										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This thread startin’ business is all complicated &amp; shit…</p>
<p>Everybody read the Spin article, right?  All of a sudden Tommy has done a 180, &amp; it seems the fabled reunion isn&#8217;t so much a fairy tale but a possibility.</p>
<p>I would never fault anyone for a pay check.  &amp; If it happens, I’ll go, probably on more than one occasion.  Still, I can’t help being turned off by the idea.  The Mats have been many things over the years, but an oldies act sure-as-shit ain’t one of ‘em.</p>
<p>&amp; I’m sorry, fuck precedence, it’s just not the Mats without Christopher Mars behind the kit.  If the man don’t wanna play, the man don’t wanna play.</p>
<p>However, if Paul &amp; Tommy went into the studio/basement together &amp; cut a new record…Then decided to tour in support…Now, that’s something I could get behind.  I could care less what the called themselves. Y’know they’re gonna bust out all the oldies, but the new material changes everything.</p>
<p>Even more than that, between Paul &amp; Tommy, I think there’s real potential for a fantastic album.  &amp; I  would love to hear it.</p>
<p>Curious about everyone’s opinion in regards to a Mats reunion.  &amp; Let’s hear a little noise regarding a Paul &amp; Tommy record.</p>
<p>Side Note:  Lately whenever there are rumors of a  Mats reunion, the Pixies are inevitably mentioned.  I just watched “Loud, Quiet, Loud” &amp; the Pixies are the most un-fun band in the world.   <em>Sesh</em>, what’s the fucking point?</p>
