Bros

Twins Luke and Matt Goss were the real heart throbs in the band, the third member was Craig (who was later ousted bacause he didn't match their blonde image).

They were the biggest new sensation in 1988 despite the fact that they wore mascara and lip gloss, contradicting their macho image.

Their fan club was more than fanatical. The really serious Brosettes went round in groups wearing Bros jackets, ripped jeans and Doc Martins with a Grolsch bottle top attatched to the laces. They would pretend to faint to get attention and even hung around the Goss brothers' house in Peckham.
