On this day, 18 December 1998, Irish band The Corrs played Cardiff International Arena on their Talk On Corners World Tour. Opening act was Dakota Moon.

Beginning in November 1997, the tour supported the band's second studio album, Talk on Corners. To date, it is their longest tour, with over 150 dates across Europe, Asia, Australia, New Zealand, and North America. The tour began with the band performing in theatres and nightclubs and, as the record’s success grew, progressed to arenas and amphitheatres, along with the group’s usual appearances at a variety of international music festivals.

After breaking the UK music scene, the band set out to build upon this success in the US and Canada, where that leg of the tour commenced in October 1998. During their stop in Chicago, the band shot the music video for "So Young".

In December, the band set off on a more ambitious UK/European tour, selling out a five-night run at Wembley Arena, as well as selling out a majority of the other dates on the tour. In March 1999, the band toured North America as supporting act for The Rolling Stones as part of their No Security Tour. In July 1999, the band set off on a summer festival tour as they did the previous July (1998).
