Taken from Sneak - June 2003

Charlie's in-store strop!

The Busted babe gets moody when James 'n' Matt spend, spend, spend!

They were in the middle of a hectic tour, so Busted thought the ideal way to relax recently would be with an afternoon of clothes shopping. But by the time our sneaky snapper caught up with them, Charlie was fed up with the whole experience!
Although all three boys tried on almost everything in the swanky Manchester branch of Tommy Hilfiger, and Charlie seriously considered a cool leather jacket, only James and Matt managed to find themselves some clobber, leaving their glum pal to wait by the car!

Meanwhile, James and Matt nearly get Busted!

1. Shopaholics!
While Charlie waits by the car with his big brows angrily scrunched, an excited-looking James and Matt emerge with their goodies
2. Security says 'No!'
Disaster strikes as Matt sets off an alarm and is called back by the security guard! Luckily, the store manager is on hand to sort out the mix-up
3. James pulls faces
While Matt explains his innocence, James strolls to the car and is so happy with himself that he sticks his tongue out!
4. Matt gets moody!
Now Matt's the one looking fed up as the pair join Charlie at the car and prepare to zoom off with their new gear! What a cutie!

Busted's backstage buzz!
The low-down on the boys' rockin' tour
In Busted's dressing room they always have bowls of Haribo sweets, Jaffa Cakes and cheesy Wotsits! Yum!
All the band drink bottles of mineral water to avoid dehydration of stage.
After the show the boys keep busy on their tour bus by writing songs for their next album.
The bus is equipped with home comforts including a bathroom and a chill-out lounge at the back!
The last two DVDs the boys watched on the bus were The Green Mile and Ghostbusters!
