Gold - Spandau Ballet to play Nou Camp



So... the world-famous arena that usually invites paying customers to witness the mercurial genius of Argentinian footballer Leo Messi, will soon invite paying customers to witness the mercurial genius (ahem) of 80's New Romantics Spandau Ballet singing 'Gold' and 'True' and other such high watermarks of popular music.

This stadium holds 120,000 people. Is this an as-yet-undocumented case of the 'foreigners love a British celebrity who is a bit rubbish' phenomenon; Spandau being to Spain what Norman Wisdom is to Albania? I hope so... that would be bloody marvellous for the Kemp brothers and big tall Tony Hadley.
