only is it wasn't a key member... i.e no to the clash or big country.  yes to bow wow wow [/b]

But someone mentioned the Replacements and Big Star (isn't one of the big guys there gone?) and Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers (the keyboardist is dead right?).

But, I specifically noted that I'd be fine with a Replacements reunion without Bob Stinson -- Slim Dunlop will do just fine.  And I don't know about Big Star, so that may be my bad.

True regarding Big Star, at least of the orginial members can passed away.  But Alex Clinton and Jody Stephens (drums) have done success shows with two members of the Posies (ken and jon) backing them.  I'd love to see that show sometime.
 
 One of the early Modern Lovers keyboardists was Jerry Harrison and he is still very much alive.
 
 Two additions...  Pete Townsend solo circa "Empty Glass", backed by bass player and drummer who would later join Big Country.    And Billy Bragg circa 1984. [/b]

Wasn't he playing completely solo then?  Is it possible to reunite with yourself?

Bragg reunites with himself every night, the big wanker!
 
 Actually, he had Wiggy who would flip the wires about on stage and keep walking back on stage to move Braggs guitar a couple of inches before the show started...not sure why, but there you have it.

The best reunion of the year is going to be onstage at the 9:30 in about 7.5 hours...christ that's a long time...

Sexual Chocolate.  Their version of "The Greatest Love of All" is truly heart wrenching.

[mkpage]

The Stone Roses or the Happy Mondays.

New Kids on the Block.
 
 I'd pay a Pay-Per-View charge of up to $19.99 to see this on Vh1's "Bands Reuniting" - it would be classic to see Mark Wahlberg back on stage with the other 5 saying, "See, I told you that you're type casting yourselves" and then laugh and walk off.

Mark was in the band then left "to be a kid", as he put it, right before NKOTB made it huge.  Eveybody was making fun of him for leaving the band and I'm sure he was pretty upset too (I'm sure Donnie gave him lots of shit for leaving).  Ahhh, look who's laughing now.

aaaah, I see...

Oh yeah, this is my band Sexual Chocolate!  That would be a great opener for anyone.
