Ha! The Arena only holds about 11,000. Things arent that bad yet. Its been somewhat superseded by the larger 02 as the main indoor music venue in London.
London (uniquely in the world, I'd imagine) has three stadiums which hold 80,000 people or more - Twickenham, the new Wembley Stadium and (for now anyway), the Olympic Stadium
They'll play at least one show at Hyde Park plus a second gig somewhere else in London, Maybe at one of the above stadiums or maybe at the Olympic Park or Hyde park again.
If they're playing as part of the Barclaycard Festival then, like Glastonbury, they wont need their own stage. And I cant imagine them going to the expense of designing a stadium stage for just one stadium show. So maybe the second London show will also be a festival-style event.
I do think this actually bodes well for future concerts because if this was a 'farewell' tour, then that would mean that the European part of it consists of two arena and two outdoor shows in London and a festival in the south west of England. I cant imagine thats how they'd want to restrict themselves in Europe.
