Kajagoogoo - Band Reunited

OK, who else watched? I've enjoyed every single one of these shows so far, and they sounded GREAT.

Off all the bands featured on Bands Reunited, then along with Flock Of Seagulls sounded the best. They were also the best looking after all those years! (Those chicks from Klymaxx looked fat and ugly, man!)

I would've enjoyed the 'Frankie' reunion most, had it happened.

As it is, Kajagoogoo takes a definite second. I thought considering all the Limahl could have been bitter about, he was the epitome of class and showed a wonderful heart for the fans to do this.

I just wish that Holly Johnson would have been of a similar mindset...

i agree, they DEFINITELY looked the best of all the bands, and they sounded great too.


My favorite episode so far has to be Romeo Void, though. IT was just so cool seeing them back together, and Debora just rocks my world!

it's a TV series on VH-1 where they (try to) convince bands to get together for a 1 night only show. So unfortunately they are not touring (as far as i know. i wish they would, i also would definitely pay to see them)

I am REALLY enjoying this series and especially this Kajagoogoo episode. The guys looked and sounded fantastic.

I wouldn't be surprised if Kajagoogoo do get back together and tour sometime as a result of VH1 doing this show and bringing them all together once again. It was clear how happy they were to perform together again and to be moving forward in terms of mending fences and their personal issues.

As mentioned above, Limahl was total class (well really, all the guys were..) and I thought it was sweet how emotional he got, tearing up like he did.

Duran Duran were the original mentor's of Kajagoogoo and they're touring the UK this year. Wouldnt surprise me to see Kajagoogoo in a support slot.

Oh yeah, I did catch this one. And they sounded great after all these years, especially considering that they haven't played together in 20 years.

And I'm so glad that we got to hear them play "Hang on Now". I love that song. It's one of my favorite New Wave ballads ever!

I know Nick Rhodes produced Kajagoogoo's Too Shy, but I didn't know their relationship went any deeper than that.

I believe that Nick Rhodes initiated the contact w/ the record company that eventually landed them their record deal... but i could be wrong about that.

Ahhh, cool. I did not know that! biggrin Hmmm. That was their first single so I guess it's possible! I just read their bio on their website and they only mentioned that Nick produced the single.
