Wish List: Bands You’d Most Like to See Reunite

8/7/06, 3:10 pm EST

rage against the machineLast month we posted about a big, super-special reunion planned for next year’s Glastonbury festival. Our first guess was that it was going to be the Faces, but since then Rod Stewart has debunked that notion. “I haven’t talked to Woody in years,” Stewart told Rolling Stone about his former bandmate Ron Wood, “He’s dropped off the face of the earth.” (Our money is now on a Genesis reunion with Peter Gabriel at the helm.)

In any case, all this has got us thinking about other dormant bands we’d like to see resurrected. To qualify there must be enough key living members for a reunion to be feasible. (Zeppelin without Bonham would qualify, but the Beatles without John and George won’t.)

Here’s our list. Which ones are we missing?
The Kinks
Buffalo Springfield
Pink Floyd
Led Zeppelin
The Talking Heads
The Smiths
Rage Against The Machine
Pavement
The Stone Roses

The Jesus and Mary Chain
Ride
Faith No More

johnnygunit | 8/7/2006, 3:35 pm EST

Misfits (with Danzig)
Blur
Blink-182
NWA
Jets to Brazil
Name Taken
The Pixies
Primus
The Smashing Pumpkins
Something Corporate
Transplants
Van Halen

Carl | 8/7/2006, 3:58 pm EST

bobbie | 8/7/2006, 4:49 pm EST

soundgarden and rage against the machine, it’s time to end audioslave.

nicu99 | 8/7/2006, 4:50 pm EST

PHISH– The most likely to actually reunite.Only if they actually do it right not just another run like last time.

How about Sqeeze and XTC, two highly-underrated bands?

Matthew | 8/7/2006, 4:56 pm EST

Kyuss.

I like Queens of the Stone Age, but they’re just not the kick in the ass Kyuss was. They only broke up because their style of music wasn’t marketable at the time. It would be now. It sounds fresh as ever today.

Soundgarden
Paw
Quicksand
The Pharcyde
Screaming Trees(The fist fights would be entertaining at live shows)
Smashing Pumpkins
Stone Temple Pilots

Matthew | 8/7/2006, 5:01 pm EST

How about the Jackson 5? That would be hilariously akward

M | 8/7/2006, 5:03 pm EST

Led Zeppelin will not reunite BECAUSE John Bonham is not there

I would like to see the Police reunite.

Uncle Tupelo would be sweet too!
The original Guns n Roses and Derek and the Dominoes

Mike | 8/7/2006, 5:08 pm EST

Guns n’ Roses w/ all original members and Matt Sorum on drums. Steven Adler looked too f’ed up on the VH1 Behind the Music to ever play drums again.

HUSKER DU
PAVEMENT
PIXIES
PRIMUS

Van Halen

Van Halen
Van hAlen AND
VAN HALEN!!!!!!!!

Matt2.0 | 8/7/2006, 5:17 pm EST

Hey the Who Reunited without Keith Moon and it does seem there music is in demand so really anything is possible. I would leave to see White Zombie get back together but considering everything rob does its highly unlikely. I would love to see Van Halen get back together with diamond Dave.

manbearpig | 8/7/2006, 5:21 pm EST

Soundgarden, and STONE TEMPLE PILOTS!!!

Mitch Norton | 8/7/2006, 5:29 pm EST

Suede under the name of Suede (and not as The Tears) with the glamour and the drama they had on Dog man star… and break-up again after the release of their record.

SterileEyes | 8/7/2006, 6:11 pm EST

GUNS N’ ROSES!!!! Bring Sorum and Adler and if Adler OD’s, Sorum can play his stuff anyway.

…and VH with both singers swapping sets

SOUNDGARDEN/RAGE tour

STP/GNR tour

Ben Folds Five
Primus
Rage Against the Machine
The Cars
Talking Heads
Devo

PinkPick | 8/7/2006, 6:14 pm EST

The Police and Husker Du would definately be my first picks for a dream reunion.

But when it comes down to bending the rules… GUNS N’ ROSES PLEASE!!! I mean, come on! Who considers the current lineup to be the real-deal!? That abomination needs to be castrated and left for dead!

Paul | 8/7/2006, 6:15 pm EST

The Kinks

Stick and/or Paw
Zodiac Mindwarp and the Love Reaction.
16 Horsepower.

