Although "Rebelde Way" and "Erreway" were popular, they were initially outshone by girl group Bandana and boy band Mambrú, winners of the first and second season of reality show "Popstars". Both bands were managed by Cris's ex-husband and his company, RGB Entertainment. For the first time in seven years, Morena didn't have the opportunity to use Teatro Gran Rex during winter vacations since the venue was occupied by Bandana. In the year-end best-selling ranking, Erreway's Señales ranked as the third-best-seller of the year, following Bandana and Mambrú. However, Morena and Gustavo had an extremely amicable relationship: Morena directed Bandana's first series of Gran Rex concerts and Gustavo helped organize Erreway's first live show which would happen for free at Abasto shopping mall, repeating the successful Bandana's Abasto live debut in 2001. Besides, Mambrú and Bandana songs were owned by Mardi Grass Publishing, which is the music publishing company owned by Morena and Gustavo in association. Rebelde Way's first-season finale also featured a highly promoted cameo by Bandana.
