Amazing amazing amazing! I'm desperate to see them live.
I know it's impossible to tell really but do we think this is going to sell out straight away?

I’ve been looking at seating capacities at the venues to try to get an idea of how popular the producers think this tour is going to be and also just out of personal interest.
Vicar Street, Dublin: 1,050
Brighton Centre: 4,500
Hammersmith Apollo, London: 3,632
SEC Armadillo, Glasgow: 3,000
Manchester Apollo: 3,500
Arena Birmingham: 15,800
The obvious odd-one-out is Birmingham, it seems like a completely different venue to all the rest. If they were going to do one larger venue I’d have thought London would have made sense. I assume they’re not going to try to sell that out! When I went to see Idina Menzel at Wembley Arena I think half of it was cordened off and not used so I guess it will be a similar case here. The other strange choice is the Dublin venue, just over a thousand seats seems ridiculous when they’re trying to satisfy the entirety of Ireland! That’s going to sell out quickly I’m sure.

I think it will be a slow burn but ultimately a sell out. I don't imagine prices will be too expensive. The Birmingham venue is a choice. Just after Glee or at the height of Glee I could see them honestly managing a full arena tour, but now, it's going to be interesting to see.

Meet and greet at Manchester £231.72 plus booking fee of £27.72 which is very expensive. Tier one £50 but showing sold out!

*Emmy Award Winner* Darren Criss, ta muchly. Not sure I'd have gone with that suit to be honest and it looks like he's been very slapdash with his dinner but hey ho.  |

Going to wait for general sale now, hope that doesn't sell out as quickly as the presale did...

(Maybe) they may have allowed time in their schedule for extra dates?

I hope so! I decided not to use my presale link this morning, thinking I'd have plenty of time. Why oh why! 😂😭

I don't think any dates are actually sold out? I know it says sold-out on the Presale but surely that's just an allocation of tickets?

I never realized there were so many fans of theirs still. I saw him on Broadway in How to Succeed he was fine but nothing I would go to a big venue for. Never saw Lea live. But would't this have worked better when they were in the public eye? Just puzzeling to me.

It's pretty much the same setlist as their previous Spring tour, they have added a couple new songs, notably Shallow from. A Star is Born.

Darren does a song by an artist from the city they are performing in each night, or at least he did back in the 1st leg.

I'm getting more and more excited for this as each day goes by. I think buying a tour ticket has awakened the long dormant Glee (and let's be honest, Darren Criss) fangirl in me! 😂 I know they're MEGA expensive but I almost wish I'd splurged for VIP tickets, just to get a pic, for old times same. Although my top price seat in Brum cost about one fifth of the price of the Gold VIP package, so yeah, I'll do without!

Indeed, I thought Lea Michelle and the whole Glee thing was SO 10 years ago.
Nothing surprises me anymore.

London is now officially “sold out” according to Lea’s instagram so I guess that means standing room also.
Just bumping this thread because I’m so very excited to be honest, come on Birmingham date hurry up!!