UNCHAINME | 8/7/2006, 6:27 pm EST

CLASSIC VAN HALEN W/ DLR
GUNS N’ ROSES

This list is a JOKE for not having those two. Made some of the Greatest Rock And Rollin’ Tunes Ever.

Blake | 8/7/2006, 6:28 pm EST

I have to say that while Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd sound like great answers, I feel like most of what would come from their resurrection would be in the form of great live shows and not necessarily great new music. Still, there are a definately a couple of bands that I think still could make great new music if they could only get past their personal issues. The Smashing Pumpkins who in my opinion were making music ahead of their time towards the end of their career, and The Verve who had finally found their groove on Urban Hymns before splitting soon after would be two of the best bands to reunite.

Freidrich Charles | 8/7/2006, 6:29 pm EST

Led Zeppelin?? C’mon Bonzo is dead, Page hasn’t been Page for years (need I remind you all of the Zeppelin reunions of Live Aid, Atlantic Records Anniversary, and The R n R HOF induction. ) Keep the legend alive.

JD | 8/7/2006, 6:45 pm EST

An Eagles line up featuring all former and present members

Loggins and Messina

Abba

The original Tears for Fears line-up

JPS | 8/7/2006, 6:50 pm EST

How about R.E.M. (with Bill Berry)?!?! Talk about a band that badly needs its former member…

Coyote | 8/7/2006, 6:50 pm EST

Van Halen.

Screw every other band mentioned.
(If you’re wondering why… you’ve got a MAJOR gap in your rock history.)

jared | 8/7/2006, 6:52 pm EST

SOUNDGARDEN
TEMPLE OF THE DOG!!!!!!!!!!!
RAGE

nuff said.

Carl | 8/7/2006, 6:55 pm EST

Much as I’d love to see the Band reunite, now way is it the Band without Rick Danko and Richard Manuel. I’m sure Levon Helm would be the first one to say it, too.

BCrack | 8/7/2006, 6:57 pm EST

Phil C, you’ll be interested to know that Crowded House have reformed and are getting a new album together.

My choices are:
Afghan Whigs
Temple of the Dog
Straitjacket Fits

Phil C | 8/7/2006, 7:03 pm EST

Radiohead (reunited with their guitars)

matt | 8/7/2006, 7:07 pm EST

If only Joe Strummer was still alive. The Clash are still the only band that matters

cliff parks jr | 8/7/2006, 7:09 pm EST

To hell with anybody who said anything other than PINK FLOYD. I mean really, come on now.

Robforpres | 8/7/2006, 7:15 pm EST

We need to get together only one band, The Police!

All the members are still alive and playing.

Andrew | 8/7/2006, 7:19 pm EST

The Libertines!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!

Brian | 8/7/2006, 7:24 pm EST

RAGE! audioslave is a complete waste of tom morellos intellect and talent

ishmael | 8/7/2006, 7:27 pm EST

I agree in theory with people who said The Police (but I personally think Sting’s too far gone into New Age lite jazz to ever be cool again. As for Van Halen, I saw David Lee Roth on his “Sans Halen” tour with Sammy Hagar, and he was horrible. Go see him live before you go asking for a reunion. He’s lost it. Ditto for Led Zeppelin. Page hasn’t been great in years, Bonzo’s dead, and Robert Plant has lost the upper register of his voice. It would be embarrassing.

Also, some other bands that should quit pissing on the graves of their frontmen / legacy and call it a day: The Doors of the 21st Century and Queen with Paul Rogers – sick jokes.

Some that no one has mentioned yet:

1) The Cure (with the classic “Disintegration” lineup)
2) The English Beat (I saw Dave Wakeling with a new lineup and it just wasn’t the same)
3) Split Enz
4) Mott the Hoople (with whatever lineup you could get together)
5) Goodie Mob (I hear it’s supposedly happening, but I’ll believe it when I see it.)

Matthew M.F. Miller | 8/7/2006, 7:30 pm EST

R.E.M. – I know they’re still together, but they should bring back the brilliance of Bill Berry!!

ishmael | 8/7/2006, 7:45 pm EST

Considering the possibility of a Van Halen reunion made me remember the great performance they gave at the US Festival in ‘83, and it got me thinking: Why doesn’t Rolling Stone post a thread with great concert performances that have never been released on DVD?

zem | 8/7/2006, 7:49 pm EST

I’d like to see Pink Floyd tour again, but I think they have one of the classics left in them.
With that said, if Soundgarden got back together and put out a loud, heavy, dark display of complete musical mastery, I think I would soil myself in joy.

djmusicK | 8/7/2006, 7:57 pm EST

Rage and Soundgarden.

