Busted reunion: Tour celebrating 20th anniversary coming to Glasgow and Aberdeen - tickets & presale details

Matt Willis, Charlie Simpson and James Bourne will be reuniting as Busted to celebrate the bands 20th anniversary.

Fans were delighted to see that Busted have confirmed a massive 15-date reunion tour to celebrate the band’s 20th anniversary. The band will return to Scotland on their tour for not one, but two dates in Glasgow and Aberdeen.

The good news didn’t stop there, Busted also revealed they would be releasing a brand new album after posting a cryptic message across their social media channels. The album will feature new versions of their iconic songs, as well as including other bands from the 2000s such as All Time Low and McFly.

James explained: “It’s out of this world that we get to do this and we couldn’t be more excited about it. It’s going to be wicked.”

While bandmate Matt told a national newspaper: “Now it feels like it’s meant to feel. It’s like the very beginning all over again. Right now it feels like it’s barely even begun.”

Busted teased their reunion on Instagram earlier this week, exciting fans with a cryptic post which featured a VHS cassette tape being inserted into a TV unit. There was some static on the screen before the band’s logo appeared.

Charlie also teased a reunion during an appearance on Capital Breakfast when he said: “It might be coming. If it was coming I’d be sworn to secrecy.”
