All Saints announce first full headline tour in 15 years
Following the release of their comeback single ‘One Strike’ and the announcement of their first album in a decade, Red Flag, All Saints have just dropped another welcome surprise for fans: they’re going on tour in October.
Expect plenty of nostalgia as the girls throw it back with ‘Pure Shores’ and ‘Never Ever’ and with a whole new album’s worth of material to perform, ‘The Red Flag Tour’ will visit major cities in the UK including; London, Newcastle, Birmingham and Glasgow.
“We couldn’t be more excited to be heading out on the road to perform across the UK this October,” All Saints said. “Playing live is our favourite thing to do as a band and we can’t wait to perform all our hits plus some new tracks from Red Flag.
“It’s incredible to think our last proper tour was over 15 years ago. So we’ve been waiting for this moment for a very long time. From the feedback we’ve read online it seems like A LOT of our fans have been anxiously waiting too. We can’t wait to get out there and see everyone.”
The tour begins Thursday 6th October in Newcastle and ends Tuesday 18th October in Norwich – but the announcement isn’t the only All Saints-related bombshell to be dropped on us today: Mel B has just revealed that she once beat up member Shaznay Lewis in a toilet during the girls’ 90s heyday.
