Sorry I haven't had much news lately. Emily spotted Matt with Emma shopping in Staines, and says it looks like they haven't split up. She also saw Matt going into Toni and Guy, so perhaps expect a new haircut soon.

29.04.05

Remember I posted those scans a couple of weeks ago and my photobucket account died? You can still see the pics here. :-)

To answer loads of the latest questions - I don't know the name of James's band yet, I post all news as I find it.

So to post some random news.. a few people have spotted James at a Lucie Silvas concert on Wednesday at Shepherd's Bush Empire, I think.

27.04.05

Sorry I made it unclear in the last entry, but I only know the song titles, I don't have the tracks themselves.

I'm going to finish answering all the questions at the weekend because we have Monday off school as well.

26.04.05

To kick off today's news, James (my friend James, not Busted James) has sent me some cool stuff. More unreleased track titles co-written by James on the EMI publishing site, they're called:-
Believe
Perfect
Travel Back In Time
Thank you muchly for those heh. <3 I'll find out the other songwriters' names in a bit.

James is planning to tour with his new band in November - which is the rumoured time that Matt will start touring again as well hehe. Nothing is confirmed yet though. Some more James 'news' and a picture can be found here. :-)

Lots of people seem to be seeing Matt around London, apparently he's out of the Priory, and according to Victoria Newton, he's looking a lot better than he did. All good news!

Apparently there's a Matt article in Sneak as well (there would be) and Heat.

24.04.05

Sanja (Saz) posted some information on James's new band on the busted.com boards. She spoke to James on the phone and has found out that their first single (Ticket Out Of Loserville) will be released around September, and the drummer is apparently from Florida. Oo. She also said that five of the songs on their debut album will be songs that James wrote for the third Busted album - this greatest hits CD is seeming less and less likely, but at least we'll have the songs then, even if they're not by all of Busted! Hehe, she's going to try to get more information soon.

Someone told me that there is an interview later on the CBBC channel at 3.50pm with Charlie. I think that might be Newsround Showbiz, so it might be a repeat of the interview with Charlie and Al that was on Newsround the other day.

I'm about half way through the questions. I'll try to finish them tomorrow, I can't promise anything though because I have to study and sort things out.

23.04.05

Click here for a new article about James. Most important points:-
1. James has been writing loads of new tracks, a bit like Busted but with a 'harder edge'.
2. He's also written some songs for McFly's next album. Hopefully they'll be better than the ones on the first album.
3. He and Matt would reform Busted if Charlie agreed, he also wants to do a farewell tour for the fans, but he said Charlie hardly ever contacts him any more.
4. His new band has an album coming out later this year, apparently. I don't know whether to believe this though, because if my sources are correct, his band aren't even together yet, and it takes a while to get record contracts and promotions etc under way.
5. James said he's sure Matt will be fine, and that he (Matt) can't wait to start performing again.

This is all taken from when they talked to him at the launch of MAC Viva Glam lipstick - someone said that this was to raise money for an Aids charity. You can see pictures on isifa.com, wireimage.com and gettyimages.com (search 'busted' and on gettyimages, go to entertainment first).

Moving on to Matt news.. click here for a message posted by Matt's brother on the Superkicks (Darren's new band) message board.

And finally, some Charlie news - thanks to whoever sent in this - Charlie was a surprise judge at the final for Snickers Unsigned (Battle Of The Bands type of competition). Congrats to the winners, Mascara Story. :-)

I'm trying to work out the lyrics to Carry Her, there are a couple of bits I can't get at all though. Click here to read what I've got so far.

22.04.05

I'll try to get questions answered at the weekend.

But for now - EXCLUSIVE NEWS AND SONGS!! The Suffolk Explosion is out on Monday, featuring lots of Suffolk-based rock bands that Charlie admires, the funds for the CD have come straight out of his own pocket. For this reason, I WILL NOT upload songs, but I have put Charlie's solo song, Carry Her, on the radio. Enjoy it.

