The boys were guests at Wayne’s 18th birthday and now hope to see the football ace attend one of the upcoming dates on their hotly anticipated 20th Anniversary & Greatest Hits Tour
Chart topping band Busted have opened up about their past history with former English professional footballer Wayne Rooney.
The What I Go To School For hitmakers – aka James Bourne, 39, Matt Willis, 40, and Charlie Simpson, 38 – have an unlikely friendship with 37-year-old Wayne. The band were invited to the former Manchester United player’s 18th birthday back in the early noughties and they may reunite when Busted hit the road on tour next month.
The band have been together for 20 years and will release a new album featuring duet versions of old songs with iconic bands including Wheatus and Dashboard Confessional. They are also embarking on a 20th Anniversary & Greatest Hits Tour that kicks off in Portsmouth on September 2.
And while they are on the road, the boys hope to see Wayne in the audience. Discussing their history with the footballer with The Sun on Sunday, the lads recalled being invited to perform at Wayne’s 18th at Aintree Racecourse.
