[21] Craig Logan wished the Goss brothers success with the concerts, but confirmed he was not interested in taking part in the reunion. [32] A UK tour was scheduled, with a second date at the O2 Arena and shows in Manchester, Glasgow, Birmingham and Newcastle upon Tyne, but all the dates except the two shows in London and the show in Manchester were later cancelled, with the band blaming "unforeseen logistical circumstances". [36] Bros reissued a remixed version of "I Owe You Nothing" as a single in June 1988, which became their only number one single in the UK. [9] The song peaked at number two in Ireland [10] and in the top ten in eight other countries across the world, as well as giving them their second top ten hit on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart. [11] Two further singles were released from Push, "I Quit" in September 1988, which entered the UK charts at number four, [9] and "Cat Among the Pigeons", which was released in November 1988 as a double A-side with a version of the Christmas carol " Silent Night" and entered the UK charts at number two.
