The former boy band –members include Gary Barlow, Howard Donald, Jason Orange and Mark Owen– hasn’t toured together in nearly fifteen years, but their “Progress Live 2011″ is set to begin at the Sunderland Stadium of Light in the U.K. on May 30th. They’ll spend all of June in the U.K. and finish things off with a 4-night stay at London’s Wembley Stadium July 1-3 & 5.
The European leg of the reunion tour begins shortly thereafter with stops in Italy, Denmark, the Netherlands and Germany. We can hear loads of knickers getting into twists with this news, especially since Take That tickets for the U.K. dates go on sale Oct. 29. Europe goes on sale Nov. 5.
Take That’s new album, Progress, is due out November 22, but the first single and video, “The Flood,” can been seen on the band’s official website.
Still no word yet about a U.S. tour, so check back for more Take That and Robbie Williams news.

]]>In the past week, Owen announced that he has been an alcoholic for about 10 years and cheated on his wife, Emma, during that time. Now, Owen is getting professional help, but that means that the anticipated studio time with Williams had to be canceled.
After Owen’s wife kicked him out of their LA home last weekend, Williams stepped forward and gave him a place to stay.
