S Club 7 Fans Were Angry After a Single Member Showed Up to a Concert
After S Club 7 announced their nationwide tour, fans couldn’t wait to reunite with the members of the group. However, when a single member turned up to a sold-out concert that was anticipated by many and for quite a while, fans were left angry and disappointed.
S Club 7 Failed to Reunite
Former Spice Girls manager, Simon Fuller, also founded the iconic British pop group S Club 7 in 1998. The band achieved great success in the late 1990s and early 2000s, becoming one of the UK’s biggest pop groups with chart-topping hits like “S Club Party”, “Don’t Stop Movin”, and “Bring it All Back”. After a hiatus of eight years, fans were thrilled to learn that S Club 7 would reunite for their 25th-anniversary tour in the UK and Ireland. All seven original members of S Club 7, including Jon Lee, Bradley McIntosh, Tina Barrett, Paul Cattermole, Jo O’Meara, Rachel Stevens, and Hannah Spearritt, initially agreed to the reunion tour.
However, recently fans were left with great disappointment when only one member appeared at a recent small gig in the Isle of Wight, causing a frenzy among them. Initially, two of the S Club 7 members, Tina Barrett and Bradley McIntosh, confirmed their performance at a 150-capacity venue in Newport and for a reasonably priced ticket as part of the ‘Flashback Fridays’ event, which quickly sold out in a matter of seconds.
S Club 7 Plan a Reunion Tour
Many fans were eagerly anticipating a nostalgic performance from S Club 7 but were disappointed when Tina did not show up, leaving Bradley to perform alone. This news caused an uproar on Twitter, with one fan expressing their outrage by saying that the night was a huge disappointment and that they felt sorry for Bradley. Another fan tweeted their anger, stating that they paid good money to see two members of S Club 7 and got just one. A third fan was also disappointed and called the whole situation a letdown.
According to a spokesperson from the venue hosting the show, the absence of Tina and contractual obligations prevented S Club 7 from performing at the show for which tickets had been sold. In light of the inconvenience caused to disappointed fans, the venue has offered a 50% refund to affected customers. Despite this setback, fans can still anticipate the official reunion tour beginning in October.
