Here and Now, The Steps Musical

No comments

I have been a Steps fan since the very beginning. I have seen them on tour more times than I can remember and I cannot tell you how excited I am that they announced Here and Now, The Steps Musical. This brand new musical will be based on the much loved catchy Steps songs. It promises to  be a hilarious and heart-warming show.

Here and Now, The Steps Musical

Welcome to seaside superstore Better Best Bargains, where it's Friday night, the vibe is right, and everyone's dancing in the aisles. But when Caz discovers the shelves are stocked with lies and betrayal, the summer of love she and her friends dreamed of suddenly feels like a tragedy. Have they all lost their chance of a 'happy ever after'? Or does love have other plans in store...?

Where Can I See Here and Now, The Steps Musical?

Currently there is only one venue announced however it has been promised that more dates will be announced soon. 

Sat 9 Nov - Sun 24 Nov 2024, The Alexandra, Birmingham

CLICK TO BOOK TICKETS

After Birmingham it seems it may move to the West End. As soon as I have any more information I will update.

This brand new musical is produced by Steps themselves, ROYO and pop legend Pete Waterman. I have read that this is something Steps have wanted to do for a long time but wanted to find the perfect script. I'm sure it will be worth the wait.

Why I Still Love 90's Music

Why I Still Love 90's Music

No comments

We will soon be going on a little road trip and I've asked the boys to send me over a Spotify playlist of 50 songs each so including my own we will have 200 songs to shuffle through whilst we are on the road. I sat making mine last night and every single song I've added is from the 90's. I absolutely love 90's pop music especially the Spice Girls, Steps and 911. The 90's was a great time for me, I was in my teens, got my first job and loved going out dancing on a Saturday night. 

Luckily the bands I loved back then all started to make come backs over the past 4-5 years as part of reunion tours. I have been lucky though to relive my youth by seeing a few of my favourite artists in concert again over recent years and here are a few of my highlights.

Steps

Steps were huge in the 90's and although nowadays they are classed as a cheesy pop band, their reunion tour last year was huge. It was amazing to see them up on stage doing what they do best and seeing thousands of people in the crowd joining in with their dance routines, myself included.

Favourite Steps Band Member

Claire - Her voice is amazing.

911

I was never really a big 911 fan but when they changed their image and sound and released More Than A Woman I fell in love. I actually wanted to marry Lee and was devastated when I found out he was dating Lindsay from B*Witched, haha. 911 and other bands took part in The Big Reunion series on TV a few years back which then led to a tour. I managed to get tickets and it was a brilliant night watching all the boy bands from the 90's performing together. I actually have no idea how Jimmy and Spike can still pull off those dance moves 20 years later.

Favourite 911 Band Member 

Lee. He was gorgeous and I wanted to marry him when I was 16

Spice Girls

Last but not least The Spice Girls. Their music was the soundtrack to my late teen years. You may have read on my blog recently that although I had tickets to see them last week I missed the Spice Girls concert and was absolutely gutted but I'm hoping they will be back on tour again. I actually wanted to enter the recent Walkers Campaign to find The Spice Girls Biggest Fan as I think I would definitely be in with a shot of winning.  Although I didn't see them this time around I did see them back in 2007 when they headed to Manchester for their first reunion tour. There is always a part of a concert that sticks out and for me it was when the five girls were on stage singing Viva Forever and Geri slowly lowered down on a platform so she wasn't on stage anymore. The idea behind it was that she had left The Spice Girls at the point of Viva Forever being released which I took really badly so when they did this on stage, I cried.

Favourite Spice Girl

Geri ' Ginger' Halliwell. I loved her and wanted to be her when I was younger.

Favourite Spice Girls Song

Spice Up Your Life. This was the first song of their much anticipated second album. It was more edgy than what they had done before and I love it.

Stop

There are loads more bands I haven't mentioned however I still love them all and I'm definitely a 90's girl at heart.

Steps Are Back - #20YearsOfSteps

Steps Are Back - #20YearsOfSteps

No comments

Well today when I got home and started to browse through Facebook I did not expect to see this news trending - STEPS ARE BACK. Woohoo I am so excited. I have been a very loyal fan for 20 years so I am delighted that not only are they back with a new album but a tour too. I have seen Steps live many times and obviously their music is poptastic but they were born to perform on stage, their live shows are amazing. #20YearsOfSteps here we come.

So over the years I have continued to listen to Steps, watch various programmes featuring individual members of the band and also their reunion a few years back. There have been rumours since late last year that they would reform but sometimes those type of rumours fizzle out so I didn't want to get my hopes up. 

I quickly popped over to the Steps Official page and there was the news that their album Tears On The Dancefloor will be arriving on April 21st and the tour will commence in November 2017. Tickets go on sale March 10th and I've popped a list of dates below.

Mon Nov 13 - Dublin 3Arena

Tue Nov 14 - Belfast SSE Arena

Thu Nov 16 - Glasgow SSE Hydro

Fri Nov 17 - Aberdeen AECC

Sat Nov 18 - Liverpool Echo Arena

Mon Nov 20 - Newcastle Metro Radio Arena

Tue Nov 21 - Leeds First Direct Arena

Thu Nov 23 - Brighton Centre

Fri Nov 24 - London The O2

Sat Nov 25 - London The SSE Arena, Wembley

Mon Nov 27 - Bournemouth BIC

Tue Nov 28 - Nottingham Motorpoint Arena

Wed Nov 29 - Cardiff Motorpoint Arena

Fri Dec 1 - Birmingham Barclaycard Arena

Sat Dec 2 - Manchester Arena

So the big question is are you excited that #20YearsOfSteps are back and if so are you going to buy the album or tickets to the tour. I'm guessing it's obvious that I will be doing both. Can't wait - roll on April and November.
