The Choirboys? A pathetic experiment by some big egos in the industry - who did not appreciate the power of fan-based support, anyway.
I am not shedding one single tear for the demise of the Choirboys - although, it's the people involved with their initial popularity who "should be demised".
I pity the boys involved - but really, the powers that be are culpable in extremo.

The Choirboys pick up platinum disc Ely's young singing stars, The Choirboys, have just received a platinum disc for their album as sales top £300,000. The album was released on the Universal label two years ago and featured King's School pupils and former choristers, Patrick Aspbury (left of photo) and CJ Porter-Thaw (right), along with Ben Inman, a chorister at Southwell Minster. Although the boys days as choristers are over, both Patrick and CJ are still taking an active part in the musical life of the school. Patrick, now 14, is a music scholar in Year 10 in senior school and a member of the King's Barbers, the close harmony group of former choristers. CJ, who is 12 and in Year 8, his final year in King's Junior School, expects to join the King's Barbers next term. Source: Ely Standard Article posted by: xcept

Is that the first and last album of the Choirboys? I heard that they won't make other albums because the boys's voices will be change with adult voices.... I would be very sad if the boys won't continue to sing.
