10 Bands Who Should Reunite
It seems that you can’t get through a day without some band or other re-forming. So Classic Rock thought it was time to look at 10 that might, or might not, happen in the next year or so.
GUNS N’ ROSES – The Appetite For Destruction line-up, that is. This would be a license to print money. Gentlemen, a several week residency at Wembley Stadium suit you? Steven Adler’s keen (wonder why?), Slash and Duff don’t seem against it, and Izzy would probably get involved for a while. And that only leaves…ah, yes, Mr. Unpredictable himself. So, who knows where this might go?
LED ZEPPELIN – Well they’ve done the occasional one-off show since John Bonham’s death in 1980. Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones were keen enough to rehearse with Jason Bonham. But Robert Plant appears to have no interest, which is why the other trio were contemplating using another singer. That fell apart, and right now there’s no chance of it coming back onto the agenda.
DEEP PURPLE MK III – This has been talked about for so long it’s become almost boring. David Coverdale has said yes on numerous occasions – only to backtrack fast when he realised that a certain guitarist didn’t seem so keen. Glenn Hughes is even more enthusiastic than Cov. But would Ian Paice give up his current day job with the millionth Purple line-up. And could they call themselves Deep Purple anyway? Mind you, just calling it MK III is good enough.
BARCLAY JAMES HARVEST – Time for John Lees and Woolly Wolstenholme to welcome back Les Holroyd. Come on, chaps, it’s a bit ludicrous for one of the most polite band around to be locked into this long-term falling out. Just daft.
MANOWAR – Real men don’t hold grudges. There is only one guitarist for the band: Ross The Ross. So, let’s see some true metal spirit on all sides. Death to false axemen.
UFO – Any chance of one last hurrah with ‘Mad’ Mickey Schenker and Pete Way? Yeah, we know Schenker can be a tad hatstand (seriously, he can!) and Way likes a drink or 17 (hard to believe, but true). But a final tour with these two on board would be, erm, intriguing. Who’d punch who first?
WISHBONE ASH – Wouldn’t it be nice to see the Argus line-up back together in a happy frame of mind? But right now, Andy Powell and Martin Turner are at each other’s throats. One says something, the other automatically disagrees. Great. But we know it’s a thin line between love and hate, and if these two start to kiss (metaphorically, natch) and make up, then Ted Turner and Steve Upton will join in the fun.
METALLICA – Now everything’s fine between ‘Tallica and Dave Mustaine, how about giving Kirk Hammett a temporary break, getting Mustaine in and doing a tour playing the set they used to do in the very early days. Getting back to the garage, as it were.
IRON MAIDEN – Every time the idea of a reunion with Paul Di’Anno is mentioned, bassist Steve Harris totally dismisses the idea. But Di’Anno is on the first two Maiden albums – and they helped define metal as we know it. Wouldn’t it be fun to see the band playing all of those songs again with the man who was at the microphone for them? Maybe at the Horse & Cart or some similar hostelry in East Lahndon.
MARINO THE BAND – Ah, wouldn’t it be delightful to see Lisa Dominique (pictured here) and her guitar playing bro Marino reunited? That’d bring back glorious memories of the 1980s for all (well, some) of us.
OK, that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Who would you like to see back together. Scribble your suggestions below.
Would love to see Bill Wyman and Mick Taylor join the Stones for a gig or two, and, of course, the original Sabs should get back together while they still can… if you know what I mean.
If I hear anyone talk about or write of a Guns N’ Roses reunion ever again, I think I’ll probably drop dead from a frustration overload. It’s not going to happen!
The reunoin I would most like to see is Blackfoot with Ricky Medlocke. Hell Yeah!!!
Gnr, Metallica and Maiden? No, just no.
brilliant! agree with em, except marino utter shite, and the current ufo is fab anyway!
Maiden are just fine the way they are. Bruce is, and always will be, the far better singer.
SKID ROW – the original line-up with Sebastian Bach, ignoring the awful Subhuman Race album and doing another great hard rock/metal record like Slave To The Grind. Come on boys!
