These guys are Legend! with all the tools we have today no one can make music like it was made in the 70s, 80s..these guys had to endure trying to make it in the business competing with many many great bands, jamming in the garage or anywhere is still the best receipt to create great music, original sounds, etc. God bless The B-52`s, one of the greatest of all time and I`m so greatfull to have grown up around that time.

[tommybonachita]

They belong in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame...it's ridiculous that they aren't.

[flyingo]

I could sit and listen to these guys talk about their history and experiences for days on end. The B52s basically changed my life for the better back in the late 70s & 80s.

I won Wild Planet at a grade 7 dance competition in 1982. That was my introduction to the B52s . Been a fan ever since !!

[briedah]

I recall when I first heard Rock Lobster on the radio I was like instantly drawn into the new wave…I’m still surfing along at 67 years old still glad I got to experience all the bands of the 70s and 80s ❤ B52s saved every party I ever had!

THe B52's 1st album came out 45 years ago today- July 6th.. which happens to be my birthday.. i bought that album for my birthday on that day.. that album has a particular sentimental value for me needless to say...its also wonderful and original

[skyraider]

My daughter now 47 and I still love to rock out to LOVE SHACK like we did while traveling back and forth to college.

[jimburchett]

if you would have told me in 1978 when i first heard them that 46 years later i'd still be listening, i would have said you're crazy. so weird became so fun so fast. decades of joy.

I first heard Quiche Lorraine on the Dr Demento show in 1981, been a fan ever since. The soundtrack of my youth.

Wonderful band and still looking great
Wild Planet is brilliant

[Smylexxia]

So pleased to see that these guys are still all comfortable with one another. A brilliant, unique band with such a distinctive sound.

[broadcastdepth]

Thanks to all of you guys in the band and who produced them, you were a HUGE part of our lives, Growing up in Santa Barbara, We had our fingers on the pulse of Athens and watched you guys play in aTV STUDIO in Atlanta or something like that, and now, in 2024 I'm here playing music around Atlanta praying I run into you guys in the band sometime so I can thank you in person. again, you have been part of my life (our life) since 79' We love you soooo much.

[fatbelly]

They are all really lovely people and it's clear they really like each other

[Willysaholic]

Saw them in the early 80’s in SF. One of the greatest bands ever!

[SageOftheSubway]

Oh, I still have a MAJOR crush on Kate Pierson!

[RobsRocketTimes]

Kate, can't say enough, she was my favorite. Great vocals and voice still listening to her now.

[bryanfriend]

I first came on board as a fan when I heard the Whammy album. The previous few years, I had been gravitating toward the New Wave and College Radio movement.
While serving in the Army in rhe mid80's, one of the guys in my platoon asked if I liked Southern Rock. I responded:
"Yeah, I love the B-52's and R.E.M!"
Thanks for posting, this was a blast!

[ManDom]

NO ONE, NO BAND, EVER. Will be the same as the B52. Super underrated band. But I'm glad they are here!

[DavidMartins]

I love these people. What they did was truly special.

[elfari]

I saw them at the Bayou club in D.C. in 1979. We all knew we were listening to the the real deal-so much fun! At the break, Fred came up to me and asked me where I got the bowling shirt I was wearing. I gave them a list of local thrift stores. They invited me and my friends to a round of beers. Thanks again!!
