From Buy Tickets at Ticketmaster.ie: Take That, Britain’s best-loved band, today confirmed that they’re to hit the road next summer for a string of stadium dates around the UK including a concert in Dublin’s Croke Park on Saturday 13 June 2009 (subject to licence). Tickets for the Irish date are priced 59.50/69.50/79.50 euro (including booking fee) and go on sale Thursday 6 November at 8am. The Script will join Take That in Croke Park as their special guests.

Take That Present The Circus Live – Summer 2009, will see Gary, Howard, Mark and Jason embark on their biggest tour to date with a monumental eight stadium dates across the UK. The Circus - Live, promises to be the bands most visually dramatic, diverse and exhilarating tour yet.

Kicking off at Sunderland’s fabled ‘Stadium of Light on June 6, the band then travel to Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium, Glasgow’s Hampden Park, three nights in their home town of Manchester at Old Trafford and culminating with two nights at London’s state of the art, Wembley Stadium.

“All of us are really looking forward to getting back on the road again next summer. We can think of no better way to thank everyone for their support and loyalty over the past three years. This will be the biggest tour we’ve ever done so we’ll be working especially hard over the next few months to make it the best and most exciting Take That tour yet.”

When Gary Barlow, Howard Donald, Jason Orange and Mark Owen tentatively met up back in 2005 to discuss the possibility of making a TV documentary to mark 10 years since their split, none of them could have imagined the incredible journey they were about to embark upon.

The documentary was a ratings winner, attracting over seven million viewers, and as a direct result, on 25 November 2005, the band appeared at an official press conference to announce a British tour - their first in 10 years. The Ultimate Tour sold out in record time and saw the band play to over half a million euphoric fans around the nation winning critical and public acclaim.

And that was just the beginning. Take That’s last album Beautiful World sold more than two and half million copies in the UK, making it their most successful record to date. The subsequent 2007 Beautiful World Tour smashed all box office records, selling over 370,000 tickets in less than two hours. Since reclaiming their place as Britain’s best-loved band, Take That have played live to over a million people across the UK and Europe and the live DVDs they released in the wake of both tours were the biggest selling music titles of 2006 (The Ultimate Tour) and 2007 (Beautiful World Live). They have also won a string of prestigious awards including an Ivor Novello for single Shine with Mark Owen on lead vocals, and three Brit Awards: Best Single (2007) for Patience, Best Single (2008) for Shine and Best Live Act (2008).

Early Meeting Danny O'Donoghue and Mark Sheehan met when they were in their late teens in a club in James's Street area of inner-city Dublin, near the Guinness brewery, gravitating to each other through a shared obsession with music, and in particular a love of American black music. "At that time, MTV only came on in Dublin after midnight, it was the fuzzy channel, and for my generation black culture was just a wave through us all," explains Sheehan. "It wasn't about gangs and guns; it was fashion and fun, singing and dancing. " Striking up a songwriting and production partnership, O'Donoghue and Sheehan's t...
