I get a kick out of typing up the schedules for the local nightspots — mainly the Seattle ones — because I love good band names.
But it struck me this week how many of these shows over in Seattle are labeled as “Reunion” shows. Some band I never heard of, which means they never did anything worth hearing about, is reuniting.
Like: “Meat and the Gristle (Reunion Show)”.
I never noticed when Meat and the Gristle broke up. I never noticed when they did anything. Neither did you. Neither did anybody else. So why are they reuniting?
The listing should be more like: “WARNING: Meat and the Gristle (Needless Reunion Show)”
On the other hand, if Drive It Like You Stole It ever reunites, let me know …
Sorry for ranting.
