Even one hit wonders can now be part of a marvellous "live" show featuring several huge hits from different eras. If enough imagination combines with this stunning technology, we are into a sensational new era - thanks to B&B.
I don't think the younh people have imaginations these day's, they only like what they see on their devices.
A few hours ago I had a call with a friend about classic bands that touring with one or two members. My response was if the lead singer is still there and a key member who has been with the band from the beginning or on the important albums, then probably yes, if it was a good price also.
I hate that 'Foreigner' still tour with no orginal members or members that are not on the albums. It's now a tribute band. I would like to see Alabama again Randy Owen and Teddy Gentry can still sing and play. The gigs won't be as wild of course.
Kiss have had 10 members but its a Gene and Paul band. Peter Criss is on track on Dynasty but it's a classic album and a lot KISS do like it.
Creatures Of The Night has a lot of session guitarists. However it's a great album to listen to whilst driving.
I think any band that continues without its original lead singer or the singer that was present during their heyday, then they have no credibility. Big Country played one of thes lets rock 80s gigs with I think only one original member (bass player). Obviously Stuart Adamson is no longer with us. Spandau Ballet failed miserably without Tony Hadley, no one can re-create his voice
Journey is another band, Arnel Pineda is good the band hired him after seeing him on YouTube. But is it still Journey is ? Marillion is another one, that causes arguments amongst fans, however I do like their later stuff as well as their early stuff.
I love Genesis with either Peter or Phill singing. I wish they did an instrumental album.
Mike + The Mechanics are still going without the late Paul Young who was a fantastic singer and Paul Carrack is on important songs as well but now tours solo. Andrew Roachford is can incredible singer, I guess with supergroups it's different.
