[Doozer]

Mott The Hoople were active from 69-74 and have announced comeback gigs for October this year !!!!

Would you believe that Queen were support act on their 74 American tour.

They announced 2 reunion gigs for next month, both sold out as have the newly added third , fourth and fifth.

35 years ! Now THATS a Comeback.


....and most if not all the young dudes will have never even heard of them.

Ian Hunter - MTH Frontman on Rock n' Roll
Ian Hunter smiles. "It's cost me," he says. "But the minute rock'n'roll arrived, I thought, 'Oh – that's what I'm for.' And it's what I'll do till the day I pop off."

Showing your age Banned User, you must be nearly as old as me.

I remember the band too Rover and Im definitely not as old as you.

[experienced punter]

I see that Spandau Ballet are going to release some new songs to tie in with their comeback tour.
After recent comebacks by the likes of the Spice Girls Take That and Boyzone I just wonder if anyone here has any opinions on these acts reforming.
Is it all down to making money or do they feel that they still have the inspiration that gave them their original success?

To Cut A Long Story Short its True..

Just like footballers, boxers racecar driveS, and hookers the desire to go at it again, and see ''if I'm still all that'' isn't far from many a r'etired' musicians mind; yeah, the money is usually a deciding factor, but what a factor. How many of us wouldn't ditch the 'day job', huck up with mates you've haven't spoken with years, and prefer not too, dust off the old songs and go on the road again? Getting paid, getting laid and getting away from it all! Can blame them for comming back?

Now, if Lez Zeppelin would comeback, that would be some COMEBACK.
The 80's did produce some amazing music, but it's true what they say, YouTube - Video Killed the Radio Star

If they come up with new material then you can say they have the inspiration.
If its just the 80's revisited its ego & money.

I'd love to manage the heavenly quartet, Pavarotti, Elvis, Freddie Mercury and Michael Jackson and organise their Universal Tour for them.......teach them aliens a thing or two about blue planet music.

Actually Carlos I think the real Michael Jackson was abducted by aliens around 1985 and replaced by a human- alien hybrid.
Well its as good an explanation as any for this;

Anyone ever seen Invasion of the Body Snatchers?

I thought you said the other day that you were a 150, well I'm only a 100, so you are older, why sure you must have attended Nelson Eddys' birth.

Exactly Westcorklad, that's why it's about time that we made contact with our brothers and sisters in space and try to market our music to them. So they know about Jackson and Elvis already.....but they're only the tip of the iceberg.
