I've had enough of waiting.

New Kids On the Block have did it. Take That have, too. Why haven't Bros got on the old reunion bandwagon?!

Come on blokes lads! I have my Grolsch bottle tops attached to my shoes, my denim jacket covered in button badges and stonewash jeans all ready and waiting. Make and old woman happy.

NO NO NO NO! Bros were SHIT!

AtYourCervix · 02/05/2013 12:07

Matt still does it for me

squoosh · 02/05/2013 12:08

I'm sorry but Craig is the only one my vagine would agree to hosting. The other two are a bit tangeriney, makeupy and hair transplanty.

SaggyOldClothCatPuss · 02/05/2013 12:08

Bananarama should definitely come back! "Na na na na, na na na na, het hey hey, go ood biii"

You have Jedward now.

There is no room for Bros.

Oh God, I would piss myself if Bananarama made a comeback.

We need to arrange a Behemoths of the '80s Tour.

Bros (top slot on bill), Bananarama (with Fun Boy Three coming out for a rendition of It Ain't What You Do, if they are all still alive), Brother Beyond, Curiosity Killed The Cat (only two songs please)

The guy from Curiosity Killed the Cat had a v fancy name if I recall........

AtYourCervix · 02/05/2013 12:19

Oooh. Brother beyond.

AtYourCervix · 02/05/2013 12:20

I couldn't bare CKTC.

My god, I thought I was the last Brossette standing! I got teased mercilessly for it! Had such a pash on Matt Goss Blush until Eric Stoltz came along in Some Kind of Wonderful Grin
I was never really 'into' any other bands like I was with Bros, which was short-lived.
I had one of those old-fashioned photo albums, with the fold-back plastic covers, FULL of Matt Goss pictures from Smash Hits and J17.
I begged my parents for all kinds of Bros shit stuff for Christmas but all I got was a calendar, I was gutted.
I'd gone off them by May and binned the lot without a backward glance Grin

Wasn't it Ben du Jour or something?

SarahAndFuck · 02/05/2013 12:23

Netmums wouldn't take me unless I changed my name to PrincessSarahandGlitteryF**k, so I'm back. Grin

I love the light up jacket, I hope you have photo's. Could you not have gone outside in the jacket and passed the plug in through the window, so your mum could plug you in and you could stand by your house and show the world your demented fairy-lit Brosette fabulousness?

All I had was bottle tops and playing cards on my shoes, and a white shirt with red stars all over it. Six sizes too big. I want a light up jacket.

MarmaladeTwatkins · 02/05/2013 12:23

"Ben Volpeliere-Pierrot (vocals), Julian Godfrey Brookhouse (guitar), Nicholas Bernard Throp (bass), Michael Drummond (drums), and Toby Anderson (keyboards)"

Shock

They sound like a bunch of David Cameron's mates.

Ben Volpeliere Pierrot!

Wonder if that was only a 'stage' name. His real name was probably Ben Briggs.

SarahAndFuck · 02/05/2013 12:24

Ben Vol Poirot?

Ben Vol Perrier?

Ben Pol Pot?

YoniOneWayOfLife · 02/05/2013 12:24

I really want to find that Trevor and Simon sketch now Blush

magicstar1 · 02/05/2013 12:25

I still wear my Bros belt buckles lol....luckily they don't actually say BROS, just the steers head and James Dean ones.

Matt seems to be doing really well with his Rat Pack show in Las Vegas!

squoosh · 02/05/2013 12:25

I loved Trev and Simon! Haven't heard of them in years.

AtYourCervix · 02/05/2013 12:25

I can't stay here all day reminiscing. I'm bastard working tonight and must have a sleep.

Did anyone else do the cutting out pics and sticking them to your folder, then 'laminating' with strips of sellotape?

elQuintoConyo · 02/05/2013 12:25

Thanks for the links MarmaladeTwatkins I'd still do Matt Goss - in Vegas Grin phroargh!

MarmaladeTwatkins · 02/05/2013 12:26

My mother swears she had a photo of me in the light up jacket stood by the telly, but I have thebig box of old photos here and I have never come across it. I do have one of me in Bros regalia, on my way to the concert where I found out about the light up jacket! Had it as my FB profile picture for a while!