Those are all terrible suggestions and pointless – all those bands are better off as they are now and the members who left are better off doing their own thing . apart from GNR cos they just plain suck.
Blue Murder (John Sykes, Tony Franklin & Carmine Appice) would be a worthy reunion.
Marillion with Fish. As much as I love the current line-up with the brilliant H. One tour with Fish would be nice.
The Kinks.
Cream.
And of course Pink Floyd. Gilmour, Waters & Mason.
Skyclad with Martin Walkyier back on vocals where the man belongs. Altogether now ” Await your second coming with a hunger in her eyes” sheer quality.Sort it out Martin!!!
I’m sure a lot of OK and HELLO! readers would love it if Dawn French and Lenny Henry, Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt, and Peter Andre and Jordan could get back together. It isn’t going to happen. Thank god.
Besides, what these bands created in youth was 20 years ago. They can’t hit the notes they used to, they have less energy, they play with less distortion, and write complicated melodies about social issues instead of simple stuff about boobs and drugs that crowds sing along to.
It’s better to have the myth of their reputation than the reality of what they sound like now. Someone once said ‘Deep Purple stopped being legendary when they reformed’. And I would agree.
love to see FASTWAY reunite. THE ALARM STEVE JONES go out and play FIRE AND GASOLINE AND A BAND CALLED THE FRONT
I know its only just been over a year, and The Union are developing into a fine band, but one of the finest British bands ever really need to reform again……THUNDER !
The WiLDHEARTS with Danny. Now that would be awesome. Ginger, CJ, Danny and Stidi although Rich would do or even Bam. The real Spinal Tap for drummers!
Girl,Japan,Genesis(with Gabrial).
The Motors. McMaster, Garvey, Tchaikovsky, Wernham. Any chance of a CR feature anyway, please?
Vow Wow, with Neil ‘Curly Lamb’ Murray.
SABBATH!!!!! Would love to see Iommi share a stage.
Not Mustaine, the man wasn’t even the guitarist when their first album was released, but I’d be all for Jason getting back in!
Am I the only one that would love to see Scott back in Velvet Revolver? Not that I want to see the end of STP I was hoping he could do double duty. I was less than pleased with the new Slash record. It was weaker than both VR records.
Speaking of abonded supergroups – Audioslave anyone? It’ll never happen but I’m less upset about it now that Soundgarden are back. Though from what I can tell the SG reunion won’t be full on. No new materuial is planned. I just want to see them live in the UK!
Don’t these bands split for a reason ?? Musical differences or whatever. There is only one reason for reformation and that’s dirty cash (just look at Aerosmith) so get over it and move on.
I want to see Oliver and Dawson in Saxon!
Slade! You cocks!!!
What about Status Quo… Time for some exciting Rock ‘n’ Roll gentlemen?
Yawn….Not one worthy suggestion….UFO wasted too many years when Schenker was out of the band trying to claim their name. Fantastic records but if you want to see them live stick with the current line-up.(You could even buy an advanced ticket unlike when Schenker was with there…)
John Sykes has quietly slipped off the radar, since he departed his tribute band.
I suggest, as many have…… Lets hear a bit of Blue Murder on these shores before everyone quietly forgets he ever existed as a talented guitarist and song writer in his own right
A Maiden/Paul Di’Anno reunion would also Clive Burr. Given his current condition, that ain’t gonna happen.
CREAM
FREE, with Gary Moore taking Koss’ place
Velvet Underground w/ Doug Yule taking Sterling Morrisons place
RACER-X (classic FIVE MAN lineup, Before they regret it!!)
COVERDALE-PAGE (do a us-Euro tour!)
The mighty Kyuss.
They came close at the Hellfest in France recently when John Garcia (playing a set of Kyuss songs) was joined onstage by Brant Bjork and Nick Oliveri for Green Machine and Gardenia. The only one that was missing was Josh Homme. Obviously, Josh seems to be the one who’s against it, but I can dream.
I agree with the post that said most of those shouldn’t reform. After the last couple of years most the bands who should’ve reformed have done. Remaining on my list are:
David Lee Roth’s first solo band.
