I was thinking just recently that I wish Way Out West would come back.

And they have.

King Trigger next, puh-leez.

Or BowWowWow could just do some Ukay gigs - I am so not over her yet.

Only two words The Jam,never gonna happen though,Weller and Foxton are working together at the moment which has resulted in Rick Buckler leaving From the Jam,what did he say about Weller,if i was lying in a ditch and my kids were starving and wearing rags i still wouldnt work with him.You think Hooky and Barney are bad.

She must be in her late forties!:laugh:

Actually.. I'd like to see Leftfield back, although Paul seems to still be doing a roaring trade as a posh fishmonger in Dulwich, every time i go past.

Annabella Lwin's just 43. She was underage in BowWowWow, remember? :baby:

Actually, Vicky Fuzzbox was on Buzzcocks recently. She's just turned 40. Her legs went on forever, and then some. Don't want Fuzzbox back, but she's welcome any day of the week.

Leftfield are a good shout. Apparently PiL have been doing 'Open Up' on this tour. Nice.

They did, briefly, for a one-off gig in Reykjavik back in November 2006. I contemplated on going, but it was shortly after the New Order tour and I had no holidays/cash (considering price of beer in Iceland) left! :p

As for the band that I wish would come back - I'd have to agree with Leftfield - spectacularly failed to see them first time round, so wouldn't mind the opportunity to see them again... As Bert says, you'd have to find somebody to cover the fish market whilst they're out on tour, though! :)

Most of the dance bands that appeared on TOTP circa early 90's. D-ream, M-People, EMF, K-Klass, Simply Red etc

As Nick said, they did a one-off gig in 2006. I saw them live in '89. The third band I ever saw. Awesome. And aye, Bjork, one most defineately would.

Barring any picks that would require moving the Earth to reconcile irreconcilable differences or raising the dead, I'd have to say:

The Máiréad Nesbitt Band Babylon Zoo The Dream Academy The Buggles

Some pre-2000 incarnation of The Psychedelic Furs would be cool to see one more time (realistically this'd probably have to be the World Outside era group).

I'd like to see Pulp come back at some point. It's entirely possible as I don't think they massively fell out to begin with, more fizzled out. Cocker's solo stuff has generally been pretty good - the first album brilliant the second one "ok" - but they were missing something. The last Pulp one "We Love Life" is a brilliantly weird album starting with those two bizarre odes to weed and ending with the epic "Sunrise". Love it.

Aside from that and as others have said Leftfield probably. PiL as well but they've just recently reformed anyway. Always found them much more interesting than the Pistols in terms of the musak.

Bob Mould is in my kitchen cooking Christmas dinner. Really.

I told him about this thread and he said 2012 is the 20th anniversary for Copper Blue, so he's already been thinking about it. He'd remaster/reissue the catalog and tour.

Any chance of getting him to kiss and make up with Grant and Greg?

Husker Du would be my choice...

Or maybe:

Not a band but like to hear something from Richard D James "Aphex Twin"/"AFX", thou the myth is probably better than reality...

Greg wouldn't be a problem, but Grant - no way.

Bob's been working on his biography with Michael Azerrad for the past year. It'll be out sometime in 2011, and he's insinuated that if there ever was a chance of Husker Du getting back together, the book will kill it.

The Ocean Blue, and the original Dream Academy.

Sugar would be great to see reform, performing the whole Copper Blue album or something. Tell Mr. Mould to do it, Mr 50 quid!

Yup, I heard about that. Grant has said that he'd be happy if he never saw Bob again. Shame really. Makes any kind of New Order "split" look trivial. Then again, queens are always a bit more bitchy :wink:

I'll be buying Bob's book though :thumb:
