Short story:

On their Get Weird tour, Little Mix play at Genting Arena (NEC), Birmingham, England, UK.

Full article:

Richard Griffith (manager, Little Mix) : Competitive is one of the key adjectives I’d use to describe our agent, John Giddings. He raced me down the M6. Little Mix had just played in the NEC in Birmingham, and we were both driving down the motorway, and I overtook him and he decided to turn it into a race. He wasn’t going to let me away with that. We tag-teamed it down the M6/M40 into London. It was quite funny really.

John Giddings : I didn’t know it was Richard. We both left Birmingham NEC and I just saw this car coming up behind me, so I let him go by me and thought, 'I’ll have a bit of fun.' So I overtook him and he re-overtook me, at like 120 mph. It was only when I got to the bottom of the M4 that I got a good look at him and realised who it was.
