Line 4:
* [[Michael Jackson]] [[Author Existence Failure|dies before]] [[Retirony|his upcoming comeback tour!?]] [[Big No|NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!]] Wait, AEG will compile all his rehearsals from that concert tour, and make it into a documentary? After showing [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81_9vDgW1eY that awesome clip] from CNN? Two tickets please!
** And then there's [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyrkcz7msfY this].
*** ONLY TWO WEEKS!? THAT'S TOO SHOR....Wait? [https://web.archive.org/web/20100105235435/http://hollywoodinsider.ew.com/2009/11/02/why-sony-decided-to-leave-this-is-it-in-theaters-through-thanksgiving/ Until Thanksgiving!?] Thanks, [[Sony]]!
* Son of a Bitch, [[Metallica (Music)|Metallica]] are making -another- albu...Wait, Rick Rubin AKA the guy that did ''Reign in Blood'' for [[Slayer (Music)|Slayer]] is on board? They are going back to their 80's trademark sound!? * Headbang* (of course Metallica's fandom being an [[Unpleasable Fanbase]], half didn't like it...)
* Oh, great, [[Megadeth (Music)|Megadeth]] will do a ''Rust In Peace'' 20-year-anniversary tour... wait... DAVID ELLEFSON IS BACK IN THE BAND? Awesome!
** And now, Joey Belladonna has returned to [[Anthrax (Music)|Anthrax]]. Just in time for the Sonisphere festival... which will feature Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax and Slayer. Yes, you've read it right: the BIG FOUR of [[Thrash Metal]]. Playing together. In the same lineup. [[The Eighties]] are back, [[This Is All The Tropes Bitch|bitch]]!
* [[Iced Earth]] is going through with the sequel to ''Framing Armageddon''? Ugh, [[Replacement Scrappy|Tim Owens]] is just going to ruin it again, just like he did with ''Framing Armageddon''. What's that? Matt Barlow was rerecruited to take his place back? And they announced a rerecorded version of ''Framing Armageddon'' with Barlow on vocals? HELL YEAH!!!
** The re-recording of ''Framing Armageddon'' looks like [[Vaporware]], though.
* Back in 1999, [[Iron Maiden (Music)|Iron Maiden]] fans were happy seeing [[Bruce Dickinson (Music)|Bruce Dickinson]] returned. And exploded in excitement seeing he brought guitarist Adrian Smith back as well.
* This was most likely the fandom's reaction to the [[Ayreon]] album ''The Human Equation''. Hmm, ''Universal Migrator'' wasn't that great compared to the others... and this one has nothing to do with sci-fi? And [[The Scrappy|James]] [[Dream Theater (Music)|LaBrie]] is playing the main character? I think I'll pass... Wait a second, [[Opeth|Mikael Åkerfeldt]]? [[Strapping Young Lad|Devin Townsend]]!? THANK YOU, ARJEN LUCASSEN!
* Dammit, when the hell is EMI going to release the special edition reissue of ''[[David Bowie|Station to Station]]''? It was announced, like, a year ago! What's that...there's going to be a special edition ''and'' deluxe edition of the album, with the deluxe edition containing the 2010 remastering of the album and the Live Nassau '76 bootleg on CD ''and'' vinyl?? But that's too much for my little Bowie-loving heart to take! Wait...in addition to that, the deluxe edition will have a photo booklet with never-before-seen Bowie photos, pictures of rare memorabilia, and ''replicas of the Bowie On Stage 1976 press kit folders and '76 fan club folders''? All is forgiven, EMI, ALL IS FORGIVEN!
* [[The Legend of Zelda]]: Symphony of the Goddesses. After three 2011 concerts and no announcement of other shows, this came as a bit of a pleasant surprise. But wait, there's two new movements alongside [[Crowning Music of Awesome|the previous line-up?]] AND they're touring worldwide? [[Big Yes|YES!]]
Line 21:
** Ughh, LASERS wasn't even that good, there was way too much [[Executive Meddling]], he was great, but it looks like this is just another case of [[What Could Have Been|What Could Hav-]] Oh My Word WHAT IS [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dm0Cz5Tsw6Y THIS!!!]
