Ricky Ross says of the two differing sets of dates, "I love the idea that a circus coming to town is a temporary existence, a little bit of magic suddenly appears in the middle of a town or a village and then it goes away. It's very similar to what you do live. The live experience is so ephemeral, at the end of a show people lose all their inhibitions, and then it's over. You have to be there. That's what's magical about it."
"There will be two different shows, we are curating a show that changes and evolves, pulling out little surprises every now and again. The theatres are more intimate and give us a chance to bring out one or two things that we wouldn"t do in the arenas. They give us a chance to play songs from the new album and songs from other albums that we have never played before. And we have some amazing nights at the big shows in the arenas, we suit the show to the place we're playing and our mantra is "we want people to have the best night of their lives". Every night has got to be brilliant."
