S Club United was the third concert tour by English pop group S Club. It was their first concert tour not to feature Paul Cattermole who left the group in 2002, and their last tour before disbanding for the first time.[1]

Background[edit]

In 2002, Cattermole quit S Club 7 to rejoin his school metal band, Skua.[2] Cattermole stayed with the group until June 2002 and his final concert before his departure was Party at the Palace, part of Queen Elizabeth II's Golden Jubilee celebrations.[3]

After Cattermole's departure, the group was renamed S Club and the remaining members re-signed their deal with Fuller and their record company. In July 2002 they announced the S Club United tour with S Club Juniors joining as the support act.[4]

"Alive", S Club's first single without Cattermole was released in November 2002 and reached number five on the UK Singles Chart. Their fourth album, Seeing Double, released the following week reached number 17.

In April 2003, S Club released their first feature film, Seeing Double. Ten days after the release of Seeing Double, during their S Club United tour on 21 April 2003, S Club announced on stage that they were breaking up.They cited a mutual split, saying it was time "to move on and face new challenges". The members later described exhaustion from hectic schedules and long filming days.[5] Fans expressed anger after S Club had denied rumours of a split only weeks prior.[6] Their final single was a double A-side, coupling "Love Ain't Gonna Wait for You", from their fourth album Seeing Double, with a new ballad, "Say Goodbye", released on 26 May, which reached number two in the UK. On 2 June, a greatest hits album, Best: The Greatest Hits of S Club 7, was released.