And now for that news you're waiting for - remember a while ago, I put some information up about a new song written by James, Charlie Grant and Pete Woodroffe called Ticket Out Of (or 'Outta') Loserville? Well rumour has it that this is going to be his new band's FIRST SINGLE!! I don't know anything more, I don't know anything about the members or any other songs, but James is busy in the studio at the moment, apparently.

It's all exciting hehe. Mucho credit to this site for some of that news. :-)

20.04.05

Click here for some news on Matt, there is also a similar article in the Mirror here, which includes Emma talking about how they have been out drinking together and she's determined to support him. I don't think they've split up, anyway. Thanks to Rich and Sarah for sending me those.

19.04.05

A couple of people have asked for the James article, so click.

There is apparently a three page thing about James in the new Heat magazine as well.

Sorry if I sounded a bit peeved yesterday, I didn't mean to. :-) <3

18.04.05

There's a stupid thing in the paper about how James has been drinking at the weekend. Big deal, he's 21 and he's allowed to. I'm sure he won't follow Matt's footsteps.

Runaway Train is available for download in the audio section, for those of you who keep asking me to put it back on the radio.. I kept being asked to change the songs on there, and now I'm being asked to change them back lol. I'm also not uploading any more songs at the moment because I've already just had to pay my friend an extra £10 to cover costs of bandwidth being used up by the downloads already on this site.

17.04.05

According to the Sunday Mirror, things have just gone from bad to worse for Matt. Emma has supposedly dumped him, claiming that she wants to get back with her ex, Alex Zane. I have no idea if this is true, I hope it's not. It's the last thing he needs right now.

16.04.05

Some news about Matt, which I'm not sure whether to believe. There is a news story in The Sun (click), also Digital Spy. Apparently there has been something about it on Sky news as well. If it's true, then let's hope he recovers soon. <3 You can leave your messages of support for Matt here.

I can't believe some of you are complaining that I haven't updated for a couple of days. Not meaning to sound arrogant, but how many sites do you know that update almost every day for over two and a half years?

For the past three or four days, I have barely rested. I started a new job, I have exams coming up, I went to a gig earlier, I literally have not had time to update. I certainly don't want to have to finally find time to check my emails, to find people saying 'you're lazy cause you haven't updated for three days'.

Sometimes, I despair. I already said I won't be able to update daily because I'm going to be extremely busy, and I think most people understand that. I have a life, strangely enough, and it doesn't revolve around updating this website.

Anyway, I've re-uploaded clip of Matt - Sunshine Lover again. :-)

Oh yeah, and I know my photobucket account has.. died. I'm going to try to sort that out soon.

To end on some random news - there was something on TV earlier called Hit Me Baby One More Time, where one hit wonders covered songs. I missed it, but apparently Nick Heyward (yes, I got that completely wrong earlier, I just read the TV guide) did Crashed The Wedding. I'm watching the results now, it just showed a clip, it seemed alright. He just missed out on getting through to the finals, though.

12.04.05

Matt - Sunshine Lover (clip) uploaded again.

By the way, how the hell was I being nasty to James in the last entry? :-s

11.04.05

I've just been sent pictures of James. Pictures from The Sun and Mirror of him 'FIGHTING'. Of sorts. I laughed, bless him.

Classic. Also a short article on it here.

I'll scan those Sneak pictures (of Matt) later if I remember.

10.04.05

So here's the deal. I go back to school tomorrow, and my exams start on May 13th, so for the next month or so, I may not update as much as usual (although knowing me, that means I'll update just as much because I can't resist, ha), and for that, I apologise, but I'm sure you all understand.

Asking me those James questions every day is not going to make me answer them any quicker, so shh. ;-) I will do it hahah.

09.04.05

A quick request - does anyone have either of these:
An August issue of New! with a page of Matt's favourite things. - thank you Sammy!
Sunday magazine with a two page Busted interview. - thank you Shazwick!
Is there any chance someone could type it up and/or scan it for me? Thank youuu. x

Again - Sunshine Lover clip.

