The Big Reunion

Last night saw the finale of ITV2's The Big Reunion, a show charting the reunion of a selection of popular music groups from the 1990s and 2000s. The series, which began on 31st January, culminated in a 1½ hour concert special. I thought it was spectacular, and I'm very glad we've purchased tickets for a show on the tour!

Watching the acts live will be nostalgic if nothing else; although I'm a bit too young to remember the 90s first-hand, I bought both B*Witched albums a few years ago, and I'm familiar with 911's greatest hits from spending hours watching 90s boyband countdowns, in which 5ive also featured. 5ive was probably my first "favourite band", even though they split up when I was 5. On Sunday afternoons my mum would blast their Greatest Hits album while I danced around and sang along. My sister and I listened to the Atomic Kitten album "Right Now" regularly on our stereo; once I cried because we were told to turn it off! I actually remember the song "X" by Liberty X, despite it failing to reach the UK Top 40, and although I hadn't heard of Honeyz before the show, I think I will enjoy their live performance.

My excitement for the tour has already manifested itself in my B*Witched inspired nails:


Keavy even tweeted me about them!
