0FIVE – Greatest Hits Tour 2013
Five is back – the boyband announced there first tour in 12 year and will tour the UK in November and December with 14 gigs in 14 cities!
After splitting and going their separate ways in 2001, the band reunited in 2013 performing on TV show ‘The Big Reunion’ and have joined the other bands from the 90’s including Liberty X, B* Witched and 911 on the UK arena tour. Five enjoyed remarkable success worldwide, particularly in the United Kingdom, throughout Europe, Asia, Australasia, North and South America. They split up on 27 September 2001, after selling over 20 million records worldwide, having 11 top ten singles and four top ten albums in the UK, selling out Arena tours, and picking up just about every achievable award including Brits and MTV.
Previously being a 5 piece, the news of the band reuniting as a 4 brought a sense of shock to the UK. However, the band has made it work with Scott Robinson, Ritchie Neville, Abz Love and Sean Conlon taking the 90’s sounds across the country. Due to personal reasons Jay chose not to reunite with the band. However Five have decided to continue as a four piece rather than finding a replacement.
Kicking off their first arena tour in 13 years the band are kicking off the November tour in Brighton and heading across the UK stopping off at Liverpool, Blackpool,Cardiff, Bournemouth, Leicester, Manchester, Glasgow, Oxford and back to where they performed their first show of 2013, London’s Hammersmith Apollo as well as a few other places along the way!
The band will be playing all classic tracks from their last album ‘Greatest Hits’ including favourites such as, Let’s Dance, Keep on Movin’, Slam Dunk (The funk) and of course, If you’re getting down! For those fans that missed them on the Big Reunion tour this is your chance to relive the 90’s with this special tour! 2013 is the new noughties! Tickets are on sale now!
