Avril Lavigne, continued on under the name Avril Lavigne even after the original singer, Avril Lavigne, had sadly died.

[Gucci Piggy]

BearFur will not continue as BearFur when I die.

[henry bear]

The Stone Roses kept going despite original singer, Ian Brown, repeatedly dying on his arse.

No mention of Pink Floyd here yet?

The mere mention of Pink Floyd makes me wish Russy would return to tell us all how they wanted to play in 08 and Eavis denied a dying man’s dream...

Come back Russy!

What happened to him, did he bid us all farewell or just vanish?

[Mouseboy11]

I think he's still around just doesn't post much these days. I miss his irrational/rational hatred of most things Dave Grohl

Reckon I've just given out my 2nd ever up vote.

Nothing will beat the current New Order situation. 3 of the original members currently touring and releasing music under the New Order moniker. They have to licence the name from the original holding company.

The ex  bass player from New Order is going round touring entire albums of both New Order and their previous incarnation of Joy Division. Best part is he gets someone in Australia to make the synth parts and backing tracks, gets someone else to sing lyrics he did not write and gets someone else to play his bass parts.

So there are 2 bands going about doing the material of two separate bands, each with out the original members.

Could only be the members of New Order.

The thousand page hysteria of 2015 was one of this forum's defining moments.