*** Yeah that's cool and everything, but it's only one song, the label won't ever let him do a full album with songs as good as-HOLY SHIT THERE'S A NEW [http://www.datpiff.com/Lupe-Fiasco-Friend-Of-The-People-I-Fight-Evil-mixtape.287406.html MIXTAPE!!!].
* After eight long years, [[Doctor Steel]] [https://archive.today/20110717083017/http://www.toysoldiersunite.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=12218 announced he is working on a new full-length album!]{{Dead link}}
* [[Rammstein (Music)|Rammstein]] hasn't performed in the United States in over ten years...wait, they're going to perform in ''Madison Square Garden''?! Where do I buy tickets? (The show sold out in [http://www.thegauntlet.com/article/307/20200/Rammstein-sells-out-Madison-Square-Garden-in-30-minutes.html thirty minutes], by the way)
** And that's going to have a DVD release? FUCK YEAH!
* Dammit, Sting... really? Lute music? Is this what you've come t-- Wait, why are you in a press conference with [[The Police|Stewart Copeland and Andy Summers?]] Do my ears deceive me? After over 20 years, The Police are burying the hatchet and going on tour? Heck yeah!
Line 32:
*** Roger Waters and his 2011 tour is great and all, but he can't really represent [[Pink Floyd]] by himse - hold on, who's that on top of the Wall? *gasp* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmauiLKFpuA DAVE GILMOUR AND ROGER WATERS TOGETHER AT LAST?!]
**** Which was only topped by Nick Mason joining them at [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TTHX6VsU2ZA&feature=related the end of the show]. According to Roger, it was "by a strange and happy coincidence".
* Blue Man Group's shows are amazing, but they really haven't done anything new in a while. Just the same schtick and songs with every sho- What's that you say? [http://3dguy.tv/national-geographic’s-blue-man-group-mind-blast-ready-for-imax®-3d/ There's going to be a Blue Man Group IMAX movie experience where they go inside an autistic person's brain and help bring out their creativity?]{{Dead link}} And it's going to feature the original performers?? And there's going to be new songs?? Mind: BLOWN!
* No [[Queens of the Stone Age]] music lately... or [[Foo Fighters (Music)|Foo Fighters]]. Wait... Josh Homme and Dave Grohl are in [[Them Crooked Vultures|a new band]], reuniting after 2003's ''Songs for the Deaf''? And on bass they have John Paul Jones from [[Led Zeppelin]]? American rock music has reached it's peak. Pack it in, boys.
** Similarly, the announcement of a new Foo Fighters album, which not only has Grohl's former bandmate Krist Novoselic in a song, but is produced by Butch Vig, who worked with [[Nirvana]] in ''Nevermind''...
* [[Helloween (Music)|Michael Kiske]] started [[Unisonic|a new project]]. It's going to be a fai... WHAT? [[Gamma Ray (Music)|KAI HANSEN]] HAS JOINED TO THE BAND? KISKE AND HANSEN TOGETHER AGAIN??? WHOAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! AWESOME!!!
* [[The Smashing Pumpkins (Music)|Billy Corgan]] has a [https://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=2078451280700&oid=7301722641 Major Announcement]. Oh, it's going to suck. Wait, a new full length album that's a part of the Teargarden Project!!! Re-issues of EVERY ALBUM WITH BONUS TRACKS!!!!! VINYL REISSUES AS WELL!!!!! A PHYSICAL RELEASE OF MACHINA II!!!! THE FINAL METRO SHOW IS GETTING A RELEASE AS WELL!! [[Memetic Mutation|MOTHER OF GOD!!!!]]
* [[Autopsy (Musicband)|Autopsy]] is reforming for the Maryland Deathfest? Ah, it's probably just a one shot performance. Wait, they're releasing a WHOLE NEW ALBUM? [[Your Head Asplode|Headsplosion]]
* So [[Rascal Flatts]] has moved from Lyric Street to Big Machine. So they're still working with Dann Huff, the same record producer who led them to whiny, overproduced power ballads. Wait, this "Why Wait" song is upbeat and catchy, and it's not overproduced for a change! Neither is "I Won't Let Go"!
* Filipino fans of Disney stars haven't got a single Disney star to come to their country to do at least a concert for one night or do promotions for their projects. Not even [[Hilary Duff]] AT ALL. Might as well give up on the hope- WAIT, [[Miley Cyrus|MILEY CYRUS]] IS COMING?!?! At last! Even though it's been a few months after her show was done in the US, at least she's coming to The Philippines! Can you say, [[Hannah Montana|SWEET NIBLETS?!]]