The best thing about Audioslave is it makes you miss these bands even more and makes you realize how brilliant, powerful, and edgy they were.

Tokyo Matt | 8/7/2006, 7:59 pm EST

I saw that Mike Patton is working on 5 (FIVE!) projects at the moment, so why oh why can’t a Faith No More reunion be one of them?

Also agree with people who said Floyd and GNR.

To Lawrence who said Zodiac Mindwarp and the Love Reaction -you are a wise man.

And for Canadiana, I’d love to see The Inbreds back together.

And to relive my high school days, I’d also like to see Pop Will Eat Itself and Ned’s Atomic Dustbin.

Mike | 8/7/2006, 8:00 pm EST

Whiskeytown and Uncle Tupelo…both great suggestions. But The Afghan Whigs, hands down. The Twilight Singers are great, but there’s nothing better during a TS show than when Mr. Dulli plays a few Whigs tunes…

Workerbee | 8/7/2006, 8:05 pm EST

The Police, The Verve, and Stone Temple Pilots…only if the knucklehead (Wieland) can keep off the dope

Oh well… I don’t really dig the idea of bands reuniting. I think it kills the legend. Cream was so much cooler when we didn’t know what they all looked like, and it’s not like Floyd is gonna put out Dark Side of the Moon 2.

Andrew | 8/7/2006, 9:03 pm EST

1. Kriss Kross
2. Wham
3. Limp Biscuit
4. Bel Biv Devoe
5. Captain and Tenille

any discussion of reuniting legends begins and ends with these five

i’m not entirely convinced that any band reunion wouldn’t be disappointing, since it’s unlikely that the original spark would still be there. if this wasn’t an issue, though, my choices would be

rage against the machine
jawbox
husker du
r.e.m. (as someone said, earlier, a reunion with bill berry would be great)
the afghan whigs
the smiths
smashing pumpkins

B.K. | 8/7/2006, 9:34 pm EST

I have to agree with the people saying leave Zep alone, we don’t need any bad memories of them.

JLI | 8/7/2006, 10:00 pm EST

A couple of years ago I would have said Cream. I got my wish. Others I would like to see are:

1. Pink Floyd (Just one more tour guys)
2. The Replacements
3. The Police (Somebody pull Sting out of the adult contemporary world he has been living in for years)
4. Soundgarden
5. The Kinks (If the Robinson brothers can do it so can Ray and Dave)
6. The Verve
7. The Clash (If Joe Strummer was still with us)
8. Jefferson Airplane
I DO NOT WANT TO SEE ZEPPELIN WITHOUT BONHAM!!!!! It would be like seeing The Who without Moon.

Cat | 8/7/2006, 10:16 pm EST

Roxy Music are working on a cd right now. Even though i like the Kinks they have not done a decent album in decades.

gadzooked1 | 8/7/2006, 10:17 pm EST

I am so glad to see the demand for Soundgarden. They are one of the best bands ever.

And who isn’t salivating to hear Rage’s take on the Bush Administration.

Faith No More will NEVER happen. It’s unfortunate, but the reasons are very deep rooted. Forget about ever seeing Faith No More or Mr. Bungle ever again. It’s to bad, but they were sacrificed for the good of all music.

Pantera is the reunion I would like to see. While Dime can never be replaced, Zakk Wylde would be a fine choice to handle the duties. Phil and Vinnie have a lot to work out though.

Phish is another band that needs to be brought up. The vibe they create is unmatched.

And folks, Audioslave is over. Mark my words, you will never see another album after this forthcoming one, save for a live or best of cd.

# 1 Reunion: Rage Against the Machine. Who wouldn’t want to hear RATM right now? If they could wrote such stirring rants about the city of Los Angeles, who could imagine what they could do with the Bush Administration?

As for Audioslave, I’m not through with them yet, but I have to say they have fallen short of the “Zeppelin for the 21st century” hype that originally garnered their inception.

Other desirable returns:

Kinda hard for Sublime to reunite, since the voice and guitar and main songwriter overdosed 10 years ago….it like wishing the Doors would reunite (even though they just sort of did), or The Wailers.

Like, all at once. Think huge backyard party in SoCal. Rollins could smooth things over with Dave, Ginn could loan Ed his echoplex, and Jello provides comedic relief! Next thing you know? “LOOK AT ALL THE BLEEDING PEOPLE HERE TONIGHT!!!”

