"McFly and The Wanted to play Mouth of the Tyne Festival
MCFLY and The Wanted are to headline this year’s Mouth of the Tyne Festival.
The chart-topping bands will play in the grounds of Tynemouth Priory and Castle on July 13 and 14 respectively.
They follow in the footsteps of the likes of Scouting For Girls, Alexandra Burke, The Script, James Morrison and Beverley Knight, who have all performed at the festival in the past.
The multi award-winning McFly, boasting current King of the Jungle Dougie Poynter and Strictly champ Harry Judd, return to the North East after their Up Close and Personal UK tour, which is at the O2 Academy Newcastle in April.
Dougie, Harry, Danny and Tom will select their favourite hits from more than 15 Top 10 singles and five Top 20 albums at their show on Friday July 13.
Harry is currently wowing the crowds on the Strictly Come Dancing Live Tour at the Metro Radio Arena in Newcastle."

"McFly’s Tom Fletcher and his #craptweets are back with a BANG
Tom, we’ve missed you. Let’s go looking for belly button crumbs together.
Last year we proudly hailed Tom Fletcher of McFly our favourite celebrity Tweeter.
If we were feeling low Tom was there with his reassuring dad-jokes. When we were looking to have life’s more profound questions answered he’d be there with his sock ponderings; and when we wanted new words he gave us “bloobs”.
But then something happened, Tom’s tweets suddenly became less geeky and turned kind of cool. What was the reason behind the change in tone? Dougie Poynter and Harry Judd’s reality TV wins? Or, as we suspected, did he have a ghost tweeter – someone tweeting on his behalf to make him sound cooler?
Well whatever the phase he went through was we’re happy to say that as of 2012 he’s well and truly out of it and back to the #craptweets that we all know and love.
So let click next to go on a journey so profound that you might come out the other side a different person."

"McFly's Tom Fletcher felt old working with One Direction
He just didn't feel down with the kids. Awful stuff.
Although his tweets are super boring, there is one thing Tom Fletcher can do, and that’s write toe tapping, finger-snapping smash hit songs. And not just for McFly, no, no. As we’re sure you’re all fully aware, but we’re going to say it anyway, Tom wrote a song for One Direction. You know, which song we mean, right?
Tom penned ‘I Want’ for One Direction’s debut album Up All Night (wouldn’t it be great if it was the next single? Just sayin’) and reminisced with the Press Association about his sessions in the studio with Zayn, Harry, Liam, Louis and Niall.
He said: “They’re exactly like we were when we started. The first time I was in the studio with them I suddenly felt really old, because they have all this lingo that I don’t even know any more, and I’m well past it now.”
Tom continued: “But they’re exactly like we were and they’re really lovely guys and it’s really nice to see them, they’re really excited about what’s coming up and it’s nice because I know what they’ve got ahead of them.”
He is literally like a Granddad talking about his grandkids. It’s pretty sweet until you remember that he is in fact only 26 years old.
He finished up with: “It’s amazing. They all love it. I know exactly what they’re going through at the moment, and I think they’re in for a very good few years.”
Around about now, we would normally pay Tom a lovely compliment, say something like 'we don’t think you’re out of the loop with the lingo youth’s use today.' However, judging from his tweets, he probably is a bit. (Sorry, we don't mean to keep bringing it up, but they really are boring.)
So Tom, if you’re really feeling that old and left out, get on the internet and do something about it. You plum."

"McFly train with Saracens
Chart toppers McFly were given a day to remember at Old Albanians this week when the band members tackled Saracens in a singing, eating and rugby contest.
King of the Jungle Dougie Poynter and Strictly Come Dancing winner Harry Judd, along with fellow band members Tom Fletcher and Danny Jones, were given a special welcome as they performed their hit song It’s All About You with the squad and took part in training…but the highlight of the day was definitely the eating challenge between Dougie and Schalk Brits.
Having been used to eating a variety of different disgusting dishes in I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here, Dougie tackled the challenge head on, but hooker Brits was a little more hesitant when the dishes of pigs ears, pig snout and sheep penis were served.
“I have literally just found a hair stuck in the back of my teeth and that was un-expected,” said Dougie minutes after the challenge. “Some of the food was very, very, similar to the jungle and it bought back some horrible memories, but at least I didn’t have to eat anything that was alive... that’s bad!”
Look out for the eating challenge in full on Sarries TV in the coming days.
The band will perform at Wembley Stadium on Saturday 31st March as part of the entertainment for the Saracens v Harlequins Aviva Premiership match at the stadium.
“We are really looking forward to playing at Wembley and we will be supporting Saracens,” said Danny. “We had an awesome day. The Sarries boys were a really good bunch of lads and are quite scary when running at you at about 30 mph. I think if we had tried to tackle one of them we could have really hurt ourselves.”
See Sunday's match programme against Leicester Tigers for more pictures and an in-depth interview with McFly about their day at Saracens."

