimmer-frame not good on rough ground.

I am willing to swap my soul for some tickets.
Help me out guys

" 15 nights in the same place isn't really a tour, is it ?"

Agree, it's not a tour it's a residency.

She was a great talent......but coming back after a 35-year absence (?)  Great for her if she pulls it off, not many singers or groups could come back after that long away.  And already talk that more shows might be added.  Amazing after she complained of exhaustion after her last tour in 1979 !

Wiki : (a bit sparse?)

Personal life

Bush is married to guitarist Dan McIntosh, and the couple have a son, Albert.[180] She is a former resident of Eltham, south east London.[181]
Bush moved to Devon in 2004[182] and was reported as still living there in April 2013.[183]

i thought for a minute when the BBC were showing Kate Bush's comeback that they were going to say she was dead. But instead they are advertising Kate Bush? Why this is news I don't know. The news should be Kate needs more cash.

I doubt very much that she needs the cash. I've seen one of her houses just outside Theale - very nice it is too!

She comes from a fairly wealthy family and having written and recorded almost her whole catalogue,
as an individual, she will have earnt a small fortune, annually, for the past 35 years.
Huge in Europe and particularly the Far East, she still sells bucketloads worldwide.

skint (nap)

Talented

Being skint is usually a good reason to start a tour.

Personal life

Bush is married to guitarist Dan McIntosh, and the couple have a son, Albert.[180]

She must be knocking on if she has a 180 year old son.

kennymann rubbing his hands as we type

Born in my home town, Welling, I think.

Front pages of The Guardian and The Times tomorrow

Skint? Absent for 35 years?
You lot confirm my assumption that this forum know feck all.
The whole thing is brilliant news for the touting websites.

I'd love to see Kate's bush

I concur barnie

What is the best way to get tickets now or as soon as poss? Don't want to be "chancing" with ebay, I want a couple in my pocket so I can relax. Novice with Booking Agencies etc., are they all rip off merchants?

Serious replies of help would be much appreciated people!

www eventim.co.uk tickets go on sale 9.30 AM this friday

get 1 for me, ta

Literally shaking with excitement

Did you get a ticket?

I'd made a deal with God

All 22 gigs sold out this morning 15 minutes after release.

scumbags putting up tickets for sale at 1500 plus hope they keep their promise that you will have to show i.d when you go to the concert showing that you paid for that ticket

incredible vocals. Makes Adelle and the like sound like karaoke merchants.

Good grief, I would be going

Good grief, I would be going

Good grief, I would be going

Good grief, I was thinking I'd get a few tickets nearer the time but not a chance would I pay that amount.

4x Tickets - 5th row back in the middl(ish) area of the circle.
(It's a pretty small arena/theatre - http://hammersmithapollo.s3.amazonaws.com/img/refurb5.jpg -
so any seat is going to be fine)

Better-half rolled her eyes, when I told her how much (£!), but I'm in rapture.

Can't wait. A lot of long-time fans seem to have missed out browsing the internet last night.
But other heartwarming posts of people planning to leave their countries borders, for the first ever time, etc.

I lost out...had a go at least

Although i got lucky in 1979....got lucky a lot in those days mind

saw joe cocker at hammersith,good venue not big,bloody touts though f uck it up 4 everybody

amazed at the massive demand for tickets after she has been away for 35 years.

despite trying to stop people buying tickets to re-sell, hard to beat the touts, tickets already on ebay for crazy prices.

winds me up and Ebay even have their own ticket agency now

I'd say the inability of promoters, agents and artists to use appropriately sized venues is the key to the problem rather than touts. So long as the mentality of 'it's better to sell out a 500 capacity months in advance than 95% fill a 3000 capacity venue' exists the problem will persist.

£7.50 'booking fee' - simple theft.

Moaning about £7:50 booking fee! I would have given my left testicle if I could've got a ticket in time at almost any price.

I shall advertise when my "het" bum is for sale!!!!!!!!!!

15 nights? how many was wacky jackie sposed to be doing again?...

Some people need to get out more!!

Cant understand all the fuss. I do hope the touts take a hit though.

They can see them comin' - nothing wrong with that!

Would shut the curtains if she was playing in the Garden  Gaaarrrbbage

^^^^^^
