It's the reformation...

Times must be bad amongst ageing rock stars as reformation fever has kicked in....First Van Halen put aside the fact that the original line-up hates each other to get back for a US tour...then the long-awaited Led Zeppelin reunion nears completion for this autumn (even the BBC have gotten in on the speculation act!)...and now it appears that Ozzy, Iommi, Butler and Ward will undertake a final Sabbath tour in 2008...
All these wrinkly rockers forgot to invest wisely and are now forced into pension plan tours...or at least that's what a cynical eye would see....

Yes, everyone that can still move seems to be back on the road again. Good news for us rockfans, but I think the reason is also that many folk are now downloading and copying albums without handing over their hard-earned to the record companies. Greater official merchandise sales needed....etc. An interesting side effect of the internet revolution, where would this site be without it...:-)
