TWO big boy bands of the 1990's are on the bill at Eastleigh's Concorde Club tonight.

The Stoneham Lane venue's 'Boyband Special' will feature 5ive and 911.

Five are a hugely successful British boy band from the late 90’s / early 00’s consisting of Scott Robinson, Ritchie Neville and Sean Conlon.

The band enjoyed remarkable success worldwide, particularly in the United Kingdom, throughout Europe, Asia, Australasia, North and South America.

Everybody Get Up, When The Lights Go Out, and 12345 are just some of their most memorable hits of the late 90s and early 00s.

They split up in September 2001, after selling over 20 million records worldwide, having 11 top ten singles and four top ten albums in the UK, selling out Arena tours, and picking up just about every achievable award including Brits and MTV

Members of the band reunited as part of The Big Reunion documentary series.

As for 911, Britpop and club music collided across the UK when Jimmy Constable met Simon 'Spike' Dawbarn whilst working as a dancer on the cult late-night TV show "The Hit Man and Her". Jimmy and Spike started to receive more recognition than the acts they were dancing for and decided to start a pop group of their own. 911 was born...

Lee Brennan soon joined and after achieving two consecutive top 40 singles independently the fledgling 'boy band' were soon snapped up by Virgin Records after a major label bidding war. The band crossed over as the boys scored their first top ten hit in May 1996 in the UK with the single 'Don't Make Me Wait'. 911 had arrived. Nine more successive hits followed including the top 5 singles "More Than A Woman" (2) their massive signature anthem "Bodyshakin" (3) and their first UK number one "A Little Bit More".

911 were one of only five music acts to score 10 consecutive Top Ten hits in the 90's and the band enjoyed success with 4 hit albums between 1997-1999 including the top ten hit albums "Moving On" and "There It Is". The band soon became one of the biggest selling tour acts in the UK in that period with their energy and charisma enchanting fans in the UK.

Despite global success, after an intense five years of 18 hour days the band decided to split in 2000 and with hundreds of tearful fans in attendance they announced their break-up live on Chris Moyles' Radio 1 show.

In late 2012, it was announced that 911 would be reuniting for the ITV2 documentary TV series "The Big Reunion" and a 16 date sell-out arena tour followed, with a Christmas tour also in 2013.

The renaissance of 911 continues with the release of their brand new album 'Illuminate... The Hits and More" which includes seven new original tracks - one of which is the critically acclaimed first new single for 14 years '2 Hearts 1 Love' and seven re-records of some of their greatest hits.
