poison idea - pick your king

Remember where you heard it wrong first! No sooner than we revealed the Fab Four weren't reforming, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr announce they'll be performing together next month.

This really should be one to remember, and a great opportunity for Starr to prove for once and for all that despite what the rest of the band has said in the past, he is the most talented drummer in the BEATLES.

This Drum and Bass performance could prompt other unlikely reunions. The RAMONES would be a classic, with Tommy performing the same bum-tit bum-tit bum-tit drum patterns for 20 minutes. He'd appear as The RAMONE of course.

Talking of Tommy, there's always the WHO. Without Keith Moon and the Ox, they are reduced to an alleged pedo and a fish farmer, but well worth another run out, don't you think?

After the death of skag-partial bass player, Sid Vicious, the SEX PISTOLS could get back together as three fat blokes in their 50s, joined by the idiotic bassist they unceremoniously ditched 30 years earlier. Oh, they did.

Here's a very appropriate record by a very appropriate group of people, POISON IDEA. Sadly, iconic guitarist Pig Champion is no longer with us. Now there's one musician you can't replace.
