Spandau Ballet’s comeback Reformation Tour continues to add dates due to public demand.  In addition to their first performance at LG Arena on Saturday 24 October, the band have now announced a second date in Birmingham on Sunday 25 October 2009 (new date).

Tickets are priced from £37.50 - £60.00 plus booking and transaction fee and can be purchased on-line at theticketfactory.com or by calling The Ticket Factory on
0844 338 8000.

“It just keeps getting better and better,” says Spandau’s Tony Hadley, of the reaction to the tour, “We hoped that we would be welcome back but this is beyond our expectations.  We are particularly pleased to add Liverpool to the schedule.  I seem to remember that we played the Liverpool Empire back in 1982 and it was the first time we noticed girls screaming at us.  It was our first taste of true pop stardom!”

Spandau Ballet’s Reformation Tour brings one of Britain’s seminal pop groups back together for the first time in 20 years. The trip around UK and Irish arenas from October 2009 is the first leg of a World Tour.

From their synth pop and dance pioneering early singles To Cut A Long Story Short and Chant No. 1 (I Don’t Need This Pressure On), to the globe trotting smashes True and Gold, Spandau will be playing the hits once again.  With 25 million record sales, 6 multi-platinum albums and 23 hit singles to choose from, this is one of the most eagerly awaited reformations of the decade.

Emerging from Soho’s ultra hip Blitz Club in 1979 during another economic depression, Spandau formed at school in North London before becoming the hottest unsigned band on the planet.  From underground, fashion and music obsessed working class Londoners, to global superstars, the band set the pace, the styles and the sound of the 1980s.

Not only did their albums sell by the millions, but their look and style impacted on the fashion world and beyond.  They created their own style, combining creativity with entrepreneurship and the ‘can do’ spirit of early 80s youth at a time of crisis and upheaval eerily reminiscent of 2009.  Spandau Ballet are both commercially and culturally enormous.
