 The brothers announced in October they were reuniting to play
at London's O2 Arena on Aug. 19 -- some 28 years after
performing at Wembley Arena to an audience of 77,000. They have
since added further dates around Britain.
Known for songs such as "When Will I Be Famous?" and "I Owe You
Nothing", the band formed in 1986 with bassist Craig Logan.
Logan left after three years and the twins stopped playing
together in 1992.
"We had a civilized conversation about the process of becoming a
unified force again and just putting on a show that we knew
would blow people's minds," Goss, who lives in the United States
but is back in Britain for a solo Christmas tour, told Reuters.
"We really want to put on the best show we can ... We're
genuinely excited about being on stage again together ...
Obviously if we're going to come back, we want to make sure that
it's ... just something where people go 'Wow'."

Goss, 48, went on to carve out a solo career and has recently been
performing at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas.
"I love being in the States and I love that I've made some new fans
in America and been able to connect with a new audience," he said.
His Christmas tour will include covers and festive numbers alongside
his own songs.
"There's definitely going to be some Christmas stuff - but it's very
smoky, easy, kind of almost like a New York jazz kind-of feel."
