El día después
Este es el artículo que publicó El País el día después del Primavera Pop. Me compré el periódico para ir leyendo algo en el bus de vuelta a casa y según paso la página y me encuentro con esa foto, se me saltaron las lágrimas. Ahora está pegado en el lateral de mi estantería y hoy lo he despegado para que lo leáis si no lo hicisteis en su momento. La calidad no es muy buena pq es una foto :S

Boy band magic in aid of charity
NEVER 4Get, the south's hottest tribute to the most successful boy band ever, have teamed up with Hampshire Autistic Society to bring you a night of Take That magic.
In a bid to boost the charity's coffers they will be delivering a fully choreographed show including all of the boys' biggest hits.
You can spend the night with them at Posh Indian Restaurant, Queensway, Southampton on Friday, April 25. The performance will be followed by a disco, and tickets include a three-course buffet-style meal.
● For tickets priced £22 e-mail gemma.harvey@has.org.uk.
Tribute act relight the fire
They may not be the real deal, but a boisterous capacity crowd at Wolverhampton’s Goodyear Pavilion screamed nonetheless when a Take That tribute band stepped out on to the stage.
The audience, comprising mostly of women and a few husbands, danced and sang along as foursome Take That and Party performed some of the boy band’s biggest hits. As the ladies abandoned their tables and sometimes their shoes to take to the dancefloor, no-one seemed to care that it wasn’t the real Gary, Jason, Mark and Howard.
The Black Country based tribute act also perform as Westlife and Boyzone but say taking to the stage as Take That takes up around 70 per cent of their work, which can see them performing anything between three and five gigs a week across the nation.
The current line-up of Lee Aldridge, 22, from Blackheath, Phil Richards, 25, and James Catalano, 26, both from Coseley, and Robert Glenn, aged 27, from Kings Norton, formed eight months ago.
And with managing other acts such as a Spice Girls tribute, music is a full-time career.
James won through to the last 100 of the TV reality show Popstars in 2001 and also beat off thousands to appear on the X Factor where he made it through to the final 14 bands on the series before last with bandmate Robert. James said: “We got together shortly after Take That successfully reformed and it was heaven sent for us – we think they are a great band and are by far the most popular act we get booked for.”
Elaine Roberts, aged 42, from Codsall, went to the show for her friend Karen Oare’s birthday.
She said: “People like coming along to tribute shows because you know all the words to the songs and so everyone can get involved.”
Shiona Connolly, aged 34, from Wednesfield, went with some of her old schoolfriends and had a great time.
Karen Moss, aged 27, from Penn, added: “Seeing a band can be quite expensive and although these aren’t the real thing, I thought they were pretty good and decent singers so you can have a good night out for a lot less.”
Stephanie Corrigan, aged 31, from Pendeford, said: “It was a good night out and the chance to get together with friends rather than do something like clubbing.”

A las 9 h. en el bibliometro de Moncloa
30 de marzo de 2007
Gracias a los 40 Principales por traer a Take That en concierto por primera vez.
Gracias a Take That por darnos la oportunidad de conocerlos en la firma de discos del Bercial.
Gracias a Jessi y a Vicky por quedar aquel día conmigo a través del foro a las 9 h. en el bibliometro de Moncloa para ir juntas a Getafe.
Gracias a Sara y a Vane por aparecer allí de improviso.
Gracias a Ana por estar delante nuestro en la cola y unirse a nosotras en esas 10 horas de espera.
Gracias a Menchu por estar también allí delante nuestro y a mí por haberla reconocido por la foto que tenía en el messenger aquella noche de vísperas que nos tiramos hablando hasta la 1 am. Graciás también por el pisotón que le dio a Jessi, nos sirvió para romper el hielo xD
Gracias a Sagui por unirse también a nuestra acampada callejera.
Gracias a Nieves por no encontrar a la persona con la que había quedado y acoplarse al grupo de Menchu (te nos colaste y nos dimos cuenta ;)).
Gracias a todas las demás que estuvieron allí por aquel día inolvidable.
Remember:
· Vamos al metro y nos montamos, salimos, lo perdemos y nos volvemos a montar.
· Llegamos al Bercial y oímos desde la salida de la estación "Mancunian Way"
· ¡Somo las primeras! Ah, no, la cola empieza ahí. Bueno, pues nos hacemos una foto con el stand mientras lo montan.
. Hace frío, hacemos turnos para entrar al Corte Inglés y nos hacemos fotos con el cartel. También compramos provisiones saludables: cerveza, donuts, patatas, sandwiches, etc.
· Compramos 4 naranjas, escribimos nuestros números de teléfono en ellas y se las regalamos a Jason. Seguimos esperando su llamada.
· Quedan un par de horas, la gente se levanta corre, se sienta, se vuelve a levantar, nervios...
· Furgonetas, gente corriendo, gente corriendo de vuelta...
· Su subida al stand.
· Pero dos, ¿no?, May I steal you two kisses, I love you Jason...
· La foto de Vicky.
· ¡Su primer concierto en España!
Un gran día :)