A re-united VH blasts’ into “Atomic Punk”, and straggling members of JFA light a house on fire!!!

DanWelch | 8/7/2006, 11:56 pm EST

The Smiths – Morrissey and Marr still have it.

Leslie | 8/8/2006, 12:17 am EST

I agree with all those that Rolling Stone listed, plus I’d add the Jam, the Verve, Blur (I mean, get Graham to reunite with them), and the Libertines.

yup | 8/8/2006, 12:29 am EST

How about Weezer back with Matt Sharp? Anyone else that would turn out good?

yup | 8/8/2006, 12:30 am EST

Also the orginal Jane’s Addiction line-up (Perry Farrel, Dave Navarro, ERIC AVERY, and Steve Perkins) would be awsome.

Sorry to burst your bubble Gadzooked1, but you couldnt be further from the truth.

Oh and I’d like to see the original GNR reunite! I also like the idea of Pantera getting together with Zakk Wylde on guitar – I was thinking the same thing.

I would give my left foot to see Rage Against the Machine get back together. Their music was significant, and I feel their voice is truly needed today. Also, they were a band that quit in their prime. They are more than capable of reuniting.

Lato666 | 8/8/2006, 1:27 am EST

Rage against the Machine might just melt my face off right now…I would kick a baby thru uprights for the CHANCE to see them live…ATDI would also be pretty sick…but anger is a gift…one that only rage can bring…

Johnny Park! | 8/8/2006, 1:36 am EST

ELO! ELO! ELO! ELO!

Shybut | 8/8/2006, 1:42 am EST

I agree with many of the posters here–we could use Rage Against The Machine now more than ever. It was always my dream to see them live but never got the chance.

just a few thoughts

ottomark | 8/8/2006, 5:13 am EST

Everyone here has a lot of good intentions, but most of the suggestions aren’t big-hype worthy. Bands like Husker Du, Uncle Tupelo, Fugazi, The Libertines, etc. wouldn’t get pub a year early. They just aren’t big enough. Most people don’t even know who Sound Garden, the Stone Roses, or the Meat Puppets are. Even Rage Against the Machine doesn’t haveh the panache for that. This has to be big — in the sense that the band had many albums and is considered “important”. And I doubt that it’s Led Zeppelin, since they get back together every few weeks. That leaves only the three bands below:
– Talking Heads
– Police
– Genesis

And because the event is on the other side of the pond, I would suggest it’s not Talking Heads, even though they could still do it (and well).

Sting is so vain that I think he’d consider a reunion a step back. But the boys did get together for a reunion of sorts for Copeland’s DVD, so perhaps that lit a fire.

Genesis, on the other hand, need a reunion. Phil’s gotta be a little tired of getting admirers solely from the Disney crowd. And while Peter was successful for a long period, it’s been a while. But not as long as it’s been for Mike and the Mechanics . . .

My money’s on GENESIS.

Man, to hear all those hits again live, with maybe even a new studio disc. They should do it for the fans!

Pasty Journalist | 8/8/2006, 9:56 am EST

It’s always dicey for a reunion, especially if a band has released a decent array of albums. It seems that each time a band reunites, it cheapens the legacy of the band (read The Who, Jane’s Addiction).

That said…
The Verve
Mercy Rule
Prince with the Revolution
Luscious Jackson
The Smashing Pumpkins

Was going to say Soundgarden, but I’m not too sure they could release anything that would equal ‘Louder Than Love’ or ‘Superunknown.’

Pasty Journalist | 8/8/2006, 9:58 am EST

Afghan Whigs

The Fleetwood Mac lineup with 3 guitarists — Peter Green, Jeremy Spencer, and Danny Kirwan.
The Yardbirds with Beck and Page together. Unfortunately it’s not the Yardbirds without Keith Relf’s desperate vocals and harp playing.
A live bill of Weather Report, Mahavishnu, Return to Forever, and Larry Coryell’s Eleventh House would be really cool.

The Turtles.
Paul Revere and the Raiders!

How about a bubblegum reunion tour — Ohio Express, Archies, 1910 Fruitgum Company, the Cufflinks, Tommy Boyce and Bobby Hart, Cyrkle, Lemon Pipers, who’m I missing? NOT THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY!!!!!!!