Ark (The Norwegian suprgroup one).
and a few NWOBHM bands: Jaguar (the Power Games line-up) and Shiva top that sub-list.
Although I agree with Skid Row reforming in principal the reality is that they were a band that had to be in the prime of their youth to be who they were.
Saints and sinners era whitesnake would be fab :
David Coverdale – Lead Vocals
Micky Moody – Guitars
Bernie Marsden – Guitars, Backing Vocals
Mel Galley – Backing Vocals
Jon Lord – Keyboards
Neil Murray – Bass
Ian Paice – Drums
Preferably not on another crap package deal like the def leppard one. The leps were fine but you could definitely tell they were the informal headliners.
a )Genesis with or without Peter Gabriel. Only possible when Phil Collins recovers from inhury which affects hands.
b) Queen with Paul Rogers. Its 40 years of Queen in 2011, no-one gives a stuff. 20 years in 2011 of Freddies death. I think they should do a 40th anniversary tour with Rogers. Sorry Queen fans I know its not the same, and Rogers is never gonna be like Freddie.
free with joe bonamassa in for koss
WHAT?!!
They didnt even include the original Sabbath.
THUNDER…say no more !
Best live band I ever saw was Dan Baird-era Georgia Satellites in the late 80’s, & I’ve seen most of ‘em over the last 30 years. Dan is still kickin’ serious amounts of ass with his current band Homemade Sin, & his guitar slinger Warner E Hodges (of Jason & The Scorchers fame) is both a great character & a mean guitar player, but Dan’s current rhythm section consists of bassist Keith Christopher & drummer Mauro Magellan, both of whom just happen to be original members of the Georgia Satellites. If Dan & Rick Richards could work it out & join forces again, even for just one tour, you’d have the original Georgia Satellites back together. If it were ever to happen, I’m tellin’ ya, look out!
Gabriel, Rutherford, Hackett, Banks and Collins of course. A live performance of say Lam Lies Down at Albert Hall would be nice. But it would be great if they could get in the studio, since nobody in the Genesis camp has put out anything decent creatively for at least 25 years.
The classic line up of Roxy Music would be good, with Brian Eno.
If would be nice to see the 68-73 line-up of the Stones get back together, with Mick Taylor and Bill Wyman and play the whole of Exile.
I’d also like to see Paul Rodgers with Andy Fraser together, with Simon Kirk and have a Free reunion, with Mick Ralph.
Genesis + Gabriel
Danzig with Misfits,Jim Martin with Faith No More,the first L.A.Guns line-up and The Runaways would be all really nice to see reunited…oh!and maybe bringing Bon Soctt back from hell…
THE BLACK CROWES with Marc Ford and Johnny Colt.
HAWKWIND with Nik Turner, Lemmy and Huw.
VAN HALEN with Mike.
BLACKFOOT with Rickey.
MARILLION with Fish.
GNR classic line-up.
IT BITES with Francis Dunnery
WHITESNAKE with Moody, Marsden, Murray, Lord and Paice.
RAINBOW with Doogie White (only cos RJD has gone)
GENESIS with Mr Gabriel
As well as GREEN DOLLAR COLOUR, WINTERVILLE (although The Union are amazing), SILVERTIDE and many more……
motorhead with eddie and filthy??
hawkwind with original space ritual line up??
whitesnake with ready an willing line up??
the almighty wild and wonderful line up??
we could go on all day?????????????????
Apart from MK III, Zep & UFO all the rest are totally… pointless !! Well, Motörhead with “fast” Eddie & “philthy animal” Taylor could be a hoot !!! GnR ??? Who in their right mind would book W Axl “megolmaniac” Rose ???? He´s a “hasbeen” and belongs at the nut house….while at it, throw away the key !!
Rockpile
A career too short for the all the talents they collectively had. And the egos didn’t help….but one more shout before they out, would be nice.
Blackfoot with Ricky? Couldn’t agree more. Would love to see Starfighters reform – Steve Burton has one of the great rock voices.
Silverhead ! They were a great band led by an aristocrat ex public schoolboy Michael Des Barres. A cross between Mott, Slade, T-Rex, Faces & Stones. If Def Lepp need an opening band for their next tour this band would be ideal.
