Gotta keep my feet on the ground...
The Wanted and McFly are doing a gig together!

What do you get when you cross one hot current boyband with one former boyband and a Strictly Come Dancing Trophy and a Jungle crown?
We may have given the game away. We also may have just confused you. We may have confused ourselves. What we were trying to say in one big breathless squeal of excitement is that The Wanted and those gorgeous McFly boys have announced they will be performing, together!
Sorry, we had to run round the room in excitement there.
The huge concert will be dual-headlined by the two bands (we get it, one of them is not better than the other, they are equally lovely) for Blackpool's brand new Tower Festival Headland on Sunday 24th June. Right opposite Blackpool tower, where Harry was only a month ago.
It's a while away but these grey days have us dreaming of summer and this is an event that we really like thinking about. The Wanted have been recently touring the US with Justin Bieber, achieving great early success over there with Max even tweeting this morning:
"Cant believe whats happened to me in the last 3 years....from nothing to touring america.... Thanks so much... Doin it for you guys x"
In the meantime, the McFly boys have been biding their time in the background. That is until recently, when Dougie became King of the Jungle on I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here at the same time as Harry became the Strictly Come Dancing champion. They are also embarking on a UK tour and we should be able to hear some new material from the guys - we've been waiting a while!
All in all, a seaside weekend break with these boys thrown in, doesn't sound half bad. Although you'd better make sure you get in early if you want a ticket. The tickets for McFly's upcoming tour sold out within a few days!

Dougie mention in that last article: "The celebs thanked everyone for voting, but poor McFly bassist Dougie seemed so overwhelmed that he admitted he couldn’t think of anything to say, expect “thank you”!" Haha legend (click
here to see a gif image of this overwhelming moment)). Dougie's reaction later on Twitter: "Thanks for voting for IACGMOOH. Awesome awesome awesome. Mark stole my lines and a bit of pee pee came out".
Earlier today Karen Edwards (Heatworld) had her interview with McFly. She said on Twitter: "Wow, thanks for all the McFly questions. Will let you know where to read it all soon." Keep your eyes peeled on her account (
