Bananarama

Why are Bananarama getting back together, so long after they "Split"?

Re: Bananarama

Why do any bands do it ? Fun, money, ambition ? I'm waiting for beautiful south to get back together they split just at a time I was really enjoying their music.

Selling nostalgia perhaps.

Re: Bananarama

It says that two members of the group have still been singing together for quite a few years and had a bit of success. It is the third member of the group who is rejoining them after being in another band Shakespeares Sister.

There is still a lot of nostalgia for this type of music.

Re: Bananarama

Many of these groups must see the tribute bands making money and think that's a bit of a cheek too, I know one band has said that's why they made their come back they realised people were paying to see pretend thems and were shocked no one had asked them to play the gigs themselves.

Re: Bananarama

It makes financial sense. There are some very remunerative '80's Tours doing the rounds at the moment - why not jump on the bandwagon and top up your pension!
I preferred Siobhan Fahey in Shakespeare's Sister though! Her demonic personality meshed well with Marcy Levy's somewhat sweeter approach.
