Shameless, bored vanity - What Rock legends (those that are left) need to make amends w/ band mates, and treat us again?

Who else needs to figuratively kiss and make up?

At the rate they are dying off (and with what's left), I can only think of 2 cases - Roger and Rick of Supertramp, and Dennis and Tommy of Styx.

I'm sure there are many more.

Add to the list.

Gordon Sumner needs to get over himself and do a post-COVID tour with Andy Summers and Stewart Copeland.

While they will never play RUSH music again, Alex and Geddy do sell RUSH beer. (54 second commercial)

I think Roger Waters is too far gone.

Pink Floyd is done and it has nothing to do with Water's excursions into some odd topics. They are figuratively played out with nothing new to offer.

Axl Rose and the original line up of Guns N Roses.

I think that’s mostly happened. Axl, Slash & Duff are touring I think. I can’t imagine Axl can sound close to the same.

John Lennon and George Harrison must wake up from death and perform with Paul and Ringo in my backyard.

I saw Supertramp in concert in 1979 or 1980 in Philly at the Spectrum. They were they only band playing and really gave a great show. They had the whole place jumping.

Andy Summers is 80 years old! I was shocked when I learned that recently. However, consider he was already in his mid 30s when he joined The Police in 1977.

Not sure if he'll want to put his creaky bones on tour with Gordon and Stewart. But that was a great band. Only five studio albums and all of them good. They definitely are one of the few bands who broke up while they were still on top of their game.

Queensryche with Geoff Tate will never happen. Todd La Torre has been with them for a decade now and I have seen them live twice.

They reunited around 1981 or so and did a short tour. I saw them at the Pontiac Silverdome. Horrible acoustics.

Talking Heads.

All the original members are still alive, but apparently, Byrne is the holdout. The others have said they’d be willing to do it.

Would be nice if John Entwistle’s son played bass.

Byrne suffers(ed) from a behavioral complex like a mild autism or something similar. A lack of empathy according to one of his former girlfriends. He is truly talented but in his childhood he had an inferiority complex or shyness or something. He gave a recent interview and he sounds normal and he talked about his childhood. I’m sure he just doesn’t feel the “need” to heal old wounds.

David Crosby should have made things right with Stills, Young and Nash before he passed. Alcohol ruined him.

Zep and Floyd would be appreciated by we boomers

And others younger

The Stones still give a good pro show with Chuck Leavell and the black bassist and girl vocalist for the big numbers

Worth the ticket

I’ve seen Ron Wood and Rod do old Faces stuff well with Rod having to pick banjo which is a treat with Ron picking on him

Creedence well I doubt but could happen cause Fogerty is mercurial

Paul Rodgers with anyone

Ozzy is out

Guns and Roses maybe

Roger Neil and Stephen would be nice

But everyone is quite old now and they aren’t all Mick
