Take That could be back to their original 90s line-up if hints dropped at their press conference yesterday have anything to do with it.
Announcing their forthcoming UK tour, the band said they would be thrilled if ex-member Robbie Williams would rejoin them. Howard Donald said, "It would be lovely to have Robbie join us and let’s just say we’re keeping in touch about it," Donald told the media. “Having Robbie on stage with us to sing would be amazing and we’ll have to wait and see if he’s up for it, we certainly are.”
This was the first year that Robbie, who has so far monopolised the Brit Awards, missed out, getting only one nomination for Best British Live Act where he was beaten by Muse. His old band on the other hand managed to win Best Single without him. Ooh, that's just got to hurt...
The tour begins on November 16 in Birmingham, running for 22 dates at the following venues:
Birmingham NEC (November 16,17,19,20)
Glasgow SECC (22,23,24)
Newcastle Arena (26,27)
London 02 Arena (29,30)
Manchester MEN Arena (December 10,11,13,14,15,17,18,19)

Will Robbie really get back with the band, or is he just peeved at missing out on the Brits?

Who cares really? His last album was shit, in fact most of them before and it can't be coincidence that he went into rehab meltdown just as Take That were all conquering. Poor Robbie - still, I wish I has his problems. He should try all his crap and be skint too.

Robbie was actually nominated for a Brit this year, in the category of Best Live Act but he was beaten by Muse. And for all the idiots that are giving him a hard time right now, please remember that depression is a mental illness and can affect anyone regardless of how rich or poor you are. If you did not realise this, don't open your mouth.

Well said Eilidh, it doesn't matter how rich or poor you are, if you suffer from depression, it will get to you. Guess some people cannot understand that if they have never been through it, or haven't experienced other people going through it.
As for Robbie joining Take That on tour.....all I can say here......here we go, yet again!

It is well known - and you don't need a doctor to tell you this - that too much coke, ecstacy, marijuana etc facilitates depression. So yes, you're right, rich and poor people do get depression, it's an ugly disease. But both rich and poor people have access to varying qualities of class A narcotics.
Whats the deal? Anybody over thirty these days gets depression because most of us have gone overboard at some point in our lives on the ol' substances. However, most of us get over it, move on, much in the same way as people that go verboard on the drinking when they're single and young, don't as much when they settle down.
Right now, being the 'pop superstar' that he is, he'd have very little to do on those days when he isn't being 'Robbie' so all that thinking on his lonesome can't be helping either.
All he needs to do is chill out, get some excercise and spend some time with people he knows he can trust and have a good time with.
Music aside, the lads from Take That would provide that in a heartbeat.

It's a shame he's fallen out of favour when he's just made by far the best album of his career. The new single, She's Madonna, is a brilliant pop record yet is picking up little airplay in this country.
