The Cars to reunite?
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 28 July 2010
Rumours that all the surviving members of The Cars are planning to reform have been doing the rounds after a picture of them playing together in a studio was posted to their Facebook page two weeks ago.
The photograph shows guitarist and vocalist Ric Ocasek, lead guitarist Elliot Easton, keyboard player Greg Hawkes and drummer David Robinson (who retired from music after the band’s split in 1988 and opened a restaurant) with bassist Greg Hawkes standing in for Benjamin Orr, who died from pancreatic cancer in 2000.
Asked if rumours of a reunion were true last week, Hawkes told the Boston Globe: “I hate to be vague, but I really can’t say. It’s a crazy world”.
