We've all been wondering, "Are there any bands left who haven't reunited?"

Unfortunately, there's one we all forgot.From today's edition of the English newspaper The Independent:"Spandau Ballet are poised to reform after their former singer, Tony Hadley, signalled he was ready to bury the hatchet following a bitter break-up. "The Eighties band had a spectacular fall-out which ended in the High Court. Hadley, Steve Norman and John Keeble sued Gary Kemp for a £1m share of the songwriting royalties but lost. Kemp reportedly approached Hadley about a reunion for Live8 in 2005 but was turned down."Now Hadley says he is prepared to put the past behind him. Discussing his hopes for a reunion on Virgin Radio, he said: 'There'll have to be an awful lot of things remedied because things did get personal and it went a bit too far. The next window of opportunity that I see would be our 30th anniversary, in about four years' time.'"The band had their first hit with To Cut A Long Story Short in 1980. Their other hits include True, Gold and Through The Barricades. Their last top 40 single was How Many Lies, in 1987."The brothers Gary and Martin Kemp went on to become actors with starring roles in The Krays. Martin Kemp has said he would welcome a reunion. 'I'm sure that ... after 15 minutes of being in a room together we'd forget about everything and we'd be laughing at the same stupid jokes we were laughing at when we were 17.' " Well, we asked for it, didn't we?
