    I just read that the remaining desperate members of Busted and McFly are to join together to make a 'supergroup'.

    Steps reforming was one thing, T'Pau still gigging is another, but this is just wrong.


    What is the best/worst amalgamation of talented/talentless musicians/media whores that you can come up with ?

    B*Witched and Cleopatra (comin' atcha) ?

    Pretty sure it'll pass me by without me noticing. If people are dumb enough to pay money for their dubious talents then who really gives a shyte.

    If Stiff Little Fingers and The Backstreet Boys did it, they could call themselves Backstreet Fingers or Stiff Little Boys.

    I think Backstreet Fingers sounds durtier.

    How about Busted Fly? Good name for a bunch of d**cks hanging out together ...

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    McBusted?

    Who comes up with these ridiculous ideas?

    Bizarre.

    It's as mad as getting Fine Gael and Labour together and trying to pass them off as a government. Who in their right mind would come up with...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,093 ✭✭✭rawn


    I, a 25 year old female who snorts derisively when I hear 17/18 year olds giggling over One Direction, am ridiculously excited to go see McBusted perform. I haven't listened to their music in YEARS but they were my guilty pleasure back in the day.

    So.

    Damn.

    Excited.

    Anyways, if there was a "supergroup" I would not love to see, it would be the Simply Red and The BeeGee's. *shudder*
    Simply Gee's?
    Simply Red'Gee's?

    BusFly would have been better. One less syllable and would save all kinds of printing costs.

    I should do this professionally

    I for one think it's a great idea :)

    McFly and Busted have always had connections - Busted introduced McFly's debut on CD:UK.

    Good for them, no reason why they shouldn't give it a try.

    New Kids on the Block and Backstreet Boys toured as a supergroup and called themselves NKOTBSB.

    Although Charlie with the amazing eyebrows won't be joining his former bandmates on tour, he has just been paid a 6 figure sum to give up his share of the Busted name.

    I'm loving McBusted (apart from the name). I remember crying when Busted broke up. :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 904 ✭✭✭MetalDog


    McBusted? sounds like a fast food chain employee getting caught fucking the drinks machine.

    Flicking through the channels many years ago I stumbled across "America or Busted" on MTV and was transfixed-it was like a real life Spinal Tap. This episode about a gig gone bad could have been straight from the film and, just like the film, the funniest bits are the delusional speeches the band make to the camera.

    I loved that programme!

    Haha. That clip was amazing. Look at the guys, pretending they're actually playing their instruments and shít. <3

    That was great - It was hard to tell if they were just taking the piss at times.

    I remember their Manager saying "Hey Guys - wouldn't it be funny if you someone else did a cover version of 'what I go to school for', and they had a huge hit in America?"

    They looked at him like they wanted to throw him into the river.

    I'll kick off with three.........

    Taste.

    Decency.

    Integrity.

    They weren't even good boy bands (yes, there were some back in the day) and should've stayed "retired".

    Horrendous music.

    Blair on guitar, Bono on vocals, Clinton on sax. Yeah, that is definitely going to happen.

    I want you all to really, truly imagine a band. A band with members Justin Beiber, Rebecca Black, Jedward, Lil' Wayne and Niki Minaj playing as support to this "Mc Busted" at a large gig...
