Blazin Squad announce reunion
By Chris Cooke | Published on Thursday 10 August 2017
While Blazin Squad may be on the bill for the Now That’s A Festival in Dagenham this weekend, squeezed in there between 911 and Dane Bowers, we’d like to point out that that show is not the official reunion.
Please note that. In fact, I need you all to write it on a post-it note and put it somewhere prominent. Probably next to the kettle. But not immediately above the kettle. We all know the steam would cause the sticky bit to lose its stickiness and then the post-it note would fall behind the coffee jar and tea bag box, and then you might forget that the official Blazin Squad reunion is on 26 Nov at Koko in London and not in Dagenham this weekend. And just imagine if you forgot that! Donald Trump ending humanity in its entirety via a reckless skirmish with North Korea would be nothing compared to that.
So, yes, eager to capitalise on Rocky B’s new found fame courtesy of his involvement in the bizarrely popular ‘Love Island’ show – where he appeared under the stage name Marcel Somerville – him and much of the rest of the Squad are reuniting for an “exclusive live show” at Koko on 26 Nov. And who else is taking part you ask? Well, only Krazy, Melo, Spike-E, Freek, Reepa and your main man Tommy B. Good times.
Say the Squad in perfect unison: ”It’s exciting to be doing what we love, with the people we love, for the people we love”. And all thanks to the island of love. Lovely.
