Re: People they come together, people they fall apart
Victoria Beckham is taking legal action to halt a proposed Spice Girls reunion tour in which only 3 of the 5 band members take part. Victoria herself is one of the 2 not to be involved, and apparently expressed no issues with them singing their own solo material, but doing Spice Girls stuff would be a bit sad.
Rare to find artistic integrity fighting commercial imperative. Even rarer to come from Posh Spice.

Things not going too swimmingly with this, as they've now cancelled several of these dates:misery guts wrote:^^^The Bros reunion gig sold out so quickly, that they're turning it into a tour as well:
Bros reunion expands to full UK tourThey said they would play London's O2 arena on 19 August 2017 - the anniversary of their last ever gig, at Wembley Stadium in 1989.
The show sold out "in seven seconds" on Friday morning, said promoters.
As a result, six further dates have been added, in Manchester, Birmingham, Nottingham, Newcastle and Glasgow, along with a second night at the O2.
Or maybe prices were too high, and demand too low?Due to logistical circumstances beyond their control, it is with sincere regret that Bros have been forced to cancel four dates on their forthcoming UK tour. Matt and Luke Goss apologise to their fans for any disappointment.
"Concerts set for Nottingham August 23, Birmingham August 25, Newcastle August 26, and Glasgow August 27, will now not take place.

The Bros reunion concerts mentioned above happened this week, and went fairly well by all accounts

Re: People they come together, people they fall apart
The Spice Girls are getting back together (again):

So who knows whether that means another tour, or a record, or both.In a statement released later on Friday, the group said: "We have enjoyed a wonderful afternoon catching up and reminiscing about the amazing times we have spent together.
"We are always overwhelmed at how much interest there is across the whole world for The Spice Girls.
"We all agree that there are many exciting possibilities that will once again embrace the original essence of The Spice Girls, while reinforcing our message of female empowerment for future generations."

Fifth Harmony are splitting up. I would have thought Camila Cabello leaving was the beginning of the end. They never made much impression in their short career over here.

Re: People they come together, people they fall apart
Irish boyband of yore, Boyzone, are to split for good:
One last album and tour first, though
Given they had several years hiatus, and their previous reformation was rather ruined when Stephen Gately sadly died, it's somewhat less than surprising that they're going their separate ways again.

Re: People they come together, people they fall apart
Better news on the Irish front, though: Westlife are reuniting after a mere 6 years apart and several tiresome solo careers, because next year will mark their 20th anniversary. But Brian McFadden will not be returning for the full "original line-up" magic.

But only with 4 of the 5
The Spice Girls are to announce their first tour for a decade - but Victoria Beckham won't be taking part.

Re: People they come together, people they fall apart
Brummie glam legends Slade have split (again). The two remaining original band members, Dave Hill and Don Powell, have gone their separate ways (after Hill sent Powell an e-mail telling him he was out). A peeved Powell plans to launch his own version of the band. The other 2 original members, Noddy Holder & Jim Lea, left in 1992.

Re: People they come together, people they fall apart
They're reforming after 7 years for an arena tour:misery guts wrote:This week, JLS joined the ranks of those calling it a day. Despite a pretty successful run in the past 4-5 years since they finished 2nd on the UK version of The X Factor, they're using the end of their 5 album deal as a cue to go their separate ways. Such bands tend not to sustain a serious longevity without a good reason, and the various members had dallied with solo work already anyway.

As "Beat Again" was their first big success, then at least they can fall back on the "again" part now.

Re: People they come together, people they fall apart
Flavor Flav has been kicked out of Public Enemy after 35 years. A row about a gig in support of Bernie Sanders seems to have been the tipping point, though Chuck claims it was the "last straw" rather than being a big deal on its own. Flav was not impressed.

Robbie rejoined his old pals last week for a special stream-via-lockdown gig. However the elusive Jason did not participate.misery guts wrote:There are rumours that Robbie Williams will be re-invited to work with Take That! again soon in view of their 25th anniversary. The stories have come from TT though, so might well be just wishful thinking.

Re: People they come together, people they fall apart
British boyband McFly are back together with a new record deal. They had a few number ones in the 2000s, but went into hiatus in the 2010s as various members pursued various projects. There was a short-lived crossover with fellow boyband Busted. But now they're back as themselves.

Jesy Nelson has left Little Mix, after a number of recent problems. They were formed as Rhythmix to win the UK version of The X Factor in 2008, though they had to change their name quite quickly as someone else already had the rights to it.

The Wanted are to reform, as band-mate Tom Parker's health battle continues:misery guts wrote:British boyband The Wanted are apparently going on hiatus in the near future, after the mis-fires of their most recent album (which is a shame - despite rubbish like 'Walks Like Rihanna', they did show signs of trying to broaden their palette a bit). That they were so overtaken by One Direction probably didn't help, either.

The chart-topping boy band have announced their return, a greatest hits album, a new single and a live charity gig.

Re: People they come together, people they fall apart
Long-term indie rockers The Posies have split, following accusations against certain band members.
On the other hand, P-Square, a duo of twins, have reunited for their 40th birthday, having split in 2017.

Re: People they come together, people they fall apart
British hip-hop act N-Dubz are reforming, after an 11 year break. They scored one number one in their first run, but band members like Dappy and Tulisa became more talked about outside of music.

Lighthouse Family went from festival headliners to suddenly splitting before the event.
