Keating kicks booze ahead of reunion

Ronan Keating has given up alcohol in a health drive ahead of the Boyzone reunion tour.

Speaking at a charity event, he commented: "I'm on a no-carbs, no-booze regime to get in shape for the tour next year."

The singer also revealed the boyband would be under a strict practice schedule before their shows: "We're going to have eight weeks of daily rehearsals - to make sure there are no accidents."

Keating confirmed there would be a reunion tour and possibly an album last month.
