Getting ready for a dose of excitement rather than apprehension before Take That's summer tour, according to Howard Donald (55). "I think it's regular to feel a bit jittery before the initial couple of shows once it all gets going again," he said to the German Press Agency. "But as we grow older and gain more life experience, we develop more anticipation to step onto the stage and perform."
The English band, known for their hits around Gary Barlow (52) and Mark Owen (51), disbanded towards the end of the 1990s and returned in 2005. With the retirement of Robbie Williams (49) and Jason Orange (53), Take That has been touring as a trio since 2014.
Barlow, a former teen idol, still appreciates the connection with the audience during live performances, suggesting it's nothing like a social media app or a TV show. "The best part is looking into the eyes of the audience," he stated.
The Brits recently released their ninth studio album "This Life" on Friday, and they will be touring Hanover, Berlin, Mönchengladbach, and Munich from the end of June as part of their "This Life Under The Stars" tour.
Long before announcing their summer tour, Take That was anticipated with high expectations by fans. After lineup changes and experimenting with new sounds, their latest studio album, "Wonderland," marked their return to pop roots in 2017. The associated tour was a hit, showcasing singles like "Giants" and "New Day," and delighting fans with high-energy performances.
People are eager for this upcoming tour, as Howard Donald expresses more excitement than apprehension due to their accumulated life experience. Meanwhile, Barlow cherishes the connection with the audience during the shows, emphasizing that it's not like being on a social media app or a TV show.
