Spandau Ballet have added an extra Birmingham date to their comeback tour due to public demand.

In addition to their first performance at Birmingham’s LG Arena on Saturday, October 24, 2009, the band have now announced a second date at the venue on Sunday, October 25, 2009.

Tickets for the new date go on sale at 9am on Friday April 3 and are priced from £37.50 – £60.00 plus booking and transaction fee.

“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.
