GEORGE MICHAEL - MICHAEL ADDS EXTRA CONCERT DATES

LATEST: GEORGE MICHAEL has added three extra UK concert dates to his eagerly awaited greatest hits tour after 40,000 tickets for his Wembley Arena gig sold out in two hours yesterday (23APR06). The FAITH hitmaker announced two new dates at London's Earl's Court at midday yesterday after the first tickets vanished, and went on to add a third date several hours later when Earl's Court also sold out. BOBBY MARSHALL, of concert promoter MARSHALL ARTS Ltd says, "It has sold fantastically well. In fact this has been the fastest sale of tickets in the 30 years that we have been promoting shows." The tour is called 25 Live and is Michael's first European circuit in 15 years. It kicks off in Madrid, Spain on 27 September (06) and will reach the UK in late November.
