Showing loyalty to their gay fans, Steps will be playing at Astoria again on 19 June. This is the third time in six months. We will hopefully be bringing you a special report from the night with photos and hopefully (fingers crossed) an interview, but were not promising anything! But if you live in the London area be sure to arrive early as the tickets sell out fast. They should be performing their new single and hopefully a few other songs too. Thanks to Neil for providing this news. We’ve been informed by CD:UK that there will be a Steps special on the programme in a few weeks. We’ll let you know more details in the coming weeks nearer the time. Meanwhile in the charts Tragedy is back in the box charts! While Better Best Forgotten and Thank ABBA For The Music are still hanging in the UK singles charts.

Big news from Canada too, Steps’ debut single over there – Last Thing On My Mind – has got to number 17 in the top 20 chart.
