The organizers for the Spice Girls' reunion tour announced on Monday that tickets for their London show sold out in 38 seconds! 38 seconds?! As my mind tends to go off in odd directions at times, I started to think about other things that could happen in 38 seconds or less:1. Get served at a fast food drive-thru. Whether this happens or not, always check your order because in the immortal words of Leo Getz, "They fuck you at the drive thru!"
2. Read a novel from cover to cover (provided you are a disciple of Evelyn Wood)
3. Go to the top of the pyramid in the "Winner's Circle" ... that is if you were lucky enough to be paired with a celebrity like Billy Crystal.
Back to the Spice Girls. Since they were always more popular in Europe, I figured that their reunion tour would do well there... but I never expected anything like them selling out in 38 seconds. As a result of them selling out the December 15th show so fast, organizers added more London dates to the tour. It'll be interesting to see if "Girl Power" still resonates in the States once tickets go on sell for their U.S. concerts.

The sales in the states can only be enhanced by Mel B's (Scary Spice) stint on "Dancing With The Stars" and her "baby daddy drama" with Eddie Murphy.
