Two members of boy band Five will appear in a Dublin court on 3 March following a brawl in a bar in the city.

Ritchie Neville, 21, and Jason Brown, 23, whose stage name is J, were arrested last month in the Palace Bar in Fleet Street.

They appeared on Wednesday morning at Dublin District Court charged with public disorder and breaching the peace.

Brown is also charged with assault.

They were remanded on continuing bail by Judge Miriam Malone, who set a trial date of 26 March.

Five's hits include Keep On Movin', Slam Dunk Da Funk and a cover version of Queen's We Will Rock You.

At an initial hearing last month, Five spokesman Neil Reading said Brown and Neville had been drinking with members of their touring party when the incident happened.

Two others were arrested at the time.