Peli oli osoittautui kuitenkin hieman liian rajuksi Tomille, koska hänen olkapäänsä meni ainakin osittain sijoiltaan. Tom kuitenkin pian tweettasi, ettei tästä ole mitään haittaa kiertueelle. Monet lehdet olivat kuitenkin nopeita ja kerkesivät kirjoittamaan asiasta, tässä linkkejä:

Tässä haastattelu samasta tapahtumasta:
"Dougie: I’ll be wearing no pants on stage!
We spoke to the gorgeous McFly boys about their half time show at Saracens v Harlequins, celebrity crushes and naked bottoms! Oohhh!
They famously sang about a girl with five colours in her hair, but eight years on McFly's Harry Judd reveals that it is now "diva" bass guitarist Dougie Poynter who makes the most fuss over his barnet.
"Dougie's got the longest hair, so his takes the longest to put into shape. But often he doesn't bother and just wears a headband," Harry revealed.
"I would say Danny or Dougie are the biggest divas!"
Currently in the middle of touring the country, the boys are also rehearsing for a half time performance during the Saracens v Harlequins rugby match in March.
"We're performing two songs before kick-off and then one at half time, so I'm really looking forward to it.
"I can't quite claim that we will be putting on a show like Madonna did at the Super Bowl but we'll be doing our very best."
2011 was a successful year for the McFly boys, with drummer Harry winning Strictly Come Dancing and bass guitarist Dougie being crowned the King of the Jungle in I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!
But scaling new heights of fame isn't always an advantage for the boys:
"I read the other day that I threw a strop and demanded that I have a TV in my bedroom so that I could watch David Beckham on Jonathan Ross," Harry told us.
"The fact is; every hotel room has a TV in it, so why would I have to demand a TV? [laughs]
"I think what happened was, I remember saying after a Strictly show that I was missing Match of the Day and Beckham on Jonathan Ross as well, and what a shame it was. The next day, people were saying I had thrown a strop and demanded a TV in my room so I could watch Beckham - my man crush - on TV apparently.
"Often you read funny things!"
But when they're not touring, rehearsing, or winning various reality TV shows, the boys lark about playing pranks on each other... and us:
"I can reveal a secret about one of the band..." Harry laughed.
"...Danny! I haven't seen him in three weeks and he just walked in the room and pulled his pants down on me! That's often how he greets me! That's a sight I get to see quite a lot."
While speaking to Dougie, the mischievous bass player told us, "On Danny's personal rider, he has eight gallons of cocoa butter and seven gallons of KY Jelly."
"... and I'll be wearing no pants on stage when we perform," the bassist continued.
Don't get too excited ladies, though: the King of the Jungle revealed to us he was no longer a tanned God admitting, "After coming out of the jungle I lost all my tan - not that I really had one to begin with!"
Continuing the theme of nakedness (we weren't complaining), Dougie added, "There was a picture in Heat magazine once, where it sort of went unnoticed that my scrotum was hanging out in the picture.
"They printed it and nobody noticed. I didn't notice! It was the next week when someone told me..."
"I was dressed like a woman as well," he added.
"Why was I dressed as a woman? Well, it was a Thursday night, of course."
Talking about their new found fame, Harry and Dougie agreed that despite both winning huge TV shows last year, their status as popstars has very much remained the same:
"In the band, Danny and Tom have always been the front men but we're all equal so I don't really think about celebrity status," Harry told us.
We broached one final question with the McFly boys; who is their celebrity crush?
"Natalie Portman is my celebrity crush," Harry said.
"I watched her in Black Swan; I try to watch her in everything. I'm quite a big fan.
"I think I'd try and avoid meeting her actually. I would be star struck. I don't think I'd be able to cope. I wouldn't know what to do."
Dougie agreed, "Yeah, Natalie Portman is my celebrity crush. We like her!
"I think I'd remember if I'd met her... I don't think I have."
We can't wait to see the performance boys! I wonder if Dougie will actually be wearing any underwear.... ?

