Miss Fahey's Back, Banana Bitches!

Despite all the '80s nostalgia and reunion tours going on, I'm still kind of in shock -- and thrilled! -- that Siobhan Fahey has reunited with Keren Woodward and Sara Dallin for a U.K. tour planned for this fall. (Apparently even Shakespear's moodiest sister isn't above a little throwback fun!) My dirty little secret is that I didn't go see Bananarama when I had the chance on their first World Tour back in 1989 partly because I was interning on Capitol Hill at the time and was flat broke, and partly because I wasn't particularly thrilled that my favorite Rama had left the band. (Jacquie O'Sullivan stepped into her Venus catsuit.) I eventually saw Keren and Sara at the Hard Rock Cafe in Times Square, but I may just have to make a second trip across the pond this fall to see the original line-up on tour for the first time ever!

Keren, Sara and some fourth banana ...
