Why would they not sell well? They can't even book such large venues in the states. Whenever they play here it's an event, with the 50th anniversary marketing strategy they're gonna sell well. At outdoor festival no matter who's the act at least 30k people always show up.
The only daring place booked it's the Manchester arena, it's huge and with a London show already scheduled that might be hard to sell out or fill up to a decent level. We'll see. In south Europe they're well received and these huge rock events are always highly successful across Italy, France and Spain.

Manchester on a Saturday will be bouncing. London mid week is the one that might not sell well...

It'll be alright dude I think it will sell well, but people are already likely to have booked summer holidays, not sure how it clashes with school term times, and it’s a real fucking bitch of a venue to get to. It’s possible they won’t sell it to capacity... |

Isn't there a tube station in front of the venue? London is always crowded and full of tourists and professionals who don't really get that many holidays. But now that they confirmed Glastonbury in June well..3 big dates in the UK sounds risky.

Unless a lot of Aerosmith fans got tickets for Glastonbury I think the shows will sell well. |

Swimming might be the best option |

Oh I was living in front of the O2 arena and I could see it from my tiny room's window. I was staying in the south area of Isle of Dogs, just by the river. Nostalgic.

Well that's a problem anywhere in the world tbh. O2 is IN TOWN. Usually most big venues are pretty far, especially here in Italy we have arenas that can be reached only by special bus services or railways. Just a few places can be reached easily with urban public transport. Shows in UK have usually strict curfews so I have never had issues getting back home. For people living outside of London it might be better to stay overnight. I mean it's London go out and have fun and eat at pret, oh God I miss those sandwiches!

I scored a ticket for Pearl Jam in Krakow on 13 July. Aerosmith play the day before. The Arena looks amazing! Like a giant Spaceship.
A great double gig

It'll be alright dude It didn't sell out last time they played there in 2010. I refused to pay the £95 for a floor ticket and got one from a resale site for £40 2 weeks before. I really think they will struggle to shift all the tickets if not priced appropriately this time. Even though I live just outside London, I might try for Manchester as the atmosphere will be electric. That said, even though it was not full, the o2 last time was incredible on the floor. |
