December 26, 2001 - Fans on the Steps official Artists Direct message board are in shock over the band’s decision to break up today even after reassurance from band members that they were working on a new album just weeks ago. Said robertxs:

My two daughters are heartbroken. In the Steps Gold book under the section entitled ‘Future’, the whole band is positive about the future.

In fact, Lee says that they already have a load of songs for the fourth album and that they are not going to split up soon.

We went to the latest concert at Wembley. How much more enjoyable would it have been if we had known it was the last we would see?

My daughters feel cheated and abused.
