The Big Reunion snubs girl groups in favour of boy band only tour

In contrast to the excitement of last year, this time around I will not be attending any shows on the Big Reunion Tour, because the powers that be have decided that the groups Eternal and Girl Thing are not what the public wants to see. Instead, fans will watch the four remaining acts from the 2014 line-up, 3T, Damage, A1 and 5th Story, as well as the three boy bands from last year, 5ive, 911 and Blue. While I would be happy to see the groups from this year's series, I begrudge paying more than £50 per ticket for a show I've seen almost half of already. It also seems incredibly unfair on Girl Thing and Eternal, who have worked just as hard as their male co-stars to make the reunion work. Various news articles state that the girl bands were dropped to boost ticket sales, but for me it's had the opposite effect.