'does james have a good sex life?' Hahahahahah, you're mad! :-D

08.04.05

Reeeeeee-uploaded Sunshine Lover clip for you. :-)

Lots of people were worried by the pictures in Sneak of Matt looking rough, my friend Maysie has been talking to someone who's friends with him, and she said that he hasn't been in a fight, he had an accident and knocked his head on a door, bless.

Name that song! Type in the band of your choice in the top bit.. the Busted ones are really easy, but it's fun. I got 9/10 for 5ive, how cool am I hahaha.

One last thing - please stop asking about James's sex life HAHAHA it's hilarious though, I'm going to make a page just for you bahah.

07.04.05

I just found a bunch of things so I thought I might as well post them up - live review, an interview with Matt and live pictures. :-)

There's going to be something about Busted on TMF on Saturday at 11-12am, as far as I can make out, it's videos chosen by them (ie. it's an old thing, probably from MTV) but it might be best videos by Busted. We'll see.

Also re-uploaded my End Up Like This, thank you for all your luffly comments. <3 Clickie.

And to answer half your questions, I know Charlie and Camilla haven't split up because my mate is friends with them and saw them most of last week.

06.04.05

Re-uploaded Sunshine Lover again (don't be scared to ask me to again, because it's a small file so I don't mind) - click. :-)

Zoe has sent me some news about James, he went to LA last week and has been writing and recording new songs.. exciting stuff hehe.

Gahhh, stop being two faced, Mr Billie Joe. Someone told me he said 'maybe Busted will release a good song one day' in NME. In Q or something, he said he likes Busted's version of Teenage Kicks and now he's saying he's going to try and get them back together at Milton Keynes. Hahaha. Spazz, make up ya mind.

Oh yeah, and I've updated the FAQ page.

05.04.05

Haha wow, the link's expired already, and it had 100 downloads.. anyway, here it is again. :-) I'm going to upload the Johnny B Goode video soon. Also written out the tab for the bridge and chorus of End Up Like This, because someone asked for it - click. That's my excuse to upload my version of End Up Like This, waheeeey. It's only the chorus, but yesh.

Speaking of Busted videos (well I was before haha), I have collaborated (of sorts) with bustedvideos.co.uk and we now share forums, so if you want to request videos, check out the new section on the Busted Online forum (link at the top of the page). :-)

By the way, I have FINISHED ANSWERING THE QUESTIONS! Go me, it's taken literally ten hours to do them all, there are SO many.. I've had to split them into two pages haha.

Aaaaaaaand guess who said they like Busted? MR TRE COOL ALA GREEN DAY! They were on radio 1 earlier (I missed it, I hope it'll be put on the website) and they were asked what upcoming bands they like, and Tre said Busted. Oo.

A bit random, but click to read my review of America Or Busted that got accepted on smartgirl.org haha.

Your questions reminded me that I hadn't scanned those TOTP unseen pictures before, so here they are:-

03.04.05

Due to a high demand, I've uploaded Sunshine Lover (clip) for you to download.

Johnny B Goode video (yes, VIDEO) coming soon, mucho credit to lovemj.tk for it, and if the owner wants me to take it down, don't hesitate to contact me.

03.04.05

You can go here to find lots of links to pre-order the Suffolk Explosion CD, I recommend Virgin or play.com because they're £7.99 with free postage in the UK.

I've revamped the forums, so check that out. If you're not signed up, why not join us? :-)

02.04.05

Vote for Crashed The Wedding. Although.. 'Busted's wedding antics gave them their first UK No.1 back in 2003.' Er no, their school dance rejections gave them their first UK no.1.

I can't believe people have been asking me if the TOTP article is true.. hahaha.

Hold on, people all over the world do have April Fools Day, don't they?

01.04.05

Haha a few people have sent me this.

I just updated the Busted radio, there are a few exclusives for you on there (End Up Like This, a live version of Johnny B Goode by Undesided featuring Matt, Sunshine Lover clip), two songs from each album and a couple of b sides. Enjoy.
