Well, I purchased three tickets to the November 24 concert! Front Stalls, seats L14 through 16. Maybe I'll get there yet. But for right now, it's time to go to bed; it's almost 2:30 a.m. 'Night!Cheri

I hope you are right Cheri- and there is a long time to go. But the rest of the tkts will have be sold to the more casual punter. On a typical tour, would Steve expect to sell 600-700 tks in Birmingham (over and above the mainstream following)? I don't know.
I hope perhaps a targeted marketing ad, placed in a music mag (and not the Mail on Sunday?) might do a good job of reaching the potential buyers. I hope the marketing is specific about the fact that this is a very SPECIAL show and not just a SH&CR "in concert". Of course, there are quite a number of performers out there doing their classic album in a similar fashion (Big Country doing "The Crossing" for example)and it will need to grab the attention of those who were there at the time (those album covers are so evocative of the era.....so lets see them in the ads Steve?).
I wonder what it will take to see Steve take something like this on the road? If he is going to advertise this one-off, surely a short tour could be advertised at the same time? (Again, its about fixed costs being spread and recovered effectively). I would hope he puts together a short set of dates in say Edinburgh, London and maybe Manchester/Liverpool and then advertise the tour in the music mags?
