St. George's Market in Belfast? We spent an hour there last year before the show at Kings Hall, and I didn't see a stage setup. It's an enclosed market with all sorts of interesting food and non edible wares. I can't see having a concert there, unless I missed something. If you go to Belfast, DO NOT miss the Continental Christmas market at City Hall, absolutely brilliant. Hopefully they'll have the ferris wheel again. We will be crossing the pond from Chicago for the show in London on the 18th at Brixton (pardon me, 02).

I'm getting a little weepy just thinking about seeing Philip on stage this year. James was awesome last year, but Mr. C. and my wife have both survived cancer recently, and the last time I saw Philip was in Chicago before his terrible diagnosis, dancing up a storm on stage. They are both healthy again, thank God, and I am so incredibly grateful that my healthy wife and I will able able to see healthy Philip on stage this year. That will be one of the best Christmas presents I receive in 2009.

Ticket face value £29.50, booking fee and transaction fee £7.75.
A fucking mind blowing 26.5% surcharge on a single ticket!