Ja Harryn haastattelu Digital Spystä:
"McFly interview: 'We can't imagine splitting up'
Now approaching their ninth year as a band, McFly are on the cusp of an important transition: from pre-pubescent boyband to fully-fledged manband.
After a successful stint on the reality circuit which saw Dougie Poynter crowned king of the jungle on I'm a Celeb and Harry Judd win Strictly Come Dancing, the group have promptly re-entered the studio to work on their sixth studio album.
Digital Spy caught up with Harry ahead of their Wembley Stadium gig next month to find out more about said-record.
You're in rehearsals today for a show at Wembley Stadium next month. Do you still get nervous about large gigs?
"We still get quite nervous; especially with a show like this when it's not a crowd who have come out to see you. We're down at the Saracens training ground today for some rehearsals for our halftime show and to do some training with the teams, which should be fun. Getting some exercise in whilst working is handy!"
Are you planning to upstage Madonna's Super Bowl show?
"Not quite! I don't think we could ever rival Madonna - it's not really our style."
How's life in McFly been since you won Strictly?
"I had a couple of weeks off for Christmas, which I spent at home, and then I started the Strictly tour. Today is the first day that we've all been at work together for a while actually!"
Your win and Dougie's I'm a Celeb triumph have pushed the band back into the spotlight again; how's it been for the rest of the group?
"It's been good, but we haven't really been together since it all happened. The other guys have been working on the next album. We're all really looking forward to putting out some new music and getting back on the road."
Were you nervous about doing the reality shows? It can make or break a career...
"Exactly. We were both really nervous about it! Putting yourself out there is always a scary thing, and thankfully it worked out pretty well for us."
Has it encouraged Tom or Danny to get involved in reality TV?
"Now me and Dougie have won, the pressure is on (laughs)! Seriously though, I think we're going to quit at it while we're ahead."
We think Danny would be great on Come Dine With Me.
"I think Danny would love to do a cooking show actually. Learning something new is good fun and hard work, and it's always good to get out your normal routine."
Everything seemed to go quiet in the band for a while before you both entered those shows...
"I suppose it did go a bit quiet. We did an album in 2010, but we had a long gap between album four and five. We'd been going for six or seven years; it took a year and a half to make it, and we didn't do much publicity during that time. I think we realised how hard it was to get people interested again. I think we'd taken our success for granted. Thankfully the album went well and we had a big hit with 'Shine A Light', which meant we could go on tour again. At the same time though, other bands were coming through and it's hard to stay relevant."
What does your new material sound like?
"It's really hard to describe at the moment. Danny has been putting together some demos and they sound amazing - they're very carefully produced already. It's exciting when the demos themselves sound great. Danny has also been DJing and working with Roger Sanchez, which I think is having a great impact on the band as he's learnt so much more on the production side of things."
The last album was more polished than your usual output; will your next record continue that sound?
"It was definitely more mature pop, which some people didn't get. It was also a different style of songwriting. This next album is a bit more raw sounding like our older stuff, but we're still keen on keeping some of the more polished production in there. It's hard to describe at the moment!"
You worked with Dallas Austin and Taio Cruz on Above The Noise; who would you like to work with on this LP?
"I haven't spoken to the guys about it but we're definitely open to collaborating again. We're just starting to play the label the new songs, so we'll see. In a dream world I'd love to work with so many people. A female artist would be great - Jessie J would be amazing, though she's obviously doing extremely well at the moment. Like you say, in a dream world!"
Did you ever consider splitting up?
"No definitely not, unless there's something they're not telling me! I think we have something unique within the four of us. We're still going strong and we're still great mates so I can't imagine it happening any time soon. We hope we can still have success that allows us to release music and tour."

Lopuksi haluaisin esitellä teille pari projektia, jotka muut fanisivut ovat pistäneet aluilleen.
