    Saw Dire Straits supporting Talking Heads in ’77. They were good then. Saw both FNM and Soundgarden, would happily go see both bands again. Really wanted to see the Pixies as I never got to see them first time around, but tickets went too quickly. Would dearly love to see Dark Star and Tiger reform and tour, I was delighted to find a copy of Dark Star’s unreleased second album Zurich online which I’ve downloaded. Great album, just bloody record company indifference caused them to call it a day, and the company refused to let them have the album to release themselves. Little wonder the music business is in such a state.

    A lot of decent bands go three years between albums anyway, so I wouldn’t worry if I were you.

    It’s when they get back together after 20 years and are clearly only in it for the money that you need to worry.

    Velvet Underground at Wembley Arena springs to mind. I had to go, obviously, but it was sooo wrong.

    But then other times it can be wonderful, like MBV and Human League a couple of years ago.

    Rival Schools getting back together 🙂 Maybe they were never apart but there was a long time between albums.

    Primal Scream still trawling round 🙁 I’ve rearely been called a c**t by a band before but they really are a proper bunch of pr!cks – I left soon after that, rubbish, stop touring as you are clearly only in it for the money!

    I’d love to, but it would mean digging two of them up…

    I saw them in Glasgow last year (I think) and they were great.

    OMS have a special place in my heart as the first band I ever got really properly trampled half to death in a circlepit to. But I think I might not try and relive that if I get to see the reformed version.

    Now Pitchshifter, there’s a band that should properly reform… They should have been like the Prodigy, getting a kickstart off Pendulum and Enter Shikari and these other johnny-come-latelys.

    Saw them supporting a group years ago. I must of caught them on an off day, they were awful.

    I want to see Pixies too.

    They are touring America so hopefully Europe will follow.

    Actually, now you guys have suggested it, I’d go see Dire Straits.

    Mainly for the Local Hero theme though (I hope).

    Mark Knopfler played that in Glasgow last year. I’m not sure if it was a usual part of the setlist or a special seeing as he was in Scotland. It was pretty good, I don’t think it’s one of the songs/tunes that really needs Dire Straits to be playing it.

    They did go quite badly wrong… For all I want them to reform now I also wish they’d split up a bit earlier :mrgreen:

    One reason why I’d love to see At The Drive-In reform
