NOISE ROCK REUNION FANTASY CAMP

OK, I’ll admit that I did a cartoonish double take over my Thanksgiving leftovers when I read that THE JESUS LIZARD ARE REUNITING “for a very limited series of live dates in 2009,” according to the band’s former label Touch & Go, which will also be reissuing four classic albums from the group. This news bodes well for noise rock enthusiasts following a robust year of notable reunions (Bailter Space, Killdozer!) and continues to see more such gigs this month from the likes of:

Boss Hog
– December 17, Bowery Ballroom (NYC)

Butthole Surfers
– December 12, Warsaw (NYC)
– December 30-31, The Fillmore (San Francisco)

Lubricated Goat
– December 18, Europa (NYC)

I’m so tickled pink that I’m contemplating tickling my own pink. So, uhh, when’s Fugazi getting back together?
