A lot of you seem to have been about 13 and it’s JUST about OK .. but we were 10/11! and it’s so more full on than say One Direction! It’s forever etched in my memory 😂 Robbie really peaked about 19 didn’t he; he’s one of those people that was really beautiful for a brief moment!

Definitely, especially when he had the curtains and his fair flopped in just the right way.


Speaking of Robbie, Edinburgh Zoo posted this about him being at Murrayfield on Saturday. It's been doing the rounds on Twitter and Facebook. I guess someone there is a big fan :)

I'm going to that one too 🥳 Have you been to the stadium before? My autistic brain needs to fully research venues before going but I'm struggling to find much info out about this one!

Saw Take That there in 2019 (I think). Recommend going on the train. Parking is appalling and the station isn't that far away. They ran buses from the station to the stadium but leaving afterwards, just walk to the station.
St Mary's is a phenomenal stadium (Saints fan) but queues for drinks are llllloooonnnnggggg !

I always though Howard was born in 1969, but apparently it was '68. Didn't they make a joke of it in the "making a boyband" segment if the 2006 tour?

Been back on with my presale code and there's STILL standing and seats available! Don't think I've ever seen that before. Maybe the hype isn't as big as usual this time.

i was fuming with my pre sale code because i kept getting bad url and couldn’t get through. When I eventually did all the cheaper seats had gone.

I’m a take that fan (since the beginning) in my mid 40’s).

I can be a fan of their music, but realise as an adult I have completely different values and opinions to one member (or more) of a band who’s music has resonated with me for decades.

as a person I don’t think Howard (in my opinion) is right to sit on a toilet reposting utter shit when he has a platform as big as he does. On his private page where his opinions don’t slur the image of the band, he is allowed to post whatever he wanted but I can’t imagine the uproar if mark or especially Gary were to post a racist, sexiest or homophobic post on their grid/stories and it not cause uproar or make the tabloids.

just because ‘that’s what Howard is like’ doesn’t mean it’s acceptable or that as a fan I can’t be disgusted that his management let him get away with this on a ‘work’ page.

my teenage son and daughter see these posts (they’ve been brought up on TT) and my best friend reposts everything he posts as she is obsessed by him, so inevitably I see or hear what he has posted.

The ‘mute’ button may be a good plan

The venues are slowly being teased via their Instagram. So far, nothing in the North East so not a happy bunny. .if Glasgow ends up being in the school holidays, that's my best option 😬

Looks like the stadiums may have a small b stage set up judging by these Boro images

Interesting that the stage is at a goal end though when the plan for Nottingham shows different.

I hope they do! I realise that obviously they can’t have the full shebang like in the arenas but don’t see why they couldn’t have a b stage and runway like they have done before in stadiums! I didn’t quite understand why the stage at Notts isn’t at a goal end!

that's really helpful, thanks ☺ Starting to get excited now, do we think there's any chance Lulu will show up? (I really hope not...)

Do they check ID?

Having tickets from a colleague so in their name, won't be with us on the night

They dont always but there usually stricter for TT compared to other acts. And past gigs I have seen them check people.
I messaged the ticket people just to be careful
