I can't remember the year exactly, but I know it was a show at The World in Tinley Park, IL

Maybe my old guy memory is getting fuzzy

When did Cruise tour with the band as Cindy's fill-in? I've seen them a few times over the decades, so it's entirely possible I have my dates flipped. I know I saw them once with Cruise, and it just didn't seem right. I swear it was the Time Capsule tour, but I may be wrong. Not wrong about being there, but wrong about when the Cruise tour was.

With the lack of new material (save those two new tracks on Time Capsule) for years and years, I had just sort of assumed Cindy was gone for good. So even though I'm a little behind, I still welcome her return...

Yes.

I love this band. And even thought I've been a huge huge fan since day one, I only first saw them live in '89 on "Cosmic Thing" tour. Since then, I've lost count how many times I've seen them. That said, they have to be the laziest band I've ever known of. Sure, they've toured almost every year, but their excuse for not doing an album since 1992 (!!!) was that they all didn't live in the same city anymore and various side projects is a lame one at best. Come on guys, 15 years?? When I first heard "Debbie", I knew they hadn't lost their creative touch. Guess some bands/artists are fine with just touring and not attempting to do anything new. So I'm very excited about the upcoming album.

I love the song "Debbie". I believe it's an Ode to Debbie Harry.

To hold you over until the new album, listen to the Junior Senior song with Kate and Cindy on vocals. Really catchy tune.