* The day in late 2003 that Shirley Manson of [[Garbage]] announced she'd thrown all her blonde hair products out and went back to being a red-head. Much of the band's [[Broken Base]] blamed her shaved blonde hair do for hijacking their third album and the personified it as the cause of it's commercial failure.
* Oh great, another KMFDM side project instead of a new album. Pfft. Yeah, whatev--WAIT. Tim Skold collaborating with KMFDM again? AHHH DON'T BELIEVE IT WAKE ME I'M DREAMING!
* [[Elton John]]'s 1980's comeback can be attributed to Elton collaborating full time with lyricist Bernie Taupin for the first time since 1976's ''Blue Moves'', and to Elton reuniting with guitarist Davey Johnstone, bassist Dee Murray and drummer Nigel Olsson, his classic 1970's backing band, for the first time since 1975's ''Captain Fantastic And The Brown Dirt Cowboy''. It helped that Elton's album, ''Too Low For Zero'' was a solid effort, with tracks like "I'm Still Standing" and "I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues" and entertaining music videos.
* [["Weird Al" Yankovic]]'s latest album, ''Alpocalypse''. Whoa, finally a new Weird Al album! It took a while, but finally we have a new polka medley - [[Captain Obvious|and not a crappily-recorded live version]], to boot! But then there was yet another ATFR moment, namely when, for the first time, there was ''a music video'' for a Polka Medley. As in, you know, not a fan-made one - no, an ''actual'', honest-to-God [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRJILK3NxSM&ob=av2n music video!] To quote the Wikipedia article for the album:
{{quote| ''"Yankovic intends to create music videos for every song on the album. At the time of the album's release, videos for all but two of the songs were included with the physical DVD and deluxe downloadable version of the album. A live-action video for "Perform This Way" was released a day prior to the release of the album, while a video for the polka medley, "Polka Face", was slated to be released in late July. It was finally released in late September 2011 on Comedy Central's Jokes.com.[5] The polka medley video, primarily animated but featuring some live-action takes, is the first time that Yankovic has created a video for his traditional polka medleys."''}}
** Not to mention he ''finally'' made a [[Lady Gaga]] spoof that reached over a million views within a week.
* [[Within Temptation]]'s new album? Great! Hopefully we don't have to wait another three... they already have another album idea?! That's supposed to be released next year?!?! AND THEY'RE MAKING AN UNFORGIVING MOVIE?!??!!?! Cue fandom squeals.
Line 50:
* [[Tim McGraw]] is finally leaving Curb Records, the label that's treated him (and its entire roster) like dirt for the past 10 years? Sweet!
** And LeAnn Rimes is leaving too? Also sweet!
* [[Miracle of Sound]] and [http://www.youtube.com/user/malufenix Malukah] will be collaborating on a project? [[Filk|FILK]] FANS REJOICE!
* The "[[The Cars|New Cars]]" are OK, and [[Todd Rundgren]] might be an interesting frontman, but he's no Ric Ocasek...hey, wait, all the surviving original members are reuniting?! With Ocasek?! And they're recording a [http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/Move_Like_This:Move Like This|new album]]?! ''And'' it sounds like [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fpJQWGA1O8s old-school Cars]? 'And'' they'll even do a short tour? Sign me up!
* It was the late '00s, and the reunions of British pop acts of the '80s were for a time omnipresent. OMD, Spandau Ballet and the like. When Ultravox was announcing their reunion, however, three things brought a little extra cheer among the fans:
** Warren Cann was back, after being unceremoniously sacked virtually straight after Live Aid;
** The tour was aesthetically centered around fan favourite album ''Rage in Eden'' as opposed to ''Vienna'', and the setlist reflected this;
** They opened the concerts with [[Epic Rocking|the seven-minute instrumental "Astradyne"]]. Bricks were shat in the audience.
* [[Yes (Music)|Yes]] announced they'd be recording a new album for the first time in ten years? Well, [[The Band Minus the Face|Jon Anderson isn't in the lineup]]--wait, Trevor Horn is producing? And Geoff Downes is back as the keyboardist? Sold.
