Last week, the Spice Girls made their long-awaited comeback, with a UK wide tour.
It serves as the iconic girl group’s first tour together, barring Victoria Beckham, in over 11 years.
However, fans were left less than impressed with the grand return, describing how sound issues ruined the reunion tour for a second time.
@spicegirls you don’t ever come to Cardiff and rip off people again. You should publicly apologise, and reimburse the fans who were affected by the sound issues. It was lazy and fraudulent not to fix the sound issues after the gig in Ireland went so badly.
Apologise now!

The second date of the comeback tour saw the group hit Cardiff’s Principality Stadium on Monday evening, where they received a mixed response from fans who claimed sound issues meant they were unable to properly hear the songs.
Left the Cardiff gig early. Really disappointed as couldn’t hear a word. Was really looking forward to it but left feeling it was a a bit lame #spicegirls

The complaints are not standalone, with the Spice Girl’s opening show at Dublin’s Croke Park on Friday seeing fans not only air grievances online, but walk out of the performance.
In response, Mel B vowed that the issues would be fixed and sound “much, much better” in time for the second date – although that didn’t stop fans asking for a refund.
What we really really want
A fucking Refund.

It was a reunion , but without the spice.— Edward Aitken (@EdwardAitken1) May 28, 2019
The second-date has received a mixed response online, with a split of Cardiff concert-goers demanding their money back to those describing the group as “incredible”.
