[1001001]

For those of us...ahem...more senior members of TrekBBS, this summer will provide a great opportunity to relive some musical memories from high school.

The Rockin' the Colonies 2008 Tour has begun announcing dates and selling tickets for shows around the United States this summer.

The line up is: The English Beat, The Alarm, and The Fixx.

Some of the dates already announced are:

Now I've never seen the English Beat, but I've seen The Alarm (a million times) and The Fixx before. This should be a lot of fun.

So hop on your Vespas, get out your trenchcoats and thin black ties, and get ready to ride the New Wave again!

Still having trouble remembering who won that war, I see...

Well, they're getting on in years.

Maybe they just forgot...



So...no one likes/remembers these bands? Am I alone on my nostalgia trip here?

I'm a huge fan of The Fixx. "Stand or Fall" is one of my favorite songs ever recorded.