With a lot of these bands, the key players are so spent that hoping for a reunion is as much wishful thinking as it is with the bands where the key players are dead. Taking that into account, I’d have to second the people who mentioned Squeeze and The English Beat. I’ve seen the frontman for each of those bands perform in the past couple years, and they’ve still got it!

Slop | 8/8/2006, 11:14 am EST

“No Van Halen? Are you guys all 13 years old?”

Van Halen truly suck.

What’re you, 35?

Dare To Hear A Fool | 8/8/2006, 11:15 am EST

with all the crap thats been going on I’m surprised that Zach has not popped his head up somewhere. RAGE NEEDS TO REUNITE! and audio slave just sucks anyway. rage is a great band and so is soundgarden but you cant put the two together and expect it to work in my oppinion.

CH | 8/8/2006, 11:17 am EST

I’m not a huge Audioslave fan, but… obviously it has worked…

Can you say, “Multi-Platinum?”

Pat55 | 8/8/2006, 11:20 am EST

Hambone Williams | 8/8/2006, 11:21 am EST

Why Phish? What have they done for music again?

Dr. J. | 8/8/2006, 11:29 am EST

personally, i’d settle for somebody talking Sleater-Kinney out of splitting up.

Troy | 8/8/2006, 11:32 am EST

Husker Du at the top of the list.
Uncle Tupelo
Blue Mountain
Black Flag

amy | 8/8/2006, 11:33 am EST

definitely the smashing pumpkins
i’d like to see alice in chains touring more places and more dates

Zach | 8/8/2006, 11:36 am EST

Bands that it would be awesome to see reunited (at least on tour, which makes this list really unlikely):

XTC
Talking Heads
The Police

As far as new music from these bands (or any of the others we’re all listing here), I think after listening to their catalogs again we’ll all be perfectly happy that they all quit while they were ahead.

JD | 8/8/2006, 11:39 am EST

Soundgarden
Soul Coughing
Luscious Jackson
The Police
Talking Heads

slimbo | 8/8/2006, 11:49 am EST

some great lists!

I’d pay big bucks to see:
The Jam
The Smiths
Jesus and Mary Chain

too bad we’ll never see these reunions:
The Band
The Clash
The Ramones
the original Bob Marley and the Wailers lineup (Marley, Tosh and Barret all gone too soon!)

For all you 80’s clubsters, how about Yaz?

What about R.E.M.? Oh yeah, they’re still together they just suck now!

Dylan | 8/8/2006, 12:00 pm EST

To me, the only band that would not be an old fart reunion fest and would kick ass is the original Guns and Roses. Honorable mention to Soundgarden and Rage.

Jeff | 8/8/2006, 12:05 pm EST

Here goes the heavyweights suckas

Talking Heads
Blind Faith
Smashing Pumpkins
Phish
Pink Floyd

Boyyyeeeee

Francisco Valdes | 8/8/2006, 12:08 pm EST

My List, reunions which are still possible, no dead guys included.

1. Pink Floyd (With Roger Waters)
2. Dead Kennedys (with Jello Biafra)
3. Rage Against The Machine
4. The Police
5. N.W.A
6. Jane’s Addiction (Again)
7. Talking Heads
8. Eric B. And Rakim
9. Faith No More
10. The Velvet Underground

nathan | 8/8/2006, 12:20 pm EST

Talking Heads + Velvet Underground co-headlining a new tour = coolest show of the year.

slimbo | 8/8/2006, 12:25 pm EST

Although I agree with Francisco Valdes that seeing The Velvets again would be awesome, it will never really happen. Sterling Morrison, the original guitarist, passed away in ‘95. And how would they do “Femme Fatale” and “All Tomorrow’s Parties” without Nico who died in ‘88.

Tari Kapping A Chinske | 8/8/2006, 12:26 pm EST

I would definitley have to vote for the Darding’s. “Kapping a Chinske in the Darding with a Letecia Watkins”.

B-Wizzy | 8/8/2006, 12:28 pm EST

I would love to see Jane’s Addiction play again but not if it means breaking up The Panic Channel. They’re freakin’ amazing. I vote for the Smashing Pumpkins and Soundgarden.

Dare To Hear A Fool | 8/8/2006, 12:36 pm EST

what’s with people saying the smashing pumpkins? (i’m not knocking on the pumpkins by saying this, i am a HUGE pumpkins fan). do you not know that they are currently reunited. granted it may not be the whole band once everything is said and done but billy and jimmy are already in. i guess you can say that it’s as much a zwan reunion as it is a pumpkins one…

Alex at Criterion Co. | 8/8/2006, 12:50 pm EST

While I’d love to see Smashing Pumpkins get together for a show and Pink Floyd build another Wall… The best concert I have seen (featuring bands no longer) is RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE and AT THE DRIVE-IN. how about a show where Mars volta and Sparta open up? A little contemporary but still… that’d be incredible.

