Who Should be the Next Band to Reform?

OK... no one put Joy Division purleeasee...

I just watched some recently added New Fast Automatic Daffodils vids on Youtube, and i feckin loved em.

Come on chaps, get out them guitars again.

Also obviously, Leftfield, Orbital, The Beatles, and Bill Haley and the Comets.

The Killers, maybe they could "reform" into a band that plays good songs all the time

In all seriousness:

The Smiths REM (bring Bill Berry back!) Talking Heads The Modern Lovers Psychedelic Furs Monty Python :p

They keep bloody playing 'Pretty in Pink' at every festival/jolly up in UK they get invited to in recent years. So I imagine so.

The Police just got back togeather

CHINA CRISIS! They toured recently.Top band,bit boring live though.

How about...err...

WET WET WET! (FOOK!):dead:

The one group i would like to see reform,if only to see them play stuff from their first 4 albums would have to be Big Audio Dynamite. I loved them when i was a teenager,had the B.A.D. baseball cap an all that!

Class live. saw them at Leeds workies club 93. 200 there,tops! Very intimate and ace! Mick Jones is smashin fella.

Applecart remains one of my all timers. Medicine show,is another quality offering amongst others come to think of it.Great band

Speaking of Mick Jones, has anyone heard that new project he's in with Mr. Blur? The Good, the Bad, and the Queen, is it? Which one's the Queen?

Spear of Destiny (with Stan Stammers) BAD Stone Roses The Cult Pink Floyd New Order

mick jones? it's paul simonon you're thinking of....

saw them last weekend - first night of the tour. were alright

Cocteu Twins. Came very close last year. Announced live dates and everything. All went to shit though and will now apparently never happen.

New Order. Maybe The Cocteau Twins. I don't think anyone else has anything timely or relevant to present. Maybe I'm wrong. We'll see.

would love to see that, but not quite sure if Mal's ready to leave Australia to get back on the music treadmill.

i HAVE BEEN to a party at NEILs during my teens.He was more of an ARTIST than singer then.I was born and bred in DARWEN and am the same age as NEIL although we went to different schools.Was strange seeing himhave 5 mins of FAME.I now live on a CEILING too!

Talking Heads The Police Jane's Addiction Velvet Underground The Smiths

Cabaret Voltaire...Oh YES

The Stone Roses...Yep

Chapterhouse...Hmmm...interesting thought

Adorable?

The original line-up of The Specials?

P.W.E.I.?

Jesus and Mary Chain - oh yeah, that happened last week.

Ratz, I'd better duck - people are going to start throwing things at me

In my eyes you need all the original members to 'Reform'........'Talking Heads' would be the bollox...live in Central Park

I've only just noticed this thread. I agree that Electribe 101 would be good for a comeback, however didn't they have a massive row when recording demos for the unreleased second album which resulted in Billie Ray Martin going solo and the others carrying on as The Groove Corporation - don't know of anything they've done. I didn't actually know BAD had split up but I liked them back in the day and it would be interesting to hear something new from them. Cheers!

I heard Information Society is getting back together. Whether that is what people want remains to be seen.

Scary part is who the bassist is....Eddie Van Halen's 15 year old son!!! Original bassist Michael Anthony had sense to sit out

Tho to extend it....Jack you got hope, dude

Meh, time to put some bloody American two cents now...

Bands that would make my life stellar if they reformed...

--New Order. 'Nuff said. --Stone Roses. --The Smiths. [Come on Mozz, get the f*ck over the quarelling with you and Marr and get back together and GO ON A FRECKIN' TOUR!!!] --Bauhaus--wait, they already did/are. --R.E.M.

...when my mind's not so fooked up I'll think of more.

New Order with Gillian Portishead

adorable? the best selling band on creation before oasis came aolong? they did do a one off gig at a family wedding in 97 or 98 i think it was, at least one of them is now far more into dance music than their stuff though.

as for pwei - didn't they already do a reunion tour? surely if a band ever sold more t shirts than reccards it was them!

I burst out laughing the first time I saw it, it's brilliant!

Damnit, now I know what I should put on the siggie again. Bloody heck.

And spare me the annoyoance of my 'Brit-speak wanna-be' self. Trust me, I'd rather be British than American. Then I can say that I belong to the country where the music actually kicks ass!

Rarely does American music interest me. I think I'll bring back dancing Ian.

ETA:

Sorry. I just felt like using this emotie instead of that other...

aww heck. Never mind.

Oh and yes, I think that The Verve should reform. Get over the damn rivalry and get back on the road, Ashcroft!!!

A band that I think should reform: Frank Sinatra

Haven't heard from them in years :D

'Mansun'.Had some great tunes and were a great live act.
