Because It's Never Just About the Music

Fools, again 

Despite the fact that this seemed as impossible as persuading a cat that 3AM is not a good time for miaow practice, things are getting exciting in the Westlife camp. Tomorrow at 1PM the boys in the band will be giving a press conference about something relating to the future of the band. The more optimistic of us are no doubt hoping that they'll be announcing that even they have got bored of constantly releasing the same song, but with slightly different words, and have decided to stop inflicting their unexciting brand of 'music' upon the nation. In a perfect world, this would be true, but then, in a perfect world we'd never even have heard of the ugly Irishmen in the first place so that idea can go straight out of the window. It's very unlikely that this'll be the case as Westlife's sales have remained as high as their music has remained unadventurous, and given we doubt they're in it for the joy of making music, we feel that they'll stay together for as long as they sell records.

So, what could this press conference be about then? Some people suggest it's an announcement of one member's homosexuality, others suggest that one member might be about to leave, though we're not totally convinced it's possible to tell the difference between the members, so we can't see anyone really bothering about that. We feel it's far more likely that they're going to announce that neither of them possesses a penis, and that they have to urinate via a complicated funnel and tap system. If true, it would certainly explain a lot.
