(Monday October 01, 2007 01:52 PM) The Spice Girls' London comeback concert has sold out in just 38 seconds.
More than one million people in the UK registered for the December 15 show.
Those who successfully registered for the 02 Arena concert were sent an email or text message saying they could snap up their tickets.
Now three new London dates, on December 16 and 18 and January 2, have been added to the tour.
Tickets for the December 15 gig are already appearing on eBay, asking fans for as much as £750.
Scary, Sporty, Ginger, Posh, and Baby Spice launch their world tour in Vancouver, Canada on December 2.
They will also perform in cities including Los Angeles, Las Vegas, New York, San Jose, Shanghai, Madrid, Beijing and Cape Town.
Their concerts will be the first time the Spice Girls have been on stage together since Geri Halliwell quit in May 1998.
Bookmakers Ladbrokes are now offering odds of 1-4 that the Spice Girls will have a Number One single by the end of the year, and 3-1 that the group records this year's Christmas Number One.
Ladbrokes spokesman Nick Weinberg said: "The 38-second sell out proves that the girls are still very much in demand."

It proves that over a million people in the UK have NO musical taste whatsover, and are most probably deaf. The rest of us can go into hibernation until March

My workmate told me today that she bought six tickets! I laughed out loud as I thought she LIKED the spice girls... until she told me she intended to flog the lot on ebay. Smart move if you ask me - if people are daft enough to pay huge sums of money to see them why not make a few quid out of it?!!  |

Brian...the new Spice Girls single is called 'Headlines' (Not Head lice!)..
According to Geri Halliwell it's BRILLIANT!...
But then again, SHE would say that, wouldn't she?!..

Brian has hit the nail squarely on the head there!
Wonder why they reformed, after all their solo careers were going so well and... oh wait, no my mistake... what solo careers?!?!?!

| I don't really like Take That. And the Spice Girls are also not really producing something that I would dare to call music! |

I can't tell you how overjoyed I was, on hearing the news that 'Old Spice' have announced two dates at the M.E.N Arena...
Needless to say, I'll be first in the queue for tickets..
Some good news, however, 'Posh' has only been given four lines to sing, on the Emma Bunton penned single, Headlines.
We must be grateful for small mercies. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RViw73dI2Fw

LOL!......I recall near when the Girls first started they sang live on 'an evening with Elton John', Geri didn't seem to have a very good voice, the others were okay though, still, it's amazing what can done in a recording studio!
I would have quite liked to have seen them live, but I ain't payin' way over the odds, E-bay or no E-bay!
'Viva forever' was and still is my all time fave Spice song, strange video though!

Don't read this, Brian:
I am embarassed to admit that there are one or two Spice Songs that I like as well.
I like the songs, but I don't like them.

There is a support group for people like you. All you need to do is visit your doctor and he will refer you to the organisation who will arrange the treatment

These 'supports'?...I've seen them I think. Are they on the '2 become 1' rack?[}:), and called 'Spice Girdles'??
