The flist has amused me this morning, so many posts about Chris and Manband, which come on, best name ever! Personally I say, bring it on! Chris on my tv screen, Chris singing, a cheesy show like this will suit him down to the ground while providing exposure. I get why some people are cringing, but really, he decided to sign up for the show, I'm sure he knows what he's doing. I just have this great image of him cackling away when shown the proposal, realising how much potential there is to laugh at himself and the others.

I've also seen mentions that Kevin could be the fifth unnamed member. Let me warn you, if this happens I'll explode with glee!! I know how improbably that is, but still....

YAY CHRIS!!

In other not Chris news. The party went well on Friday, I rocked my witch outfit, even when I had to walk to the cashpoint and join the queue while in full witch getup. The club was packed, the band good, if a little loud, there was little mam bad behaviour and the best friend and I had a good time. Which really, what more can you ask?

It was the best friend's birthday on Sunday, so I spent a lot of the weekend with her. Sat we went bowling, though I didn't join in. My shoulders have been aching lately and I didn't think hefting bowling balls around would help. Instead I watched, and drank and ended up at her house playing video games until early in the morning. Sunday it was rugby, then nanna visiting. Dad was there, they've asked him to join a Parkinson's group twice a week, and he was saying how hard it is when he can't talk right anymore. Talk about twisting your heart. Later that day we took Jill and her son out to dinner, but dude, it's good that I love her, not for many people would I be the screen as they placed most of the leftovers into a plastic bag to take home.

Dude, my imagination has worked overtime ever since I heard, especially with that fifth spot still open.

Yeah, I can't ever see him joining either. I imagine even though he's not in the group right now, he'll still class himself as part of Backstreet. It's a shame he's not joining though, because dude, can you imagine!? Even thinking about it makes me laugh *g*

The other four would totally come kidnap him back. I'm sure they could carry Kevin into the night. Nick taking most of the weight, Howie and Brian a leg each, AJ encouraging them along ;)

If Kevin wants to be in a manband, he already has one on his own. :) I don't think he left BSB because he didn't like the other guys, but because he didn't want to be in a boyband at the moment.

Yeah, I totally agree.

But, I do hold out hope that one day he'll have another picture taken with Chris. You know, to add to the two we have.

I think more of my disbelief-cum-confusion about his motives in doing this arises from Chris going back to boyband pop (rather than the music he's been trying to do with his own groups), more than Chris deciding to do a cringingly cheesy reality show. That sentence is horrible, but I hopefully it makes some sense.

And please, none of them would do the carrying, they'd bring the bodyguards along for that ;)

You do make sense.

I guess I'm looking at it more he's amusing himself with this than an actual serious attempt to use this avenue to get back into main stream music. I can't see him abandoning the type of music he's producing now. But needing to sing as part of a group again, have other singers around he can bounce off. The show will have a limited run, time he can sing in a five part harmony again, then will inevitably end. If he's missing the others, this could be a chance to revisit a time of his life he loved, while not committing to something long term.

*shrugs* One theory at least.

And please, none of them would do the carrying, they'd bring the bodyguards along for that ;)

But...but...I like the idea of Nick slinging Kevin over his shoulder!

Hmmm, the wtf stories are connected, but it could work. I may have to think about this.
