dead kennedy's with jello
have you heard the song Jello recorded with the Melvins recently, Those Dumb Punk Kids (Will Buy Anything)? I don't feel a reunion is on the cards in the immediate future.

not a big fan of the reunion tour where the band plays their perceived "hits" but in an imaginary world where all these bands could make a new album as good as their best...
Pavement
Arab Strap
Sebadoh (These guys have recently reunited- but not for an album)
New pixies album
Black Francis and Eric Drew Feldman
My Bloody Valentine
I second Stone Roses |

Sounds like you need to get the other shirt!
I enjoyed them live, but it was in like 1994 or 1995, so maybe toward the end of their run. Good show.

I'd pay to see Faith No More on a reunion also.

Finally! Another Archers fan on the forum. I would very much love an Archers reunion, especially considering that Eric Johnson didn't make many shows during the White Trash Heroes tour. |

- Shay QuillenTen bands we'd love to see reunite
Van Halen: It looked as if this would be the year when David Lee Roth and Eddie Van Halen finally toured again, but they couldn't even get it together to make nice at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction. What do you say - a sober Eddie, Alex, Wolfie and Diamond Dave in '08?
Talking Heads: All four members are alive and well, and the band's influence lives on in such bands as Modest Mouse and Arcade Fire. Heck, Radiohead was named after a Talking Heads song! A plea to David Byrne: Forgive the other three for that wretched "No Talking Just Head" album and dust off the Big Suit.
The Smiths: Morrissey continues to be a big concert draw, but a reunion with guitarist Johnny Marr (now playing with Modest Mouse) would be a dream come true for Anglophiles of a certain age.
Guns 'N' Roses: You know that Axl, Slash and the rest will cash in one of these years. Let's make it soon while we still care.
Creedence Clearwater Revival: Sure, John Fogerty refused to even jam with his old mates at the band's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction, but this would be so easy. They wouldn't even need to rehearse: Stu Cook and Doug Clifford still crank out the old tunes regularly in Creedence Clearwater Revisited.
Hu(uml)sker Du(uml): Bob Mould, Grant Hart and Greg Norton all are still making music, and they definitely deserve some of that money the Pixies have been raking in on the reunion circuit.
Prince and the Revolution: Who wouldn't want to see Prince with Wendy and Lisa again? (And Doctor Fink!)
The Replacements: With Bob Stinson dead and Chris Mars mostly retired from the drums, this reunion probably would be a disappointment. But then, so were most of their shows in the '80s!
The Housemartins: The Beautiful South is kaput, so Paul Heaton and Dave Hemingway have some free time these days. And who wouldn't love to see Norman Cook (a.k.a. Fatboy Slim) pick up the bass again? Plus, their gentle Christian Marxism would provide a nice alternative to Rage's more macho approach. Power to the people. Respect for the steeple.
The Velvet Underground: Sterling Morrison, one of the two people in the world who both John Cale and Lou Reed would speak to, is dead now, but the other person, Maureen Tucker, is still out there somewhere. Things got ugly fast when the four of them tried to reunite back in the '90s but what the hey. Nobody ever sounded like this band, even on a bad night, before or since.

What's the expiration date on that classic rock?
I turned 36 earlier this year, but I realized just how old I was getting this past weekend, when I caught Dinosaur Jr at the Phoenix. J Mascis’s hair had gone completely grey.
And that’s when it came to me. For many of the 30-somethings—like myself and the thousands of others who have caught this tour—Dinosaur Jr is our classic rock. So is Sonic Youth. The Cure. The Pixies. Hey, to us, the Clash and the Sex Pistols are our vital oldies.
You hear it in commercials; hell, I’ve heard the Pogues flogging Cadillac to yuppies, the Smiths downer classic “How Soon Is Now?” used to flog Nissans and the Jesus and Mary Chain providing a backdrop for beer ads.
So why hasn’t classic rock radio caught up? Why do program directors still assume that “classic” rock has to come from the ‘60s or ‘70s? Looking at the BBM rating for classic-rock radio in Edmonton—and even in Toronto, for that matter—stagnation is the word. That’s because, as my generation gets older, classic rock radio offers nothing to us. Yes, we all like the Beatles and Stones, but we were just as inspired by the Buzzcocks and the Stone Roses.
According to the BBM book for the first quarter of 2007, K-Rock held just a 4.7 per cent share of the Edmonton market, down from 7.3 per cent in the final quarter of 2006. Its core audience (that is, listeners within the metro Edmonton area), was at 95 000 unique people who tuned into the station for more than 15 minutes a week. The Bear, which plays some classic rock, saw its share go up, but its actual number of listeners held at just over 150 000. In Toronto, Q107, the nation’s most famous classic-rock station, saw its share fall from 6.8 to 6.4 per cent of the market.
These stations’ audiences get older and they haven’t changed their formats to endear the next generation of 30-somethings. And don’t even get me started on the argument that a lot of the rock bands of this generation weren’t popular enough to ever be considered classic rock. The Jesus and Mary Chain once headlined a show at SkyDome (now Toronto’s Rogers Centre); New Order played to sold out arenas; the Smiths are now rock icons. And, it should be noted, a lot of the bands you hear on classic rock stations didn’t chart well either; their music simply endured the years and kept its audience.
Kinda like Dinosaur Jr. And Sonic Youth. And the Pixies.
And, if a classic-rock radio programmer doesn’t know who these bands are, or hasn’t considered adding them to the playlist, maybe it’s time for a new boss. V

I know the Sugarcubes did re-unite, but it was only for one show. I was thinking more of a tour than a one-off.
