Boyzone may reform

Well there might not be a Take That reunion on the cards - but, erm, Boyzone might be getting back together. Former Boyzoner-come-Corrie-star Keith Duffy has told the Daily Record that, if the fans demand it, the boy band may reform.

"We've not been together for almost five years and since our appearance on The Games, there's been a lot of stories about us reforming. We never really broke up. There was a bit of a war between members, which had been
exaggerated by the press but we all said 'fuck what happened, let's move forward and forget the bad times'. Since then there's been a lot of interest from promoters. This Christmas we've been offered a lot of money to perform. Although doing it for the money is the wrong reason, we aren't stupid. We would like to put closure on the band and have a farewell tour. But it would be a project, not a career."

On his falling out with Ronan Keating, Duffy continued: "I did have a clash with Ronan, but there is a fine line between love and hate. The easiest way is to get angry, but life is too short to hold a grudge and everyone has now reached the point where we want to move forward."

Other form boyzoner Shane Lynch confirmed his interest in a reunion project - though he added: " I'm not sure I want to ponce around on stage as a grown man. I think we'd all need to sit on stools and sing songs like five Val Doonicans in a row. We could hardly be called Boyzone anymore since we've all grown up. We'd need to change our name to something like Manzone but that sounds like a New York gay club."

Marty's band, Growing Old Disgracefully, can be found at: Disgraceful Music. His Cthulhu tales can be found at Temple of Dagon.
