McFLY are one of the best British Pop bands in history. They are mainly known thanks to most of there charity work and there debut in Just My Luck along with Lindsay Lohan in 2006. The Rise of these talented young boys was 2002 when Tom Fletcher had a part time job filming the auditions for Universal Records so he could pay for his collage tuition. Danny Jones auditioned and Tom had a word with him after the audition to discuss starting a band. That summer they stayed in a Hotel room writing songs for the entire time they were there. Once the summer had ended the boys went back to their hometowns, Universal Records put up an advertisement for a Bassist and A Drummer on the internet and news paper … and now that’s where we meet Harry Judd and Dougie Poynter.
Dougie and Harry both originally came from Essex and they kind of met each other at the auditions for the Bassist and Drummer. Tom and Danny both thought that Dougie was the most technical Bassist of all who Auditioned, they kind of knew they had a perfect drummer before Harry strutted his stuff,