Pete | 8/8/2006, 12:52 pm EST

joburocks.com | 8/8/2006, 1:17 pm EST

It’s cool to see so many FNM shout-outs. They’re one of the most underrated bands.

My picks:
Faith No More (with Jim Martin)
Rage Against the Machine
Jellyfish

I’m on the fence about Phish. I loved them, but Umphrey’s McGee has taken their place.

Jared | 8/8/2006, 1:19 pm EST

Gotta add Uncle Tupelo.

K | 8/8/2006, 1:20 pm EST

I’d say original line-up of Guns N Roses, whose members are all alive so I wish Axl Rose would pull his over-done red head out of his skinny white ass (p.s. guns n roses does not show up on this list as much as it should)

and what the hell…if we’re adding people who are gone
Pink Floyd (love Syd Barrett)
Rolling Stones (with Brian Jones)
Bob Marley and the Wailers
Jimi Hendrix Experience (one M btw)
and well…the list goes on doesn’t it…too bad most of the good bands are gone

www.palominosmusic.com | 8/8/2006, 1:21 pm EST

The Police, Crazy Horse (where have they been?), The Faces, Soundgarden, Sleater Kinney(even though they haven’t parted ways just yet, Whiskey Town, White Stripes

Erik | 8/8/2006, 1:24 pm EST

I agree with all of those on the list at the top. Although, to me, Rage got a little “tired” to me on their last efforts.

I’ve always dreamt of the Stone Roses reforming and touring with a reformed Ride opening up.

IHaventreadanyoneelsespost | 8/8/2006, 1:32 pm EST

Guns N Roses, how was GNR left off the list?
I mean I know there Velvet Temple Pilots & Rented Roses out there right now but we need to see the original GNR back together dysfunction and all. Thats the only one that really matters.

tomimay | 8/8/2006, 1:35 pm EST

id like to see dave navarro join the chilis on stage for a going over of aeroplane, with frusciante just wailing over the top! thatd be cool

Brian | 8/8/2006, 1:40 pm EST

* Megadeth (with Mustaine, Ellefson, Friedman and Menza)
* The Police
* Warrant (just kidding …)
* Test Icicles (really early, but maybe they can be talked into staying together)
* Men at Work
* Jane’s Addiction, if only to put an end to the horrific Panic Channel, yet another band with no soul that sounds like everyone else.
* Queens of the Stone Age with Nick Oliveri
* Screaming Trees
* Vinnie Vincent Invasion (just to see if anyone showed up)

McGuire | 8/8/2006, 1:44 pm EST

cant go wrong with the Stone Roses, Brown and Squire are the kings of Brith rock…. i love Janes Addiction but its done, leave it.

Mark C | 8/8/2006, 1:46 pm EST

Here’s a list of groups that should reform and the reasons they won’t:

Rockpile
Not enough booze in the world to support their tour

Talking Heads
David Byrne is a prick

Uncle Tupelo
Jay Farrer is a J-O

The Kinks
Dave can’t defend himself when he gets into the usual fistfight with Ray

The Jam
Paul Weller is a drunk

The Police
(See Talking Heads and replace Sting with David Byrne)

McGuire | 8/8/2006, 1:48 pm EST

the kinks would be nice as well… i’d love to see the smiths but cant imagine it happening.

McGuire | 8/8/2006, 1:50 pm EST

Mr. White | 8/8/2006, 2:11 pm EST

The last few times I have seen Jimmy Page and Robert Plant on video, it has been embarrassing. Plant can’t hit the high notes and Page’s technique, which was never great, has completely deteriorated. Worse, they seem to have written off Jones, who gets far too little credit for Zep’s sound.

Pink Floyd has gotten back together recently, and they didn’t enjoy it, so neither would we. Gilmour and Waters are two grumpy, albeit talented, old men.

The Talking Heads played together at their induction into rock hall of fame. It was kind of dismal.

GENESIS would be my ultimate reunion concert. I’d love to see Level 42 one more time, and on a really sarcastic note, could Michael Jackson reunite with his early ’80s, pre-totally weird days and make good music again? Yeh, I doubt it too. Peter and Phil: Make it happen, fellas!

