Gutted by a Boy Band

[przed]

Got home from seeing a Cirque du Soleil show with the family to find the news that Jason Orange has quit Take That.



I've been suspecting this might happen for a while, and also suspecting that I'd be a teary mess when it did, and I was right on both counts.

TT has been the fandom of my heart for a while now, and I've been looking forward to seeing them in concert pretty much since I stumbled into the fandom. I'm sad that when they tour next year--and I still do want to see them when they tour next year--that it will be without Jason.

This is two fannish things that have made me cry this year, starting with Lew's death. (But at the Sweetie has sensibly pointed out, Jason isn't dead, just not in the band.)

TT fandom is very emotional at the moment. But I'm sure we'll soldier on. And I'm totally going to see them next year, though I imagine it's going to be a different sort of show.
