If you missed some of your favorite '80s and '90s bands the first time around, there's a good chance you can catch them on the reunion trail this summer.

Reunions, packaging and pricing are key this year as artists and promoters try to fill seats in a soft economy.

No Doubt and Phish may be most anticipated, but Blink-182, Creed, Jane's Addiction and Fleetwood Mac also are back after breakups or long spells away.

Blink-182 singer Tom DeLonge says the California punk band is wiser than they were when they last toured in 2005.

The great bands from the 80's and 90's usually inspire 'tribute bands' and their music 'cover versions' this in turn keeps their music alive and constantly being aired on radio and tv. Yes this reunion may be great for younger fans who love the music and have never seen their idols play, but it will be a bit of a shock if they turn up looking all pudgy, baldy and wrinkly.
