But while they presented a united front, insiders say relations had not been as cordial when they met up for their first rehearsal.A major bone of contention had been members Dick Massey and Ken McCluskey’s ‘Stars Of The Commitments’ group which have been touring on the back on the film since its release
“It was more like a therapy session where everyone was asked to get anything off their chest they wanted to say. Some in the band weren’t happy that they didn’t have control or input in something that represented a part of their lives.”

Ireland will become the laughing stock of Europe if it doesn’t introduce e-voting soon, the Taoiseach said tonight.
Bertie Ahern told Opposition TDs in the Dail that a recent report on electronic voting found that it would only cost €500,000 to upgrade its software.
He rejected criticism over the troubled €52m e-voting system which still incurs annual €700,000 costs to store 7,000 machines around the country.
“Our silly old system is outdated,” Mr Ahern said.
“We have to correct the software which will cost €500,000 and then try to move forward. Otherwise we will go into the 21st Century being the laughing stock with our stupid ol’ pencils.”
