After the successful Beautiful World tour, Take That has announced with their biggest ever series of UK concerts in 2009. Take That named this tour ‘The Circus Live – Summer 2009.
The Circus Live - Summer 2009 - so named after their upcoming album - will see the renowned boy band take to the stage for eight stadium shows in June and July, including a three-night spot at Old Trafford Cricket Ground in Manchester. We can also call this tour with the name Take That Stadium UK Tour 2009.
The tour will begin at the Stadium of Light in Sunderland and end with two dates at Wembley Stadium in July 2009.
While their 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 was an even enormous success, selling over 370,000 tickets in less than two hours.
A spokesman for the band said"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."

Early Days
When Take That shaped, they were forging a new type of musical pathway as much as a musical career, as they were largely the pioneers of the new boyband genre outside of the US. They going ahead with more dance oriented melodies to cater to the British dance and disco scene of the late 1980s and early 1990s, and were known for a more older, adult feel and image than the squeaky-clean New Kids. The band sported body piercings, tattoos, facial hair and dreadlocks (in Donald's case).
For the first two years, the band performed at school dances, public events and even bars.

For the first two years, the band performed at school dances, public events and even bars.
Success (1992)
The band's burst through single was a cover of the 1970s Tavares hit It Only Takes A Minute, which sharp at number seven on the UK Singles Chart. This success was followed by the track I Found Heaven, then by the first Barlow ballad A Million Love Songs - both top 20 hits. Their cover of the Barry Manilow disco hit Could It Be Magic gave them their biggest hit to date, peaking at number 3 in the UK. Their first album, Take That & Party, was released in 1992, and included all the hit singles to date. The band was still however, not widely known outside of the dance circuit, and had not made it into the mainstream music charts.
1993
1993 saw the release of Take That's most successful original album Everything Changes, based on Barlow's original material. It spawned four UK number one singles - their first number one Pray, Relight My Fire, Babe (beaten to Christmas number one by Mr Blobby), and the title track Everything Changes. The fifth single Love Ain't Here Anymore reached number three on the UK charts. Everything Changes saw the band gain international success, but it failed to crack the US market where an exclusive remix Love Ain't Here Anymore (U.S. Version) gained little success. However, by 1994, the band had become radio and television hits across Europe and Asia, where along many other 90s acts like Michael Jackson and Duran Duran, the rise of MTV videos streamed direct to via what was a new form of television called cable TV saw the rise of global touring opportunities because of worldwide audiences as it meant the band reached audiences far and wide. However, it was not till 1995 that the band would do their first World Tour.
1996
On 13 February 1996, Take That declared that they were disbanding. This was followed by the Greatest Hits compilation in 1996, which contained a new recording, a cover of The Bee Gees How Deep Is Your Love. The single went on to become what was to be the band's final U.K. number one until their 2005 comeback a decade later. At the time in 1996, such was the level of Take That's popularity, that upon their announcement of their break up, millions of teenage fans were seen crying all over the country and across Europe. The situation got so dire that counselling hotlines had to be specially set up by local authorities to cater to suicidal tendencies in many young women

Take That Come Back With More
There's good news for Take That fans - the fab four have apparently already got plans for a follow-up to their 2006 comeback album Beautiful World.And the boys, who digged honour for British Single and British Live Act at the Brits last week, think their best work may be still to come, reports the Daily Star.Frontman Gary Barlow, 37, was quoted as saying: "We're starting to talk about another album. We'll take a little break first, then probably take another break and then see where we go from there. But we think we can get even better."The group, whose recent hits include Shine and Rule The World, were ecstatic about their live act award - even though they in fact declared that their recent tour had taken it out of them.Mark Owen, 36, reportedly said: "The older we get the more painful it is to perform."
Take That Biography
Take That was shaped in 1990 as Britain’s respond to the American boy band ’New Kids on the Block’. The band members were Gary Barlow (lead vocalist and song-writer), Robbie Williams (second lead and cheeky chappie), Jason Orange (choreographer and dancer), Marc Owen (the ’cute’ one)and Howard Donald (dancer).Although they had a somewhat shaky start, and were close to being dropped from their record label - they then released ’It Only Takes a Minute’ which went to the number one chart spot. Teenage girls loved them everywhere, and they had eight number one hits altogether - including ’Relight My Fire’ with Lulu (also reinvigorating Lulu’s career as well!)
News that Robbie was leave-taking the band was taken badly by the fans, and although the four that were left did carry on (and have two more hit records) they finally announced it was all over in 1996. Teenage girls worldwide needed counselling... Until the next boy band of course.
Post Take That, youngest band member Robbie Williams has gone on to acheive the dizzying heights of A List stardom, while Gary (the one who was expected to shine) has not been heard of so much, although he did have two number one singles.
