Oh lord ! When Queen tribute machine will stop?
It will be interesting to see how these sell as they having a devil of a time trying to sell seats to those 5 additional 02 dates.
One thing in Birmingham's favor is that it's a smaller arena than the 02.

PrimeJiveUSA, Are you sure about those ticket sales at the O2? When I looked at this site, it says less than 1% of total tickets are available.

All the shows will sell out or at 95% fill by the time the concerts take place. This happens with pretty much everybody.
^ This.
It's a bitch of a venue to get to,right in the middle of Birmigham,last time I went their the final mile took my carer abot a hour to get there.Good size car park though,my advice is to get there very early.Part of me wishes I could go,as it's probably the last chance to see Brian and Roger.
I'm going to the Sunday concert - I'm looking forward to it. I can't imagine this going for ever now so this may be the last time I get to see Brian and Roger live.

two things:
1. Sunday will be a struggle to sell - isn't it Download Festival Weekend?
2. Arena Birmingham has terrible acoustics - the sound could suffer.

That's a secondary site. All that means is the second-hand inventory they have.
Yikes at the Australia dates. It doesn't look like they get close to filling them.

"Pretty much everybody" sells out or fills their shows to 95%?

Look at all the big bands and artists who play at large venues - they prove this.
Also, if you go to these venues you often can hear people or see people pleading to get tickets.
Also, in terms of the shows not selling out, people may have been reluctant getting tickets straight away in case they went somewhere else. Like what's happened here, weeks after first announcing any UK dates. I was reluctant getting tickets straight away for elsewhere in case they went somewhere more practical and they did.