Sean | 8/8/2006, 2:49 pm EST

Creedence Clearwater Revival would be cool to see reunite(but it just wouldnt be the same without Tom Fogerty)

The Velvet Underground would be extremely cool but I dont think it would happen after the death of Sterling Morrison, plus I don’t know if John Cale and Doug Yule would get along.

I doubt the Band would reunite, Levon Helm and Robbie Robertson I think are still at each others throats, also, Levon can’t sing ever since his throat cancer, plus their two other singers, Rick Danko and Richard Manuel are dead.

I would like to see Supertramp, Black Sabbath(with either Ozzy[his solo stuff is crap] or Dio),The Stones with Bill Wyman, The Talking Heads, the Police, Genesis and Pink Floyd.

As for Zeppelin, that would be the greatest reunion in history, but everyone know it will never happen. If it were to though, have Jason Bonham on drums.

DJ Ken | 8/8/2006, 2:51 pm EST

Wait a sec! How could I forget! Now that they’re all totally honest about their (sex) lives and all, the boys from N’Sync have got to get together again! And what about Spinal Tap? Hello, Cleveland!

The fact that NO ONE on this list mentioned The FACES proves to me that everyone who has posted in this thread is a retard.

The Faces – most underrated/underapreciated rock band ever.

It wouldn’t hurt if the Georgia Satellites reformed either ;)

The Yardbirds – perhaps a Yardbirds’ all-stars (not the reformed quintet currently out there) – Page, Clapton, and Beck in a guitar-god three-way and McCarty on drums. The Tea Party. The Guess Who (the real Guess Who, not the ones currently turing under the name).

The Choobs | 8/8/2006, 3:41 pm EST

-Sleater Kinney (it’s been too long already!)

Creedence could reunite with a sub rhythm guitarist, but it ain’t gonna happen. And why should it? The rhythm section’s gripes about Fogerty being a dictator make about as much sense as Babe Ruth’s teammates being mad because he hit all those home runs.

Also, REM with Bill Berry so they make a good record.

To be honest, this whole idea is flawed since every band mentioned thus far broke up either after having run their course or after having a member die. Do we really want to see our musical heroes whore themselves out, playing their hits for that last paycheck for an idea that was exausted years ago?

8.VAN HALEN (very very hard)
9.Guns and Roses (very hard but the difference its that they re younger than van halen)

10.I dont know why put Blink-182 or Box Car Racer, i think its a funny joke!

Anyone who doesn’t include STONE ROSES, doesn’t understand what modern bands are all about. Watch the video to She Bangs A Drum – that’s a live performance. But only now can Ian Brown make a vocal performance to match the quality of the rest of the band.

I don’t think Nissan would be half as popular if it weren’t for “Soda Jerk” being used in their commercials. Sleepy Eyed has got to be one of the most underrated albums of the 90s, or even all time.

Without question, Uncle Tupelo. It is so interesting to hear how divergent Tweedy and Farrar sounds have become. Not sure it would work, but I would love to hear them try.
Also, Chore of Enchantment-era Giant Sand. Indeed Howe Gelb has created some great music since the demise of GS (namely Sno’ Angel Like You) and of course, Calexico have emerged as a wonderfully talented band, but there is something about that record…

Carl | 8/9/2006, 11:43 am EST

If you could give Plant his full vocal range back I’d love to see Zep with a good replacement drummer. Obviously you can’t. I saw them at Madison Square Garden in ‘71. They opened with Immigrant Song, which I’d never heard before. As good as Page’s playing was, nothing was comparable to that screech at the beginning of the song echoing around a 20,000 seat arena. I doubt that JPJ would at this point stand there plunking a bass in the background no matter how much money they threw at him.

The band I would like to see reunite would be Fleetwood Mac with Christine Mcvie back in the lineup!!!!!!!!!!!

m. | 8/13/2006, 3:51 am EST

I don’t think The Kinks could get back together since Dave had a stroke some time ago, plus you have to decide which lineup you would want the most: pre-71, or mid seventies? Also, Zep will never, ever get back together, no matter who is playing drums; a wasted sentiment if ever there was one. Taking Heads however seems to be a relatively plausible reunion, as I believe all the original members are alive and well.

