The must see concerts are expected to have many fans flocking to the arena with whispers of famous artists, Tyrese and Ginuwine also making a special guest appearance alongside Tank to form R&B supergroup TGT.
Tyrese, Ginuwine and Tank have all been close friends for over a decade and it is said to be Tank’s very first live UK performance.
Tickets for Friday’s concert are now sold out with the concert organiser, radio DJ Trevor Nelson sharing a funny picture on Joe’s Facebook page with the caption: ‘I wonder what Joe Thomas is thinking right about now since we told him the news on ticket sales?’.
News of the concerts have had many people buzzing across social media networking sites with one fan @Kagey87Bailey tweeting: ‘This line up is fire!’.
Singer, songwriter and producer, Rob Jones also paid respect to 112 on twitter saying: ‘paying homage to the ones that came before me, the great R&B Kings 112’.
Fans attending the concerts will be serenaded with songs from Joe’s new album, Doubleback: Evolution of R&B and tracks from TGT’s new album, 3 Kings.
R&B bands Jagged Edge, who are well-known for writing songs for artists like Usher and Toni Braxton are also set to perform their classic hits along with 112 – who split up but reunited again in 2012.
Although Friday’s concert tickets are rumoured to be sold out, tickets for Thursday’s date are still accessible from six ticket outlets, including Ticketmaster and the O2 website.
