Well, it's only been 8 years since the last Pavement release? Allow for general time inflation, and I wouldn't call this a "reunion" as much as just Scott and Steve needing a break from each other for a while.

Anyway, this is great news, especially boding well for (crossing fingers) deluxe reissues of Brighten The Corners and Terror Twilight

Maybe they could get a decent drummer this time?

If they come back with Gary Young, I'd offer my first born.

Malkmus, when asked about it in interviews, has never ruled out the possibility of a reunion. Done right, they could join Mission of Burma in the very ltd. category of Reunions That Aren't Just For Nostalgia's Sake or A Cash Grab.

Right now, Disco Inferno is the ONLY band whose reuniting would make me stand up and take notice.

Oh, if only those L.A. Guns boys could work it all out, all would be right in the world.

The Replacements. Even sans chemical/alcohol dependency and Bob.

Counting Ibold's appearance with Sonic Youth, they pulled off 3/5 of a reunion at Pitchfork last summer.

If Pavement can (maybe, just maybe) do it, maybe that'll convince Talking Heads to iron-out their differences (maybe, just maybe plese)?

*Commence parade of other bands that people want to see reunite*

I await the 11 minute "Zurich is Stained."

No comeback matters to me since Joe Strummer died. If the Clash couldn't make the comeback tour I couldn't care less about lesser bands.
