Australia has truly been blessed recently with a slew of retro tours which exist purely to hyperstimulate our already supremely engorged nostalgia glands (It’s a real part of the brain. Look it up.)
Now we’re getting another spin on the nostalgia roundabout: Take That are coming to ‘Straya for the first time since 1995. The boy band, who churned out worldwide number ones like it was easy as fuckin’ pie, will be swinging through Oz in November, playing all their hits from the last 30 years.
But wait! There’s no Robbie Williams on this ride, folks. Unfortunate but true. He does other stuff now. Original members Gary Barlow, Howard Donald and Mark Owen are leading the charge in what is being described as a spectacular live show.
Oh well, immerse yourself in the soaring heights of Back For Good to help yourself swallow that particular bitter pill:
