The White Stripes will return to the UK again later this year for an arena-sized tour.

The band - who I thought were one of the world's biggest, only for the office to shoot that theory down in flames - will play the following dates this winter:

October
24 Glasgow SECC
25 Manchester MEN Arena
26 Newcastle Metro Arena
28 Birmingham NEC
29 Cardiff International Arena
31 Sheffield Hallam Arena

November
1 Nottingham Arena
2 London O2 Arena

Tickets will go on sale this Friday the 13th of July at 12pm. You'll find them here, except if you're unlucky enough to live in Glasgow - yours are here.

I'd back you up on that

These dates (in big places) will sell out in no time. People probably only associate crap bands like u2 and the chilli bobbins as being big. They are not that massive but I would say they are in the next level of big bands.

Bring on Birmingham, nottingham and the dome.

These days

everything sells out in no time at all. Actually, there's got to be a forum discussion topic in this somewhere... why is it that as demand for gigs has increased, more and more venues are closing down. I was at the Scala last night, and it was completely sold out - there were even touts, which you don't often see at venues of that size.
