		Bands Reunited was a television program produced by VH1 in 2004.
		A show normally consisted of the crew first hunting down the ex-members of the band (often first in disguise) one-by-one, and convincing them to agree for the one-time concert; the members were "contracted" by signing a record album by their former band.
		The band members were then interviewed, usually focusing on the reasons of the breakup.

		A show normally consists of the crew first hunting down the ex-members of the band (often first in disguise) one-by-one, and convincing them to agree for the one-time concert; the members are "contracted" by signing a classic album of their former band.
		It is followed by the formal reunion of the band in the rehearsing studio, and a joint interview about why the group parted ways.
		All members reunited, but Cheryl Cooley did not participate in the performance due to friction between her and the other bandmates for starting up her own version of Klymaxx without permission.

	"Bands Reunited" Tour Petition (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		It is a strong concept for “reality show”, and in that regard succeeds in creating drama around the search for scattered and estranged band members, and exposing and presenting the personal/human dynamics of reuniting old friends/band-mates.
		The strong emphasis on the searching out and reuniting of the members is as interesting as it is heartwarming, and should absolutely be part of the show, but ultimately overshadows and undermines the show’s goal of the “one-time, one-night-only” performance.
		It is clear from many of the band members’ reactions that they would jump at the chance to do such a tour, if they knew that the demand and the opportunity were present.

	Y&T/Meniketti Forums - VH1 Bands Reunited
		It lets bands heal the wounds and realize how much playing together back in the day was the heyday of their life, and that it will always be in their blood.
		Sure, shit happens with every band, but this show lets them forget all the bad things and lets them remember the great feelings of playing before their fans for so many years.
		When my lovely wife was very young, 16 or younger (she'll correct me on this) she smooched with the guy from one of the bands on that show.

	The Daily Evergreen Online - Life - Other
		Bands like Duran Duran and Tears for Fears have set aside their differences, and are in the process of re-igniting their careers and jumping back into mainstream consciousness.
		However, other bands need a little push, and that is the motivation behind VH1’s series “Bands Reunited.” The series focuses on bands that exploded during the infancy of music video, only to fizzle into obscurity years later.
		The biggest attraction “Bands Reunited” has is not necessarily the possibility of old bands playing together again, although it is exciting when an original lineup decides to dust off its heyday hits for a crowd of joyous fans.

	bands reunited for all musicians
		The idea is for the other band members to add their own details so that both the family tree and the inter band member e-mail facilities will work.
		If you know that other band members do not have the facilities to enable them to enter their own details or if a band member has passed away then send us their details and we will enter them for you.
		When listing band members if there is an 'e-mail' link to the left of the band member you can send a standard message to that band member to say that you would like to contact them.

	Lazy-i: Sad reflections on pop culture, take 1...
		Throughout the journey, viewers were told the band's history in classic Behind the Music style, explaining the rise and fall and ultimate break-up, confronting band members one-by-one to get their take on what went down.
		Each reunited band is given a 15-second introduction before being lifted out of the stage amidst a plume of steam (as if being reincarnated from some sort of rock and roll hell).
		After singing their hit, the bands were trotted out again to sing a modern-day cover -- painful for the bands and the audience.

	'80S bands are 'reunited' on VH1
		For "Bands Reunited," debuting Monday night, VH1 doesn't merely send out invitations to regroup the original members of hit '80s bands.
		The other bands featured are Romeo Void (Tuesday), A Flock of Seagulls (Wednesday), Klymaxx (Thursday), Frankie Goes to Hollywood (Friday), Kajagoogoo (Jan. 26), Extreme (Jan. 27), Dramarama (Jan. 28), The Alarm (Jan. 29) and Squeeze (Jan. 30).
		Like "Behind the Music," the drama of "Bands Reunited" is seeing what became of artists who were once the toast of MTV and watching their emotional reunions.