Dave | 8/13/2006, 1:31 pm EST

- good to see a few people listed N.W.A, though not enough. but if dre can’t stop tinkering with Detox long enough to release it, there’s no way he’ll do a new NWA record. Besides, how the hell do you follow up Efil4zaggin, the greatest hip-hop album ever? (yeah, i said it)

- the libertines – i’ve never actually heard these guys (although i own dirty pretty things’ debut – what an album!) but they should do schedule a tour, but after the first song of the first show, pete doherty should drop dead on stage due to alcoholism. after 50 years of rock’n'roll, has anybody actually died during their set? if not, it’s a good detractor to those who claim that “everythings been done.”

- eric b. and rakim. whoever mentioned this above is a freakin’ genius and should be hired to arrange and manage this tour. besides, the rakim-dre partership dissolved, when, two years ago? What’s “the God” done since? And Eric B.? Where’s he been since “Don’t Sweat the Technique”?

- Ozzy should be bared from releasing any more solo albums, and a legal document needs to be drawn up stating that any and all media outlets can only mention Ozzy in relation to Black Sabbath.
And if Black Sabbath wanted to play at least one show in Vancouver, B.C., i’d be alright with that.

Re: Dave Davies’ stroke — I heard a rumour/rumor (ha) that he’s well enough to play again… no real proof yet.

Cream did the reunion recently, but they should keep on going with those reunited gigs…

Pink Floyd was great at Live 8 and Gilmour def. needs Waters.

RICKSDS | 9/11/2006, 12:49 pm EST

The Police (so Sting can grow back his testicles)
The Smiths (We can dream)
Pink Floyd (although Syd can no loner make it..)
Guns N Roses (real lineup)
REM W/Bill Berry (when they were good)
The Bangles (why the hell not)
Van Halen (although this would almost certainly be an embarrassment)

Please, no Rage Againt the Machine (they did enough champagne socialist whining during their tenure)
or The Stone Roses (they had their chance at a comeback and totally blew it)

yawn | 9/13/2006, 10:14 am EST

pink floyd already reunited at live8, isnt that enough for u music geeks

Chris | 9/15/2006, 3:03 pm EST

The Smiths(Moz, I know you and Marr need the money, ick and Modest Mouse will suck regardless of Marr)
Sleater-Kinney (one of the greatest live bands of all time)
MBV
The Mats(with lots of beer please,RIP Bob)
I’d say Velvet Underground, but Sterling can’t be replaced, Cale could kill Yule also
Stone Roses
Forget Zep and Floyd, No Bonham or Barret makes no sense
Fleetwood Mac with all 4 guitarists would be awesome,who cares about Christine Mc Vie
Rage Against The Machine, man isn’t Audioslave horrible
Ozzy should be on life support so forget Black Sabbath
classic Motorhead lineup with Eddie Clarke
Blur
Pulp
Suede
som eone please put Oasis out of their misery
I agree with Radiohead and guitars, just play three good albums (Bends, Ok Computer, Kid A)Thom should not be allowed to go solo
The Cars, although I’m not sure who would replace Ben Orr
The Stooges with James Williamson, let him play Raw Power stuff on guitar, than switch with Ron for first two Stooges album
New Order with Gillian Gilbert and stop fucking around and get back to being musicians
Dylan and The Band, with Joan Baez and Scarlet Riveria
White Stripes, man the Racounteurs suck ass
Loretta Lynn and Jack White
Operation Ivy
Pavement with Gary Young
Brian Jonestown Massacre with Joel Gion
Abba would be fucking awesome, though I’m sure the ladies look like hags now
The Verve, man Richard Ashcroft sux on his own
Spacemen3/Spiritualized
The Only Ones, I’d love to know what happened to Peter Perret, did he od?
David Bowie/Iggy Pop
The Pretty Things,(original) not the crappy Libertines side show
The Stones and good material, anything before 74
man how could I forget The Kinks
guess that’s enough for now

Chris | 9/15/2006, 3:04 pm EST

shit I forgot about Big Star, let Paul Westerberg replace Chris Bell

Notes:

* The Libertines were a band of could’ve beens. Too bad.

* I can’t believe Audioslave is on their 3rd album. I heard their new single and video to this song the other day and was strongly reminded of RATM’s “Renegades”. Yes, to Rage needing to get back together and Audioslave sounding tired.

* Though Graham Coxon has made some great solo records (and will probably make some more in the future), I agree Blur is not Blur without him.

* And as for putting Oasis out of their misery…huh?…I doubt anyone is calling for the orginal lineup. It is the Gallaghers’ band. If one of them left, them there would be no Oasis.
