How could you forget the ill-fated Guns n'Roses comeback minus Slash? Possibly the worst mistake in the history of music.

You missed out the ludicrous Middle of the Road, who had a hit with 1971's 'Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep' and reunited to trawl the European revival circuit in the late Nineties. Awful enough first time round.

by email What about the Blondie reunion in 1998? This was seriously ill-advised on many levels but particularly for Debbie Harry's insistence on dancing like your auntie at a wedding.

by email There is nothing offensive about the selections for worst reunions, including Doors of the 21st Century (OMM7). But I disagree with the description of the original Doors as 'awful to begin with'. Their behaviour and pretensions were overblown but they put out a good deal of material that retains vitality more than 30 years later.
