With tickets now at a premium for almost all of Rihanna's forthcoming stadium tour, which starts at the end of the month, promoters Live Nation and SJM have come up with some extra places, and they're located on stage...

Yes, you read that right, you will be on the stage - "Stage Pods" as they are called, which will be sunk into the side of the stage. So, how much do they cost, I hear you ask? Well, things like this don't come cheap, and they (gulp) cost, ermm, £150 for Nottingham, Newcastle and Sheffield, £175 for Birmingham, £200 for Manchester and Liverpool and £250 for London!

Still if you want to see Rihanna up close, getting "Loud", this may be your only opportunity. Stage Pod tickets are available for all dates with the exception of Belfast and Dublin.

Check the "Stage Pods" button, below for availability and note that they are "standing" tickets and that you are not permitted to take food and drink into the pods.

Meanwhile, the only venues on the tour with tickets available at face value (from around £39.50) are the O2 Arena in London (14th, 15th and 21st Nov and 1st, 20th, 21st and 22nd Dec) and the Capital FM Arena in Nottingham on 22nd November. Mind you, at this late stage, they are not exactly the best seats in the house. In fact, some of them are literally behind the stage. Really. Still at least you'll get to see Rihanna shaking her ass!
