Mel C has promised she is doing everything she can to ensure another Spice Girls tour will happen next year.

2021 will mark 25 years since the band introduced themselves to the world with debut single, 'Wannabe'. Mel C said there's high hopes for a 25th anniversary tour.

"It would be rude not to!" the singer told ITV's Lorraine this week, when asked whether the band will look to mark the milestone with a tour. "We had the most incredible year last year, playing stadiums and we have got to do it again. We talk about it all the time."

The pop star, who performs solo as Melanie C, added: "Of course this year has thrown everything into chaos, I think a lot of the big artists that were planning to perform this year will move to next year, so sadly it probably will delay the Spice Girls getting back on stage, but I'm doing everything in my power to make that happen."

Last year's tour reunited Mel C (Melanie Chisholm aka 'Sporty Spice'), Mel B (Melanie Brown aka 'Scary Spice'), Emma Bunton ('Baby Spice') and Geri Horner ('Ginger Spice'). Victoria Beckham ('Posh Spice') was absent from the UK stadium tour, deciding to instead focus on her family and fashion business.

Speaking about the Spice Girls' bond, Mel C added: "We appreciate each other now more than ever.

"We love each other and drive each other mad in equal measures, but we're like family. It's just one of those situations."

Horner, formerly Halliwell, quit the band in 1998 and the rest of the girls disbanded in 2001.

They reunited for a world tour in 2007, which included Beckham, and last performed as a five-piece at the 2012 London Olympics opening ceremony.

Melanie C released her eighth solo album, titled 'Melanie C', earlier this month. In a three-star review, NME's Rhian Daly wrote: "Sporty Spice delivers her best work in decades with an ode to self-love inspired by a new generation of girl power espoused by Shura, Nadia Rose and more".

While I applaud that all the major vendors seem to be focusing on more integrated advisor and investor experiences, far too many of them are solving to that by rushing to the same unrealistic spot. They all want to be your "portal" or your "one stop shop." What we need instead are industry standards for the exchange of complex data (like financial plans, proposals, and performance data) so that it isn't only easier to integrate different best-of-breed systems together, but it's easier for advisors to move with confidence betw

beyond the valley 2022 :: Article Creator All The Fun With None Of The Buzz, The Story Behind Montana's Only Non-alcoholic Bar Hold My Bar is a fascinating blend of contradictions. It's a bar that observes Dry January all year, serving zero-proof and non-alcoholic drinks. But it's not just any bar — it's a 1976 horse trailer transformed into a prohibition-era oasis. And despite its modest Instagram following, Hold My Bar has a dedicated fan base that travels to farmers markets in Whitefish, Columbia Falls, and Kalispell for a taste of its refreshing concoctions. Since February, Hold My Bar, Montana's first non-alcoholic bar, has been a hub of community activity. From its vintage horse trailer, uniquely named beverages like "The Witch Doctor" and "Magical Rose Margarita" are served al fresco, both in the Flathead Valley during weekday markets as well as at pop-up locations across the state.

sarasota music festival :: Article Creator Musicians Playing By Ear In Improvised Sarasota Music Festival Concerts Cellist Mike Block has warm memories of the two summers he spent studying and performing as a fellow at the Sarasota Music Festival in 2003 and 2004. "It was the combination of the music, the people and the weather. The Sarasota Music Festival was the only festival I ever returned to when I was student age," Block said. He's returning for the first time this summer as a faculty member who plans to shake things up and hopefully change how the participants – and audiences – think about and perform music. Block began exploring improvisation and non-Western music during his undergraduate years at Cleveland Institute of Music and while earning his graduate degree at Juilliard, and since then, "my professional direction has taken me very explicitly away from Western classical music.
