Gary Go Confirmed To Support Take That

Wednesday, 4 February
From http://www.takethat.com/news/

Take That have given little-known singer songwriter Gary Go his big break by confirming him as a support act on their UK tour.

Gary Go will be joining the band in playing to over a million people, including performances at Wembley Stadium – the venue at the end of the road where he grew up!

Take That are still yet to play a full show at Wembley Stadium, so it will be an exciting first for both. The band have been big fans of Gary Go since the middle of last year and the choice to bring him with them in June was a very personal one. They said: ‘Gary Go is a rare and talented artist with an amazing voice and inspirational songs. We all just love his passion and enthusiasm’.

Mark added: ‘I’m absolutely made up that Gary Go is touring with us and delighted to hear that things seem to be going so well for him. Go Gary, Gary Go he really is quite… wonderful’, making reference to Gary Go’s new single ‘Wonderful’, which will be released on Feb 16th.
Gary Go will open for Take That on every night over their 2009 summer tour.

Details of Take That summer tour and Take That Tickets are available at The Online Ticket Shop.