VARDIS
SPIDER
We may yet see a Gilmour/Waters tour.
Spider and Vardis
Little Angels please…
Mahogany Rush, for starters. How about some impossibles, such as The Sensational Alex Harvey Band, Dust, Angel, Doors. Hell, too many to name.
Little Angels – Why has Toby Jepson been floundering in tribute band territory for so long. Little Angels were totally underrated, saw them on their final tour several time….the horns…the songs…just brilliant.
Thunder. Only been a year since they split, but am definitely missing their gigs and wish there was more albums to look forward to.
I wouldn’t have thought that anyone who had seen Di’anno perform within the last ten years would want to see him front Maiden again. I saw him singing with an Iron Maiden tribute as his backing band, not only was that pretty tragic, but he was just dire himself. No voice and a complete attitude problem.
The original W.A.S.P. with Lawless, Holmes, Piper and Richards would be a lot of fun, I reckon. Plus, it’d be killer to see all those clips on YouTube, where filming was interrupted by flying pieces of raw meat…
The original David Lee Roth – sorry, DLR – Band. I’m talking Roth, Vai, Sheehan, Bissonnette, Tuggle.
But not before the Roth-fronted Van Halen reunion makes it to these shores though…
I’d LOVE to see the Arc Angels get back together. Loved their studio album!
Not a reunion as such but the joining of two others; onle lacking a bass player and drummer, the other lacking a singer and guitarist…Mccartney, Starr, Townsend and Daltry. Now there’s a supergroup to get excited about.
Starz, Captain Beyond, Guess Who…would even settle for the Joe Lynne Turner/Doogie White versions of Rainbow.
Marillion with Fish would be awesome!
Can’t we just enjoy the memories? I don’t want fat old men wheezing away to be my final sight of the bands that I have such great memories of. There are some quality live bands out there, so let’s simply enjoy them while we can – otherwise you’ll be regretting not seeing today’s bands and demanding that they reform in 20 years
Agree with some… I think theres a few more split bands who are a bit more important than Dave playing with Metallica. eg. Rainbow & Pink Floyd
Top 10 for me would be
1. Guns N Roses
2. Pink Floyd
3. Rainbow
4. Led Zeppelin
5. Black Sabbath
6. Skid Row
7. Live
8. Faith No More (if they have stopped again)
9. The Kinks
10. Cream
the only one thats sounds plausible is deep purple mark III, they only need coverdale and hughes, because blackmore definitely wont do it and i doubt lord or paice would either the rest of band doesnt matter as along they are talented they could call themselves ”high ball shooter”
STATUS QUO—-FRANCIS/RICK/ALAN/JOHN.
I think Metallica and Maiden have made an impact with there current line up…although i wouldn’t mind seeing Jason Newstead back for a one off to celebrate 10 years of The Black Album!!!
I would like to see the original Black Sabbath get back together (it may happen???) plus Kyuss and Corrosion of Conformity with Pepper Kennan would be pretty epic.
Styx – with Dennis DeYoung
ELO – w. Jeff Lynne
Supertramp – w. R. Hodgson
CSN&Y
The Kinks – w, Ray & Dave Davies
The Birds – w. Roger McGuinn
It´s never too late – befor it´s too late
)
There is no one I want more to come back and tour than the man himself, Jake E Lee.
We don’t need a reunion band with Ozzy, just something that is real and something he enjoys.
Jake E Lee, need I say more?
Would love to see Bad News play again but I fear there is way too much resentment between Vim and Colin, just can’t see it happening…
Kyuss. Nuff said
Let’s start with the Runaways, Lita Joan, Cheri, Jackie, but with Sandy (RIP) no longer of this world, it was worth a shot. I would love to see if the sons of the Beatles get together just for kicks,And Brownsville Station, and Finally Montrose man Sammy & Ronnie together hearing Rock Candy and Make it Last over some new amps wow.
I think I’d like to see the first 3 reunion (unlikely for GN’R and Led Zep though)
I think Iron Maiden and Metallica are a lot better with this formation.
