    i talked to the alexes at the chicago gaslight show last time around. they said no plans to do anything new with gaslight unfortunately. they said that they all, all 5 of them, feel that gaslight has said everything it can say and anything else would be redundant. i get that, but i also wish they would do something someday. i was hoping for an american slang anniversary tour but fallon shot that down last week.
    I respect that they’re staying true if they feel its run its course.  

    It was a fun time.  So cool to get into that band.  I remember my wife and i driving ten hours just to see them about a decade ago.  They played for 45 minutes but it was worth it. 
    No problem if they feel they don't have any new songs in them. But I don't think that should mean that they shouldn't dust off the old songs and play some shows for fun from time to time. 
    I haven't really kept up to date on TGA after the break up. I have got Brian's solo albums, and whilst I don't mind them, they are just average to me. For me, I can't hear the passion in his solo songs that TGA albums were full of.

    Hoping they can get back together at some stage, but Brian has always seemed so up and down with his directions and choices, only he knows where he's going
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me

    New PJ album and a new BF album on the same day? IF they actually arrive on the release day, that's gonna be a good one.
    1991- Hollywood Palladium, California with Temple of the Dog, Soundgarden, and Alice in Chains -RIP Magazine Show Oct. 6th
    1992- Lollapalooza, Irvine, California
    Nothing since then. I suck.
    2016- Fenway Park, Boston - Both glorious nights

    Read an interview with BF the other day and it sounds like the whole album is going to be soft ballads with nothing too upbeat.  I don't mind ballads but surprised the whole album is going to be like that....

    If you enjoy his solo material, yes. If you only enjoy gaslight tunes, may be not...

    Something is definitely going on with them.  Their twitter and instagram accounts both just posted this....

    Their website is the same way.  Oh boy!  Would absolutely love another tour!!!

    yeah their instagram history is completely deleted except for this maroon photo.

    someone said "probably announcing some sink or swim 15 year anniversary t shirts" lol

    Exciting for sure, but I just have a hard time believing that they'd do anything more than a quick money grab like a few festivals or short tour like for 59 Sound. I can't see them ever recording again or doing a full tour. I'd love to be wrong.

    Seems like a lot of effort for just new merch or a vinyl re-issue.  Definitely wouldn't expect any new music but maybe a summer tour???  This year is 15 years since Sink or Swim and 10 years since Handwritten.

    Really hoping for a tour. New music would be awesome but don’t see it happening.

    I would take that.

    I love these guys but that 59 Sound show a few years ago was not up to snuff. Boston at least. They just plowed through a bunch of material.
