The Cranberries to reform for live return

Dolores O'Riordan and co announce London gig and plans for new album

The Cranberries have announced they are to reform, with their first gig announced to take place at London's Royal Albert Hall.

The show will take place on March 3 next year.

Singer Dolores O'Riordan will be joined by the other original members of the Cranberries for the reformation, and she says there are plans for a new record too.

"I've decided to reunite with my former band members in The Cranberries and we will be writing new songs and performing tracks off my new album ['No Baggage'] as well as our greatest hits during the shows. I’d love to see you out there," she explained.

Christ no. Awful band and a terrible voice (IMO). Dined out on Linger until Zombie was a hit and then died off thank christ. Let's not roll them out again PLEASE!

Does that mean she did not make it as a solo artist then?

Is it me or does the write-up sound like the Dolores show with her old band invited back?

Loved them when they first came out, saw them live in Liverpool and they were OK. Bought the live video and it was bloody terrible. Now Suede, on the other hand were fantastic when I saw them. Saw Stiltskin too I think. They were alright. End of ramble about bands I saw in Liverpool.

Have most of their albums and the one time I saw them live, really enjoyed it, so yes please for Glasto.

All these bloody cranberries rumours.... Do you have to let them linger?

Err... Right. I'll get my coat.

Lets get this Loud and Clear, I would rather see myself Dying in the Sun and watch them. There just a Copycat of most other Irish bands. Their Saving Grace, however is that they are not a Zombie and Just My Imagination is needed to Put Me Down.

Yeh this could go on for ever. There track titles are just picked our of everyday conversations!

I think that there are a few stages they could play, somewhere quite intimate would suit them.

Oh God; Please, No.

There must be a hundred Philippino covers bands on the Hong Kong / Singapore / Shanghai piano-bar circuit doing way better covers of Cranberries standards than the Cranberries could ever manage.

I thought those clowns got laughed out of the building about 10 years ago?
