Re-Verve

Amazing. The Verve are getting back together! Despite only releasing a few albums I still listen to them quite a bit - and of course "Bittersweet Symphony" is still one of the greatest songs ever written. According to their website they are back in the studio recording and have six dates booked in Britain in November. I'd love to be at one of those Glasgow shows...but its not happening. I just hope they don't break up again before they play the US. I also hope their new album is better than some of Richard Ashcroft's solo stuff, because for the most part they weren't working for me.

Now, if you remember The Verve were listed as the top band I wanted to see reunite. C'mon Talking Heads, you're up next!
