Band reunions: good or bad?

Band reunions: good or bad?

New Kids On The Block are rumoured to be the latest band set to reunite, joining the likes of Take That, The Spice Girls, The Police, Crowded House, Rage Against The Machine, Van Halen and The Smashing Pumpkins in announcing a comeback.

Some comeback attempts have met with indifference - All Saints, East 17 and Bananarama have all received a lukewarm critical response. Does the same fate await New Kids On The Block?

What do you think of band reformations? Who would you like to see reform? Which bands should never even think about getting back together?

    I hope Take That don't let Robbie Williams back in the band as he was the reason they broke up before.
    Robbie Williams is just a big headed fat talentless dancer who got 'very' lucky.
    Don't let him ruin it again.
