At the beginning of this new month we see the hot new album Buzz out on the shelves to buy! So make sure you go and get your copy! Also we see the release of the new live video! The new tour is only 17 days away, with the first date at Butlins of all places! I’ll start asking for your tour reviews near that date.

I know that a few of you spotted this, but if you watched the TV Hits awards did you notice that the stage looked a little similar? With the screen at the back and the stairs on the side etc. Yes the stage did look very similar to the Steptacular tour stage! Whether it was the same stage is unknown but it looked like it was!

A UK TV show is giving viewers the opportunity to bid for items donated by celebrities and music insiders including rare tickets to see Steps and Mel C in concert. The programme, Celebrity Auction, is hosted by Ulrika Johnson and Jools Holland and will be aired tonight, 1 November at 8pm on ITV.

Viewers will be invited to bid for items from 2 November at www.celebrityauction.co.uk. The auction will last for two weeks. The bidding is expected to be fierce. Tickets to see Steps live at their sold-out Wembley Arena concert on 28 November and a pair of tickets for Melanie C’s Wembley Arena gig plus a signed photo of Mel herself are up for grabs thanks to Worldpop, sponsors of the two tours.

Other donated items from pop personalities include a pair of tickets to the honeymoon destination of solo star Louise, who will give a performance of Higher Aspirations on tonight’s show. All proceeds from the auction go to the NSPCC, the Samaritans and Centrepoint.
