I don't find many of those!!!
Love most of the rest of your list as well, especially Jesus & Mary Chain, INXS, New Order, and Violent Femmes.
I'm not familiar with Editors or Doves but I LOVE Franz Ferdinand!!!
I also like Mumford & Sons, for a more "recent" band.
Thanks, I'm super excited about Pet Shop Boys because they're one of the few bands from my favorites that I've never seen.

Yes. Love Echo. Saw 'em in '87 w/ New Order and wish I could go back in time.

You might be surprised! Ran into a guy well into his 70s at a Go-Go's show once.

I don't think I got any of the bands in the 90s. I am just too old.

Until I read this thread I would not have been able to name a single song from either band.
