Supergroup, for want of a better word, McBusted - Busted minus the good looking one and McFly - have been speaking out about the name of the band. And despite it being 'sh*t', as they so eloquently put it, revealed they have been forced to embrace it.
The lads, who will go on tour next year including a Dublin date, were at the Cosmopolitan Ultimate Women of the Year Awards 2013 where they spoke out about the name, 'We'd gone through regretting it, and now we embrace it. We think actually, it's so ****, we quite like it! There was a really **** list of names, and this was the only possible one. It was the best of a really bad bunch. Bustfly, they were all on there. I challenge anyone to work out a better one.' said Matt Willis.
Despite the name, the guys have said it's been a very natural transition of becoming the one band. 'What's awesome about us is that we started off as bands that had a real genuine relationship. We were around at the same time so we've basically been in each others' bands for ten years anyway.' said Tom Fletcher.
McBusted play O2 in Dublin on 2nd June next, tickets are priced at €49.65 and are on sale now!
