    unfortunately only recently got into ELO, superb music, but Jeff Lynne says he won't do it again

    If you're into ELO, it's worth looking out for The Orchestra. Essentially, ELO without Jeff Lynne. Saw them at a work gig in Leeds a few years ago. Very impressed and they very much sounded like the original.

    I believe they're playing a festival in Yorkshire (Grassington?) soon but they play across the globe.

    EDIT: Damn it - they played Grassington last night!

    The Boo Radleys! Been a big fan of them since about 1995/96, but I was too young back then, and sadly they split up in 1999. Luckily I've at least managed to see Sice and Martin Carr live a few times. I'm 99,99% sure that The Boo Radleys will never reform again though. I suppose that's a shame, but they were always a band who never looked back and always went on to experiment with some new stuff with each new album - that's what made them so great and unique in my opinion. :cool: So, in a way I'm not sure if I even want them to reform and just play their old hits again... Did that make any sense?! :p

    Of bands that are still (somewhat) active, I'd love to see Super Furry Animals. There's another truly exciting and creative band, and apparently they're amazing live too.

    Most bands who reform are usually disappointing...Exception, for me, was the Pixies a few years ago...They'd all put three stone on, but the sound was feckin awesome.

    Without a doubt it would have to be Queen (with Freddie obviously).

    The Jam.

    I've seen The Who a few times and they are my favourite live band, absolutely immense.

    Hard question to answer, but I'd have to say Oasis... Or The Libertines.
