Eighties band Spandau Ballet are reportedly considering reforming.
Original members Gary and Martin Kemp, Steve Norman and John Keeble are apparently all ready to work together again. And even Tony Hadley has indicated he's prepared to ignore their differences and mount a comeback. The new romantics band will sign a record deal, make a new album then hit the road for an extensive tour. A source told The Sun: "Spandau Ballet have seen the success of Duran Duran and want to get in on the action. They want a piece of the nostalgia pie. There have been bitter rivalries. But they are finally willing to put them to one side to work again. "The five of them believe they still have a lot to offer. They are very keen to work on new material and not just become a tribute band to the 1980s." In 1996, singer Hadley, drummer Keeble and sax player Norman launched a legal battle against songwriter Gary Kemp. The bandmates argued Kemp had always promised to split the royalties between them. Their legal teams were demanding around £1million each in back pay. But when the case came to court in 1999, the trio lost and ended up out of pocket. |