Beautiful World Tour production
On many levels, the Kim Gavin-produced Beautiful World tour is a very different experience for Take That and their adoring fans. Last year's The Ultimate Tour was essentially a re-branding exercise with the boys back in town to remind their worshippers of their former glories.

Take That Members Sad Over Williams Split
Gary Barlow has said that he and the rest of the members of Take That are saddened over the news that Robbie Williams has split from his wife and send him their best wishes.
"To be honest" said chubby Barlow "I didn't even know he was married, but when my wife read me the news this morning I still felt sad for the guy. He's having a real bad run of luck lately. I know I speak for all the lads when I say we wish him well."
Jason Orange, a dancer with the band passed on this message to Williams "Hey man, just bummed out for you, hope you don't do anything crazy."
Davy Jones lookalike Mark Owens said "Chin up mucker. There are plenty more fish in the sea. Not that a fish will provide love, support and comfort, but there are loads of them."
The other member of Take That, the one who's name escapes me said "I read the news. What annoys me is that Robbie never mentioned his Mork and Mindy gig. I loved Mrs Doubtfire - I am surprised that I never recognized him - but then again his own kids didn't."

All about Brits25: Robbie tricked!
David and Matt presented the award for best song to Robbie Williams at the Brit Awards in 2003, dressed his Rock Profile-style chums Howard Donald and Gary Barlow.
The awards were broadcast on 10th February 2005 on ITV1
Gary didn't mind who won so long as it wasn't Robbie Williams.
Gary told Robbie that he had made him "very very ill". Fan fact - this was a reference to the first "Take That" rock profile, which itself was a reference to Blue Tulip Rose Read (Mike Read's stalker).
Eventually, Howard managed to drag Gary away while Robbie made his speech.
Later, David could be seen with his friend Denise Van Outen, in the audience dancing to "Angels".
He collected Best Song of the Last 25 Years for Angels, which he later sang with Joss Stone.
And on stage he camped it up, saying: “I’d like to thank my boyfriend Jake Shears from Scissor Sisters.” Link

Rock Profile Special (2000): Gary y Howard
New Year Special (PlayUK 2001). Gary "Beefcake" Barlow and Howard "Donald" Duck introduce Rock Profile's New Year Special and reveal the Hits, Misses and Maybes of 2000. Including an exclusive remix of the Casualty theme tune. Who let that duck in here?
Basicamente Rock Profile era un programa en el que los dos actores de Little Britain (en el que también salió Robbie en uno de los sketchs vestido de mujer) se caracterizan de personajes famosos de la música y hacen un programa de humor,musica y demás. Una especia de "testimonios" como los de la hora chanante,a la inglesa.
Los personajes no están tan conseguidos a nivel de caracterización como los de star stories, por ejemplo, pero es que la finalidad del programa es diferente.
Después de mucho buscar, aquí están!

¿Quieres tener en tu casa los armarios de Gary o Howard?
"Interiors" es una empresa de diseño de interiores que dice tener entre sus clientes a Gary y Howard.

Robbie Williams is a wok star
ROBBIE WILLIAMS is having a rare old time on strike from the gruelling slog of being a pop star.
The beardy pop nob, in a teenage-style huff with his record label, has been filling his time with private cooking lessons.
A pal said: “He has an urge to host his own cookery show and bring out a book with it. The problem is, Robbie isn’t exactly the healthiest eater on the planet. Who needs lessons in how to cook burgers and chips? That’s about all he’s interested in.”
