The Specials are on the road to reforming after a hiatus of some 27 years.
Vocalist Neville Staple has revealed that the band has been rehearsing and there was a possibility of a tour on the horizon. He said: “A couple of months ago we started talking. We had to talk first to see if we could get on, but we got past the talking stage. Then we said, ‘okay, let’s see what we’re like in a room together rehearsing with instruments.’
Speaking to Music Week, Staple said: “We’re just seeing how it goes. If it gels, it gels. If it doesn’t, you don’t wanna go out there as some old geriatrics – not me. What we’ve got to do is make sure the music at least is right. So if it works, we’ll do it. If not, well, I’m sorry lads and girls but we’re trying.”
Stay tuned to MOJO for all the latest Specials updates.
Don't forget to pick up the current issue of MOJO which features a 13-page Specials feature with brand new interviews from the band and all the other major ska-punk players!

This should be interesting....
Will they be playing to ghost crowds... or real crowds of fans.... in ghost towns or real towns.
Or is it another group of middle aged blokes needing a extra pay cheque?....

I'd only go to see them if Jerry and Terry are on board, especially Jerry. Otherwise it'll be a waste of money and time...
