I would also say that the promotion for the live shows has mainly been through social media and I think the shows are selling really well just based off of that. There is nearly 9 months to go, so hopefully word will get out and I can see more sold out shows. Richard deserves to have this be a huge success. I love that he is doing this and I know the venues/locations outside of London are quite random, yet I am thrilled at the opportunity as never thought I would ever have the chance to see him live . I have been lucky to see Corrine Bailey Rae and Tori Amos this year. Next year is Richard Carpenter .
