    Now up to 148 :)

    Making quite good progress at the moment... I was expecting it to do nothing really. But maybe they will get a post album hit out of this

    That's good it's edging up the charts. I hear it on the radio at work all the time and I think it's definitely their best single so far. I hope it goes Top 10 for them again. Wonder when we will know if there is a remix EP? I still play the Cutmore Remix of Carry You and 7th Heaven Remix of Beautiful Life far more than the originals!

    Slightly quiet on here....

    Just back from seeing the boys in Cardiff. Really enjoyed the show. It's great that they're all strong enough singers that they all get to do there own solo parts. I did feel slightly too old to be there though :blush:

    My favourite group photo that I took... https://twitter.com/Pamela9322/status/412366086546288641

    I'm going to feel the same. And I'm a guy.

    Glad you had a great time :).

    It was alright once they were on stage, it was just during the support acts I felt a bit out of place. Where are you seeing them?

    I've not been able to find anyone to go with so I'm selling my 2 tickets £260 (£130 each) or nearest offer. They're meet and greet tickets and are in row E in the front stalls so it's a good view.

    Hope 2014 is a good year for them. I'm really looking forward to their fragrance.

    They have a fragrance??? Yay! :D

    As much as I love them, all of there promotion seems to be going towards merchandise rather than music. On a merchandise level they seem to have almost as much available as 1D (they're definitely heading that way) but when it comes to music they've only had one 'alright' album. They need to concentrate on getting a decent second album together to build there fan-base. I'm pretty sure that merchandise isn't what gains fans!

    I'm still excited by the fragrance though!

    Yeah, they've only mentioned it in one or two interviews, along with the dolls, but this was before their album came out so I'm not sure if it's still happening. I'd rather have the fragrance than the dolls.

    Edit: Just watched another recent interview and it looks like they're still going ahead. Nothing to worry about.

    Duvets and dolls! They are doing very well on the merchandise front. Do you know if they are selling the dolls in shops or just online? The George and JJ ones look so like them! :)

    I thought that Jaymi's and George's were pretty convincing.

    They are doing a festival here in Portugal.

    It's the second time they come to Lisbon, having supported Selena Gomez in her concert here, which is kind of odd. They do appear to have a fanbase here, but internet-only. I regularly listen to hit radio stations and don't think their songs have any radio airplay at all.

    It seems to be a festival for high school girls, on spring break. Emblem3 are the only other international artist announced.

    Nah, that's why I'd rather the fragrance came out first instead. I don't know what I'd do with the dolls...apart from make them have sex. LOL.

    I think it's also the anniversary of the first X Factor tour date?
