Er didn't they already try and fail?

Ok Brian - go for it. Better start soon as they're already one year, 2 tours, 1 album, 3 singles, loads of tv shows and award shows ahead.

Get a move on...............

I used to like East17 in the original days but their attitude in recent years has put me off. i would have gone to their reunion show (just one that didnt sell out) but i thought u idiots so i didnt bother. they had a gig booked at my local nightclub but cancelled on the night - they just didnt turn up. would take that ever cancel a gig so unprofessionally?No.would take that ever call a song of theirs f*** that? No. Have Take that always been respectful? Yes. And that, Brian Harvey is why they are successful and why they will continue to be successful where as u guys wont!

Take That = professional, classy, brilliant (then and now).

East 17 = amateur, chavvy, finished.

They're probably hoping it'll do a 'Frankie Goes To Hollywood - Relax', get banned and go to number one.

Wrong! No-one cares nowadays and it's all been done before. :yawn:

Next!

This was hilarious yesterday they said "Brian must have been at the disco biscuits" before he rang the Sun to tell them all about this!
TT have just finished a 50 date world tour, East 17 couldn't even sell one small venue when they last came back.
Idea for you Brian beg Tony back and you might them be allowed to sing the songs he wrote

Just asked hubby Take that Comeback Concert or E17 Comeback concert. thought he'd go for E17 .. being an E17 lad himself .... but he grimaced and said definitely Take That. He's not a fan of either but knowing his feelings about Take That I'd say that E17 is a non starter lol

I quite liked E17 but without Tony they are nothing at all.

I've just decided that it must be a facetious play on Take That.

Good on them in that case!

Anyhow, Mr. Harvey cannot possibly be a worse singer than Mark Owen, or produce anything poorer than the appalling "Shine".

Mmmm I'm a TT fan and love Mark but I think Brian does have a better voice than Mark. However that said Mark's voice in Shine is great imo and the song is far from appalling!

My friend told me that E17 performed at her Student Union and were hideous - apparently just swearing continuously and spending the whole time slagging off Take That.

What I don't get is that they weren't as successful as TT the first time round - so when they jumped on TT's bandwagon of reforming, what made them think this time round would be any different.


The E17 reunion looked like a failure from the word go when Brian Harvey had to go on CD:UK and beg the other members to get in touch with him so they could give it another shot......

Is this East 17 or E17 we're talking about?

E17 were the dregs having another go another Tony left, weren't they?

Obviously the machete attack did a bit more damage than initially suspected...

If you believe that 'Shine' is a melodic, well-written and well-performed song, then you are either delusional or fairly accessible.

I'm 32 and out of curiosity I went to see them live a few months ago:

They performed F*ck That and to be honest it wasn't too bad.
