HAY THATS FUNNY HOW YOU SPELLED THE “BLOCK” IN “BLOCK PARTY” WITHOUT A “C” LIKE AS IN “BLOC PARTY” LIKE THE BAND GAHAHAHA
And how many of these bands were affiliated with T&G at the beginning of this 25 year career?
Oh yeah, none. Ha.
I would have thought that any band on pre-hipster T&G would have just laughed at the thought of a “reunion,” but I guess I was wrong.
Mmm mmm. I love me some Bob Weston. I am totally there.
Scratch Acid!?!
Holy Shit!
I never saw that coming…
Scratch Acid reuniting is FUCKING AWESOME!!!
Now if only we could also get a Jesus Lizard reunion.
