Biggest reformation of 2009
2nd December

The Biggest Reformation Of 2009?

A promoter has revealed that he is in talks to bring us a rock reunion that’s second only to Led Zeppelin in terms of magnitude.

Promoter Rob Hallett told the BBC that he’s in talks with an unnamed huge band to tour in 2009.

"I do have another reformation up my sleeve that I can't talk about yet that is going to please a lot of people of a certain age,” he said. "If you were a teenage boy in the pre- punk '70s you're going to be very excited. Outside of Led Zeppelin, this is probably the biggest reformation you can hope for."


And like many of these rumours, the speculation is already rife over who the mystery band is.



WAS GOING TO LEAVE THIS PART OUT (as it is laughable at best)

Suggestions so far have included a Ritchie Blackmore Deep Purple, Roxy Music, ELO, a Peter Gabriel/Steve Hackett Genesis and Supertramp

Spinal Tap?

Someone explain Supertramp to me. I thought they were very overrated.

How about a Pink Floyd reunion with Waters and Gilmour.

cream was 2004?

some are saying this....


(also laughable in my book)

ROD STEWART has confirmed that 70s supergroup THE FACES are set for a reunion, more than 30 years after the band split.

Earlier this week (Nov 10 2008), website Raygigs.com reported that Stewart and other original members Ronnie Wood, Ian MCLagan and Kenney Jones had booked a secret rehearsal slot next week (Nov 17 2008) to see if the band still had what it takes to launch a string of reunion shows next year (09).

Scheduling problems between the members has hampered previous comeback plans - but Stewart has confirmed that this time it is a reformation is definitely on.

He says, "Yes, absolutely. We have our first rehearsal on Monday. It will be next summer and I am looking forward to it. It'll be great."

And Stewart is adamant that Wood's recent break-up with wife of 23 years Jo won't hold the star back from giving everything to the tour.

He adds, "Ronnie is up for it. I think he feels great. He is full of energy and very excited. We try not to mix our family problems with work. I'll see him Monday."

The band has previously reunited for a handful of one-off gigs - Wood and MCLagan performed with Stewart at the Hollywood Bowl in 2004.

Stewart's touring bass player is expected to complete the group, replacing late bassist Ronnie 'Plonk' Lane, who died in 1997.

Well that promoter is on crack if he is comparing Rod to Zep, I seriously doubt this is the band the article is referring to.