Lemmy with Hawkwind
Be-bop Deluxe
Ian and the gang of real Tull alumni (Barlow, Abrahams, Evan, Pegg, et. al.) for a real Tull reunion
More Mott the Hoople (add Luther on guitar)
Was listening to these 2 over the weekend…
HEADSWIM – just pure genius.
HEAVY PETTIN’ coz they were great fun.
Blackfoot with Ricky Medlocke is a good call, would also like to see the reformation of Winterville (a band with much untapped potential).
Helloween – “keeper of the Seven Keys” era (with Michael Kiske and Kai Hansen)
Scorpions – I’d like to see Klaus, Rudy and Mathias reunite with Francis Buchholz and Herman “ze German” Rarebell
Status Quo (Rossi, Parfitt, Lancaster, Coglan, Bown)
Motörhead (Lemmy, ‘Fast’ Eddie and Philty Taylor or Lemmy, Würzel, Phill Campbell and Philty Taylor)
Alcatrazz (Graham Bonnet, Gary Shea, Jan Uvena, Jimmy Waldo, with both Yngwie Malmsteen and Steve Vai on guitar)
David Lee Roth Band (Roth, Steve Vai, Billy Sheehan, Gregg Bissonette)
Overkill – “Taking over” line-up (Blitz, DD, Bobby Gustafson, Rat Skates)
Flotsam and Jetsam – Doomsday for the Deceiver line-up (with Jason Newsted)
Celtic Frost (Tom Warrior, Martin Ain, Ron Marks, Reed St. Mark)
Megadeth – “Rust in Peace” era (Mustaine, Ellefson, Friedman, Menza)
Metal Church (Mike Howe, Kurt Vanderhoof, Craig Wells, Duke Erickson, Kirk Arrington)
Dokken (Donnie Boy, George Lynch, Jeff Pilson, Mick Brown)
Mercyful Fate (King Diamond,Hank Shermann, Michael Denner, Timi Hansen, Kim Ruzz)
King Diamond – “Them” line-up (King, Mikkey Dee, Andy La Roque, Pete Blakk, Hal Patino)
Venom (Cronos, Mantas, Abbadon)
Tygers of Pan Tang (with John Sykes and John Deverill)
Nuclear Assault (John Connely, Danny Lilker, Anthony Bramante, Glenn Evans)
W.A.S.P. (Blackie, Chris Holmes, Randy Piper, Tony Richards or Black, Chris Holmes, Johnny Rod and Frankie Banali)
Yngwie Malmsteen’s Rising Force – Odyssey line-up (Joe Lynn Turner, Yngwie, Jens Johansson, Anders Johansson, Barry Dunaway)
Kingdom Come – first line-up (Lenny Wolf, Danny Stag, Rick Steier, Johnny B. Frank, James Kottak)
Quiet Riot (Carlos Cavazo, Rudy Sarzo, Frankie Banali, with Paul Shortino replacing the late Kevin Dubrow)
House Of Lords – first line-up (James Christian, Lanny Cordola, Greg Giuffria, Chuck Wright, Ken Mary)
Various other bands such as Warlock, Toxik, Malice, Grim Reaper, Chrome Molly, Paul Di’Anno’s Battlezone, Atrophy, Acrophet, Possessed, Riverdogs, Rough Cutt, Giuffria, Phantom Blue, Vinnie Vincent’s Invasion, Love/Hate, Damn Yankees, Vandenberg, Kix, Sweet Savage (come on Viv, don’t be a tit), Jaguar, Heir Apparent, Savage Grace, Satan, Warlord, Racer X, Killer, Crossfire, Ostrogoth, Acid, Cyclone, Target…)
Van Halen WITH Michael Anthony and NOT Wolfgang.
…and here is what GN’R would sound like if they had done Chinese Democracy with 1990 lineup.
Velvet Revolver feat. Axl Rose – If the World
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kPrGqOqXsE
Get FREE to reunite. Koss could never be properly replaced but I’m sure Gary Moore would be a good stand in. To see Fraser & Rodgers, the greatest songwriting team (forget Lennon & McCartney!) of the 20th century reunited on stage together would be mind blowing awesome.
bands reforming:
Argent
Montrose
The Tea Party
Roxy Music
E.L.O.
