McFly's Tom Fletcher says the band's upcoming tour is looking "bloomin awesome".

The British four-piece - also comprising Dougie Poynter, Danny Jones and Harry Judd - are preparing for their 'Memory Lane: The Best Of Tour 2013', starting in Swindon on April 19.

Fletcher took to Twitter this afternoon to share his excitement with fans.

He gushed: "Tour rehearsals are starting to come together. The set list is looking bloomin awesome!!! (sic)."

Meanwhile, Bandmate Jones has revealed his fear of flying. Despite jetting all over the world with the pop rock band, the guitarist-and-singer insists he's still not used to aeroplanes.

Speaking to the Daily Mail, the star teased:  "I go through real stages with flying. I love flying and I hate it at the same time. If I get a bump, I ask Tom if it’s ok.

He added: "I’m a nervous flyer. I keep it within myself unless there’s a bump and I go green. I'm 70 per cent bad and 30 per cent brave."
