Punk Dinosaurs on the road again

It's summer (almost) which means that various punk and such figures of the misty past will be staggering out of the swamps to stalk the earth again. So far we have on the road; The New York Dolls (all two of 'em), The Stooges (with James Williamson) , X (full lineup), PIL, The Murder City Devils, The Misfits (Jerry Only living up to his name), The Diodes, Johnny and The G Rays, The Buzzcocks, The Zeros, The 222's, Porcelain Forehead, Mudhoney, Hole, The Ripchordz, New Bomb Turks, The Specials, The Blues Explosion, Killing Joke, GBH, The Guana Batz, The Avengers, The Business, Alice in Chains, Gang of Four, Killing Joke, Arson plus Modern English, The Psychedelic Furs, The Grapes of Wrath and Peter Murphy and while we're at it Iron Maiden, Faster Pussycat and The L.A. Guns. Last year even brought us the Sonics.
In the studio; Danzig, Green Day, Social Distortion, Naked Raygun, Pearl Jam.
Plus there is supposed to be some kind of reunion for Refused and The Smashing Pumpkins.
Obviously some of these are more welcome than others.
