Take That officially came Back For Good last weekend, including an appearance from Robbie Williams, as a hologram.

They appeared before 9,000 fans at the Newcastle Arena to kick off a tour of 11 destinations over the next two months.

Tickets for the group whose hits included, A Million Love Songs and Could It Be Magic, sold out in a record 30 minutes last December after the band announced they would regroup for a tour.

The band will play 29 dates in destinations including Birmingham, Glasgow, Sheffield, Manchester, London, Dublin, Belfast, Cardiff and Milton Keynes.

Band members, Gary Barlow, Mark Owen, Jason Orange and Howard Donald have left an open invitation for Robbie Williams to also join them.

One fan, Robert Jackson told PinkNews.co.uk, “There were some tearful moments and it really took me back to my younger days.

“I want to go again.”

Take That’s last performance was in 1995 at London’s Earls Court.