	VH1 gives '80s bands an encore - The Boston Globe
		On the surface, VH1's new series "Bands Reunited" looks like the sort of television that would appeal exclusively to folks waiting for parachute pants and Jheri curl to make a roaring comeback.
		Once enough members of a band have been tracked down and signed on to the reunion, they have just a day or two to rehearse and reconnect before the big concert.
		This is when the drama kicks into high gear, particularly in the case of Klymaxx, the RandB girl group that scored with the hit "Meeting in the Ladies Room." Guitarist Cheryl Cooley absconded with the band's name and formed a new Klymaxx, much to the chagrin of the original members.

	Imissthe80s-Bands Reunited Episode Reviews
		We admit, we are now addicted and love Bands Reunited, but check out this review we wrote when season one first started several years ago.
		VH-1's Bands Reunited might as well be named One Hit Wonders Reunited, well that might not be fair since some of the groups had 1 1/2 hits or a few almost hits.
		I was excited at the prospect of this show but the first few episodes disapointed me. The high drama of the Kajagoogoo and Extreme episodes made me think the show had great potential.

	deseretnews.com \| 'Bands Reunited' mixes harmony, discord
		Host Aamer Haleem and the show's staff contact former members of the various groups — by bursting in on them unannounced — and try to talk them into meeting their ex-bandmates for a one-night performance that is included in the show.
		Monday's premiere reunites the members of Berlin, including Terri Nunn and John Crawford, whose battles over the direction of the group caused, not only its demise but the demise of their personal relationship.
		Despite the band members' initial reluctance, "Bands Reunited" seems to have gone a long way toward healing their old wounds.

	Kurt Harland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The band eventually split, member by member, leaving him alone to release the last album Don't Be Afraid in 1997.
		In a 2004 episode of VH1's Bands Reunited, Kurt Harland was the only invited band member who refused to participate in an Information Society reunion concert, upsetting many fans.
		Although Harland apparently accepted the invitation on-camera by signing a copy of their first album (on the show, band members are "contracted" by signing a classic album cover of their former band) he did not show up for the reunion concert, limiting his participation to a solo interview (VH1 2004).

	Bands on the run - Salon
		Another thing Michaels couldn't possibly have known at the time: Nearly three decades later, producers who probably hadn't even been born yet in 1976 would be making riveting television by doing essentially the very same thing: VH1's new "Bands Reunited" debuted on Jan. 19, and it is, without a doubt, the greatest show on earth.
		Instead, the producers of "Bands Reunited" tend to target long-dormant headliners from the '80s.
		After all, the four had arranged for their manager to boot him out of the band without explanation nearly 20 years earlier, effectively ending his career.

		This is the reason performances by bands such as Aerosmith, KISS and ZZ Top - artists dating back to the Genesis era - are billed as some of the best live shows still today.
		If problems present themselves that are big enough to break the chemistry of a band, the differences should be respected and the band and its work should be immediately halted and retired.
		Those are the exact reasons broken-up bands should be left alone; art doesn't need to be pressed out of people whose chemistry is long since shot.

		They were a fantastic band live either as the original 4 piece or when they brought on other musicians.
		I just don't think the history of the band's break-up would work--even though--as seen with some of the bands--the anger and such has decreased over the long period of time the bands have been apart.
		Unlike for instance the likes of david sylvian or peter murphy who have, respectively, moved on from their original bands (japan and bauhaus) to ain interesting solo career not afraid of thaking chances and explore new grounds.

		The Police would be cool but they already reunited for the Rock'N'Roll Hall of Fame last year and it's highly unlikely they'd ever reunited for a cheesy VH1 series.
		Great New Jersey 80's band whose major influences were the Warhol scene of the 60's and the glam-rock early 70's performers like Mott the Hoople and David Bowie.
		They were a band that should have been big, but just formed at the wrong time.

		Bands broke up, music institutions closed, legends and stalwarts got sick, some died.
		Amid the gloom and melancholy, however, moments of resurrection erupted: Bands reunited, nightclubs opened and reopened, music fans and musicians started their own record labels, and local bands issued some of the year’s best music.
		At the Davey’s show — the band’s first in more than six months — he provided a glimpse of the will and the fight that burn inside him.