The Alarm
Dan Reed Network
Black Sabbath
Cactus
James Gang
Mott the Hoople
Budgie
Bad Company
The Stranglers
BAD NEWS
BAD NEWS
BAD NEWS
BAD NEWS….
Kyuss, Gillan, Suicidal Tendencies (Lights camera era) Maiden (pre Janick ‘pointless solo’ Gers) Sepultura
Havent there been a list like this before…
Id certainly buy the MKIII album, if they ever released it, or of course seem them live…. and
Rainbow reformd (would prefer original with Dio but, JLT would suffice)
Black Sabbath
Alice Cooper Band (album and tour)
Pink Floyd
Skid Row (original)
cnt think of anymore at the moment
Just think positive; GNR will eventually reunite!
1.ANGEL w/ Guffria and Punky Meadows.
2.The BABYS
Queensryche with Chris Degarmo!
Everyone seems to have forgotten about Uriah Heep with Ken Hensley
And of course the greatest live band EVER – Deep Purple MkII
Cry of Love (any line-up would do both albums had awesome singers)
Screamin’ Cheetah Wheelies (Need Mike Farris playing rock ‘n’ roll again)
Skycycle (sublime 90’s outfit with Panic Channel vocalist)
Panic Channel (tho I’m happy Jane’s is back)
Mayfield Four (Alter Bridge and the slash album suck Kennedy should get back to this band they were awesome)
….and loeads more I’m forgetting about I’m sure.
Agreed with silvertide poster awesome band.
WISHBONE ASH reunite ? Wishbone Ash is still going strong today after 40 years, with Andy Powell still at the helm, and is a world class act: constant worldwide tourdates, new releases, DVDs, huge internet following…..whilst Turner slogs away with an inferior lineup, capitalizing on Powell’s continued, non-interrupted 40 years of music….Turner’s voice is shot, as was evident at High Voltage, Ted Turner tried horrendously to release a ‘new age’ album with programmed music, and Upton hasnt played in 20 years..
Dream on….let Powell continue to kick some butt!!! WA of today is IMO more of a force than the Argus era
DiAnno? Why – with the current line-up playing and producing better stuff than ever. Ditto Purple – why not Mark II, rather than III anyway. Plant is past it now, so why bother even asking him.
Yes!! QUEENSRYCHE with Chris DeGarmo!!
Classic DOKKEN line-up!!!! Yesssssss!!!!!
Also … SKID ROW with Sebastian Bach!!!
I would like to see Black Sabbath make one more record and tour. Great suggestion to have Mick Taylor and Bill do shows or even an album with the Stones. As far as GNR goes, I would say let sleeping dogs lie. I think that beside Axl, all of the other members have made far too many better recordings to quit and do it. Deep Purple would be good if it were the MKII lineup. Led Zep wouldn’t be any good because Robert Plant wouldn’t be into it so it wouldn’t roll, it’s too bad that it never happened, Jason is an excellent drummer, what made Zep great was that you had four musicians with the same goal. I wish JP would at least reunite with his guitar and go out and do something.
Did see ELP for the first time since 1992. Great show. They should stay together more. Would also be nice to see first edition of KC fraom 1969 – and a reassembly of Colosseum would also be nice, but – sadly Heckstall-Smith is no onger with us.
Free with Joe Bonamassa in for Paul Kossoff is the best idea I have heard for ages – mouthwatering !
Pink Floyd!!!
1. Sabbath-Orginal Line up
2. Deep Purple-MKIII
3. Blackfoot
4. Steppenwolf- w/orginal members Goldy McJohn, Michael Monarch and John Kay-A new album wouldn’t be bad either.
Some great suggestions above. Particularly like the idea of Noddy Holder re-uniting with Slade. Ricky Medlocke really should take a pay cut & get back with the mighty Blackfoot, altho’ it’d never be the same without Jakson Spires. It’s a shame that the original Derringer line-up cancelled their UK tour last year at the last minute – what a great band they were.
