Signing dates

November 25 – HMV Leeds, 5:30pm
November 28 – HMV Cardiff, 5:30pm
November 29 – HMV Southampton, 5:30pm

The Oxford Street signing is a little different to the rest, as 280 fans will have the opportunity to meet Busted and also see them perform the day before the album is released. Busted will be signing a CD booklet for fans as the album won’t have been released yet, however, they will receive the album itself in the post. You need to pre-order here to gain entry, and more information can be found on the HMV website.
The other four signings are restricted to 450 wristbands, which are available from the stores now. Any left over on the day will be given out on a first come, first served basis. Full information is available on the HMV website.
As well as taking over venues, Busted will soon be taking over our TV screens with exclusive performances on Sunday Brunch (Channel 4, November 13), Children In Need (BBC1, November 18), and The X Factor (ITV, November 27).
