<br>Oh yeah, Run-DMC.
Sorry. I love 80s hip hop/rap as much as I do NW.

A Run-DMC without Grandmaster Jay? It wouldn't be a true reunion. Run-DMC is as dead as the Ramones.

Jam Master Jay would also need to be brought back from the dead with Joe Strummer. I shoulda been more specific. Sorry.

The Expression. Partly because they never fulfilled their potential (through no fault of their own) but mainly because I would love to see them play again.

They were an Exhilerating live band!!! Mesmerising, actually!

And of course, pretty good song writers too!! Beautiful music.[8D]

I'd Like to see some bands that are still "together" go back and make new music based on their "golden eras"

•Simple Minds (Real To Reel, Sons/Fascination, Empires & Dance)
•Duran Duran (S/T)
•Tears For Fears (The Way You Are 12")
•Rational Youth (Cold War Night Life era)

These bands trying to keep up with "modern times" have left me cold.

Ultravox. And I don't care if John Foxx or Midge Ure is the lead singer. As long is it is one of them, and the rest of band consists of Warren Cann, Billy Currie, and Chris Cross.

^ Nod re Thompson Twins and also Style Council.

Durans Durans new stuff (I think) is actually very good. Massive in the US.. very under-rated in Oz.

I think the Thompson Twins got a divorce. Did you know they got married? Too bad, they had some really great cuts.

I also really liked [i]Astronaut[/i] and think it's the best thing since the wedding album that DD has put out. There is no doubt that [i]Sunrise[/i] is the best song for DD to open with in concert! If you haven't seen them in concert in the last year, get your hands on the [i]Live from London[/i] DVD.

How about this for an unlikely reunion:

<em>Adam & The Ants</em>
