A1 to reunite for G-A-Y performance
Boyband A1 are to reunite for a performance at London's G-A-Y nightclub.
Three of the pop group's original members - Ben Adams, Christian Ingebrigtsen and Mark Read - will take to the stage at the central London venue on March 7.
A message on the G-A-Y website reads: "TAKE ON ME & BE THE 1ST TO BELIEVE that it's nearly the SAME OLD BRAND NEW YOU with BEN, MARK & CHRISTIAN reforming for G-A-Y."
However, there is no mention of the group's fourth original member Paul Marazzi.
Formed as a four-piece in 1998, A1 notched up nine chart hits before splitting after Marazzi left the group in 2002. They reached number one with 'Same Old Brand New You' and a cover of a-ha's 'Take On Me'.
Adams hinted that the group might launch a comeback while appearing on Celebrity Big Brother in January. An A1 Greatest Hits CD was released by Sony Music earlier this month.

Reformation
The four band members formed a MySpace group in November 2008 to keep fans updated of their progress . In February 2009, it was announced that three of the members, Adams, Ingebrigtsen and Read, would reunite for a performance at the G-A-Y club in London on March 7 2009.
All band members except Paul Marazzi are up for doing a reunion. They will start recording their comeback album in June and the release is round about September. If all goes well there may be a tour round about Christmas time.
