Bands that SHOULD reunite? Maybe?

[frazman]

I'd really like to see Pavement play

[Mobius]

Pavement is ripe for a reunion/tour.
 
 Guns N Roses, original line up should tour
 
 Talking Heads
 
 Pink Floyd - Gilmour and Waters are in 'fighting shape' after recent tours and should tour.
 
 Tribe Called Quest - I know they were at Love recently.  Q-Tip has stagnated alone. They should get together in earnest.
 
 R.E.M. w/ Bill Berry
 
 JAMC need to tour for real and get to DC
 
 Jonathan Richman should tour w/ original Modern Lovers.

The last time I saw Pavement they were pelted with mud.
 
 I don't want anyone to "get back together."  If a band breaks up, it breaks up.  Life goes on.  
 
 Would anyone REALLY want to see the Smiths get back together?  They were fresh and exciting when the were in their early twenties.  They'd be sad and pathetic now.  That can apply to ALL of those bands on the list.
 
 What is this affliction that rock fans catch?  It's like a Scavenger Hunt.  You have a mental list of "bands you missed" and now you'll pay ANYTHING ($100+) to see them again now that they've gotten back together when you KNOW the band is ONLY doing it for the money.  It's like a surgically reconstructed hymen.
 
 A band breaking up is like two people getting a divorce.  It's an end.  You can't recreate a marriage and you can't recreate the Replacements.  Move on.  Nostalgia will kill you, if you let it.

That was a full-fledged reunion tour w/ about 20-some odd dates.  Where were you at, fam???
 
 Don't hold your breath for an album, though.

It was well documented on the slow century DVD if it's the lollapalooza incident you refer to.
 That made me sad, I thought they were a brilliant band and that those people throwing mud were knuckleheads. If it happened elsewhere, then there is more Pavement hatred out there than I thought possible

it's also that their shows are really uneven. . .they'll get 3/4's through a song then it will fall apart because someone forgets how to play it or forgets the lyrics.  i saw their show at the recher before they broke up and they started asking for requests- someone said, how about a song they can finish.

No.  It was the Lollapalooza show in Virginia.  It made me sad.  I've never wanted to physically fight with people more than with the people who were throwing the mud.  Really sad.
 
 Actually, I own "Slow Century" but it's still in the wrapper.  Never watched.  I'll have to watch that some day.  I really love Pavement videos.

It's easily the best music DVD I own - it is so thorough - all the videos, two concerts, full documentary etc -  it is as comprehensive as any reasonable fan could hope for.
 
 The final three songs from the final show at Brixton, including Here, makes the hair stand up on the back of my neck.
 
 Get it out of the wrapper!

what? why?

[miss pretentious]

Oh Christ. I would love to see The Stereo reunite. I was supposed to go see them in Florida when I was on Spring Break, but of course no one would go with me... *sigh*
 
 And for giggles I'll go for The Get Up Kids and Engine Down.
