Also, Def Leppard is still releasing albums? impressed https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Def_Leppard_(album) (also, cool to have your 11th studio album be your eponymous one)

Dream Theater did the same thing for their twelfth album: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dream_Theater_(album)

Maybe naming things is also one of the hardest problems in rock 'n roll?

You wouldn't believe how many bands from the eighties/nineties are still around - out of the spotlight, some of them not with the original lineup, but still there for their faithful fans.

Except for R.E.M. unfortunately, who disbanded in 2011...

R.E.M. always walked their own path. Said as someone born and raised in Athens. ;-)

I had the luck to be at their induction into the GA Music Hall of Fame, by none other than Max Cleland.

Even though I’m always in evil mode when in eMacs, I still want that Vim Hater logo.
