What living band would you like to see reunite for one last tour?

[motely36]

I'd like to see Bread. I know it may sound dumb, but I really liked them :)

I'd see Styx too if Dennis DeYoung was with them.

I finally got to see Simon and Garfunkel last year.

I can't think of any others off the top of my head.

[medeak]

1. nothing dumb about Bread! n/t

[sniffa]

2. the vaseLines

since the pixies just did it.

then house of pain

[meegbear]

3. Pink Floyd with Roger Waters

QED

[jpgray]

4. and Syd Barrett. That would be more fun. (nt)

[meegbear]

42. True, true ...

but I've accepted the fact that he can't perform :-(.

[postulater]

9. Floyd in any form

[salvorhardin]

5. I was just going to say Styx

That's the first thing that popped into my head when I read your subject line. If Styx would get back together (the real Styx -- JY Young, Tommy Shaw, Dennis DeYoung, Chuck Panozzo) and DeYoung, Shaw and Young would collaborate on some new tunes in their old style, no crappy Beatles covers, then that'd be awesome. I think there's a couple of really big egos in the way though (DeYoung and Shaw).

[Wickerman]

6. The feelies

or Spacemen 3

[RagingInMiami]

7. Rage Against the Machine

In Washington D.C. for the presidential inauguration.

[sniffa]

13. oooh, good one

[RagingInMiami]

19. Can you imagine the riot that would ensue?

[KDLarsen]

28. Eh, a bit 2-sided on this one...

.. On one side, they really put on some high-energy shows. On the other, they were one of the bands back in 2000, that told young people not to vote, because Gore & * were the same.

[RagingInMiami]

29. I'm sure they realize how wrong they were

[Jessica]

8. Phish. n/t

[Coventina]

10. XTC---together, but they no longer tour.

I would really, really love to see them.
:-(

[tigerbeat]

21. well, andy partridge is about all that's left....

....with the fuzzy warble releases, it's pretty clear that colin moulding is now just a "sometime collaborator" vis a vis XTC.

i got to meet both of them twice. despite my complete geeked-out bliss, they were quite lovely and nice to me.

[bbernardini]

11. Spock's Beard with Neal Morse; Genesis (any 70s lineup)

They still rock hard without him, but I never got to see them live with him. :(

As for Genesis, I'm not one of those types who thinks Genesis was worthless after Gabriel left, so I'd love to see either of the 70s lineups back together. Actually, I think I'd really like to see the Hackett/Rutherford/Banks/Collins/Bruford lineup.

[warrens]

12. Sparks, Doll by Doll, ...

Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel, The Subhumans...lotta others.

Styx reforms from time to time. Unfortunately.

[LDS Jock]

14. ABBA... I'm such a queen.. perhaps a Dancing Queen

I LOVE ABBA!!!

[motely36]

16. Abba could be fun

[Catfight]

36. Yes, ABBA, and wear the same outfits!LOL

[pdx_prog]

45. I used to spend a lot of time in Sweden....

It's like they never quit playing....lol

Ace of Base got the country swooning, but not like Abba....

[Worst Username Ever]

15. Vanilla Ice

Just kidding!

[bif]

17. Gong, Blodwyn Pig, or the ORIGINAL Fleetwood Mac

the one with Peter Green, et al.

[tigerbeat]

18. Talking Heads n/t

[MnFats]

44. i second 'talking heads'

i would pay about any amount to see a performance of the same quality as 'stop making sense,' one of the best concert films ever.


speaking of concert films, it would be great fun to see The Band too.

[11 Bravo]

20. West, Bruce, and Laing.

(I think they are still ticking.)

[AccessGranted]

22. The Knack

I just gotta here hear that song "My Sharona" performed one more time. I loved that fractured beat and stuttering, sputtering lyrics. That was the coolest song.

[bif]

32. A saw them about a year ago

They still tour.

[Forkboy]

23. The Didjits

[motely36]

24. I must be out of touch, cause I've never heard of a lot of these bands!

:)

[Beer Snob-50]

25. blotto

I want to be a lifeguard!!!

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

26. Phish!

nt

[ekhunter]

27. backstreet boys

[cedahlia]

30. Soundgarden n/t

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

31. The Smiths (but it'll never happen)

[the Princess]

33. The Rolling Stones

Aren't they the "Living Dead" these days???

[pdx_prog]

46. They said "living" band.....

The Stones have been dead for many years....lol

[Gothic Sponge]

34. Buddy Holly and the Crickets

Why did they ever break up?

:silly:

[dave123williams]

35. The Band.

[pdx_prog]

47. I'll second that!

[Gothic Sponge]

37. Van Halen with Dave.

[dean_dem]

38. The Smiths

I think VH1 tried for that Bands Reunited show. But yeah, it'll never happen.

[Gothic Sponge]

39. Yes, i'd love to see the Smiths again.

[Mike Daniels]

40. The classic Genesis line-up

Gabriel, Banks, Rutherford, Collins and Hackett.

Was way to young to ever see them at their peak and it would be a blast to see the stage show with Gabriel's costumes.

[SmileyBoy]

41. Nirvana.

That's right, Nirvana, sans-Cobain. Dave Grohl could be the lead guitar/vocals, Chris Novoselic would be the bass, Pat Smear would be the other guitar and former drummer Chad Channing would play drums.

I'd love to see that. Nirvana was more than just Kurt, you know. They say Grohl was the whole brains behind the band.

[ProfessorGAC]

43. The Police

And, btw, Dennis DeYoung is a tool!
The Professor

[pdx_prog]

48. Cream...
