Want to know why Take That are spitting feathers over the plans for a musical featuring a Take That tribute band? a) EMI sold the rights in 2005 when nobody in their right minds would have been a buyer; b) the stage Take That will be younger, buffer and most importantly they'll have a Robbie! This opens up the possibility of a Menudo-style continuation of the brand with older members being regularly shipped out and replaced by younger ones. Hooray for capitalism!
