The managers of the '80s pop group say the Swedish band will reunite for a small European tour starting in October.
D And D Management said Per Gessle and Marie Fredriksson will play live together for the first time since 2001 at the Night of the Proms touring festival in Antwerp, Belgium.
It will then tour with the festival to a number of sites in the Netherlands and Germany.
Roxette rose to international stardom in the late 1980s with hits such as It Must Have Been Love and The Look. The band stopped performing when Fredriksson was treated for a brain tumour and hasn't returned to stage until now.
In a statement the two band members said they looked forward to performing some of their greatest hits again.

I remember Roxette -- vaguely. Can't think of a single hit of theirs but a quick Google will refresh my memory.

Well, it makes me realize that Roxette were never top stars in France. I recognize the first song as having been a hit, but the 3 other only evoke the vaguest of memories to me.
I would be very curious to see their hairstyles in 2009 compared to that stuff on their heads back then.
