THE DARKNESS TEMPTED OUT OF SHADOWS FOR TOUR?
British band THE DARKNESS are on the verge of a reunion after a U.S. entrepreneur reportedly offered the group "a small fortune" to tour.
The group was catapulted to fame with their hit single I Believe In A Thing Called Love in 2003 - but were forced to split three years later when frontman Justin Hawkins was admitted into rehab to battle a drug addiction.
But now the organiser of the Dubai Desert Rocks festival has allegedly offered the group a massive paycheque in a bid to tempt the rockers into making a new LP and touring again.
A source tells Britain's The Sun newspaper, "The offer is tabled and being studied by everyone."
Singer Hawkins now performs with the band Hot Leg, while his former bandmate and brother Dan Hawkins is the guitarist for Stone Gods.
