James Bourne, Matt Willis and Charlie Simpson, better known as Busted, have now started their '20th Anniversary & Greatest Hits Tour'! Tickets for the band's tour went on sale earlier this year, selling out within hours, so the boys ended up releasing even more dates for their fans.

Now that the band are on tour, we thought we'd take a look through their set list and see which hits fans can expect to see them perform on stage. From their popular tunes such as 'Crashed The Wedding' to 'Loser Kid', to their cover of Hanson's 'MMMBop 2.0', which they perform with their special guests.

Take a look through Busted's set list now:


















This set list is representative of just one gig on their tour, other gigs may have a different set list.

How did Busted announce their tour?

Busted shared the good news about their tour's extra dates shortly after their tickets went on sale saying: 'You guys are incredible. Seven new dates added, all on sale now. 💥 Ireland we’re working on getting to you too so watch this space 💥 this is going to be the most epic tour EVER'.

After teasing fans with a date and the hashtag #Busted20, the band reunited in March and announced a huge tour to celebrate their 20th anniversary.

With four Number 1 songs under their belt, and many more huge hits such as 'What I Go To School For', 'Year 3000' and 'Sleeping with the Light On' to name just a few, their tour will be BUSTING at the seams.

Busted's tour sees the band reunite after a break of three years, and perform their biggest hits to their fans across the country.
