Take That conference at Salford University sees student debate

Thu, 13 Jan 2011
Salford University is to hold an academic conference about the reunion of pop sensations Take That .

Starting in June, a week after Take That's tour begins, the conference seeks to examine 'the theme of break-up and reunion in popular music acts, focusing on Take That'.

Other bands that have reformed to enjoy success have included New Kids on the Block and East 17 . However, Take That have had a lot more success that their counterparts.

The Take That tour is a sell-out, with Take That performing at stadiums around the UK. Take That's album Progress, which saw Robbie Williams return, was the 2010's best-selling album in the UK with sales of 1.8 million copies.
