Keating rules out Boyzone reunion

Ronan Keating says he won't be reuniting with Boyzone for a tour and is instead planning to release his fourth solo album.

A statement on his official website said: "Ronan has no plans to get back together with Boyzone just now.

"The guys remain good friends but with a new solo album coming out Ronan is not able to commit to a Boyzone reunion at present."

Boyzone's Stephen Gately revealed at the weekend that he along with Mikey Graham, Keith Duffy and Shane Lynch would reform for a comeback tour.