All in all tho’, if a band is gonna reform, it has to be for artistic reasons rather than just to make money. You have to admire Robert Plant – his integrity will simply not allow him to go for the easy millions because he’s still an evolving artist who has moved on from what he was doing 40 years ago, & he’s actually protecting Zeppelin’s legacy by not cashing in on it. In his eyes, it’d be wrong to rejoin the worlds’ biggest rock band unless it’s for artistic reasons, & that kind of integrity is to be applauded. Release the DVD of the 02 gig from 2007, Jimmy, & that’ll be that.
Thunder
One of the most underrated bands of all time.
WAYSTED,with classic line up of Danny vaughn,pete way,paul chapman,john diteodoro-Save your prayers(what a classic album)
Sepultura
Not so sure about JLBJH with Les Holroyd. First of all, I think it’s more about Les not wanting to join with Lees and Wolstenholme rather than the other way around. And second of all, the JLBJH is vastly superior as they have the best songs from the back-catalogue. BJH always felt like two bands stitched together, and perhaps they’re better keeping apart now.
Helloween with both Kiske and Hansen.
To bad drummer ingo has passed away in the 90’s.
Just playing the first 3 albums on tour, and let hansen sing some to:d
Status quo with Lancaster and Coghlan..
Also getting Nick oliveri back in qotsa would be a nice thing.
The Darkness! Best band of the past ten years by far.
Guns N’ Roses I agree with. That’d break every currently held record for tour attendance, profit and everything else in my opinion. It would just have to be a matter of getting to see them before they implode again. And, yes, by everything else I include bad stuff, like temper tantrums and going on late. Let’s hope Steven Adler doesn’t die or relapse until after the (albeit far-fetched) reunion.
Oasis need to get back together.
Thin Lizzy circa “Jailbreak”. OK, so Phil Lynott’s dead, but I strongly suggest that somebody bring him back to life.
To be honest, most of these suggestions are better off in your imagination than for real, probably. (Di’anno with Maiden???, Tony Adams and Arsenal…???)
But Rolling Stones with Wyman and Mick Taylor, wow!
Supertramp (With Roger Hodgson)
Rolling Stones (Wyman and Taylor)
Iron Maiden (Paul Di’anno)
The Original Wishbone Ash
Original Barclay James Harvest with Les Halroyd
Who is Ross the Ross???
This list is fukin stupid Guns’n'Roses should never reunite and as for Manowar Karl Logan is a beast of a true metal axeman \M/ \M/
the subject was already flippant enough.. no need to dumb it down by bringing marino the bland into the mix.. they sucked. endof.
Badlands with Kelly Keelinng replacing the late great Ray Gillen!
marillion with fish
ELO with jeff lynn
slade with noddy
skid row
montrose
any of the above please
getting mustaine in metallic ais good idea………but it wont last for long……………..mustaine is known for his guiar work in metallica and in MEGADETH ………………i also like his personality of revenge……………..he is the god……..MUSTAINISM
I would like to see Entwistle & Moon return from the dead and reunite the original who lineup.
That would be awesome!
Anyone who thinks that Gary Moore could possibly replace Paul Kossoff in Free obviously never heard any Free. Very difficult role to fill but possibly Leslie West, Brian Robertson or Mick Taylor.
Taylor, Wyman back in the Stones and Ron back with Rod? You know it makes sense. Don’t know if Keith would agree mind!
All of the ABOVE! Leppard with Maiden! Sleave!
Def-Leppard-Iron-Maiden-RUSH!
I LOVE IT! That is the ROCK-N-Roll Classic Hall of Fame! My Friends!
Some good suggestions here, but it’s got to be Slade with Noddy for me – Preferrably with an Edinburgh date on a Saturday night supported by Mamas Boys!
Lisa Dominique? what about my ol’ band Mournblade!
Wishbone Ash – a real version:
Martin Turner – bass & vox
Ted Turner – guitar & vox
Laurie Wisefield – guitar & vox
Steve Upton – drums
A union of Free/Bad Company
Free with Mick Ralphs on guitar and Bad Company with Andy Fraser handling the bass. Rogers and Kirke is in place with both bands anyway…
