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.

I like to see Robert Fripp with anyone

A patriot

He and his adorable wife doing Heroes for poppies day is a treat

King Crimson is likely out

Another Heroes rendition obviously impossible now

Lemmy RIP

Syd started the band but his influence is legendarily overemphasized mostly due to the LSD legacy and band referring to him 10 years

Peter Green similar demise was a bigger force in Mac

First of three eras anyhow

That’s not the point

People pay to see the hits done

Relive it

I’m sure he just doesn’t feel the “need” to heal old wounds.

I thought it was cool when Mick Taylor played w/ the Stones a few years ago. I like Ronnie Wood, but Taylor was just better at those early 70’s songs imo.

I’d definately pay to see Supertramp.

Simon and Garfunkel perhaps, but the issue with older singers is they often really lose their voice.

I did see the Dixie Dregs recent reunion with Steve Morse, excellent.

I’d go see the Eurythmics again if they toured.

Fleetwood mac was always entertaining the 3 times I saw them.

Elder musicians are just fine resting on their back catalogs, so long as they’re healthy enough to play concerts.

I’ll see your Steve Perry and raise you a Gregg Rolie. (Sorry, but I prefer the pre-Perry Journey.)

Actually, Gregg Rolie needs to get back with Santana.

Heh. In that case, does Neal Schon as well?

From what I’ve seen Dennis and Tommy are at peace with each other, but they’re doing their own thing and have no urge to work together.

Rick and Roger are big quits, and Rick is sick. So no reunion there ever.

They’ve done a couple of one offs. But Fish says Marillion is doing great without him and there’s no reason for them to go backward for a reunion with a guy who hasn’t been in the band for decades and is only on a small part of their catalog.

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

Does Lorne Michaels' $75 offer still stand?

Entire “classic” Motorhead lineup is gone with Fast Eddie Clarke’s passing in 2018.
