I shouldn't have made my post specific to young people and future fans. I'm sure there are plenty of Sonic Youth "lifers" who just haven't ever had a chance or opportunity to see them perform. That sucks. So allow me to adjust my statement: I hope SY reunites and performs so that ANYONE who wants to see them has at least another chance to.
That means a fucking world tour, probably 2+ years in length. Not something I'd expect them to do, but I still hope they do it.
I firmly believe that everyone has a right (like, a God given, inalienable right) to see their favorite band/artist live. We as a society should be tirelessly working to realize time travel with this goal in mind.
I'm not even kidding. I've always felt this way. Before I saw SY for the first time, I felt like half a man. Incomplete. It sucked. I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

Youīre right. But itīs little bit hard to believe they will make ever world tour. Because if I have correct understanding, they never been very popular outside US (after US maybe UK & south America?).
And like almost all the other old bands, I believe things will be never same as they were in eighties & nineties (I think they sounded live much different even in 2000 than earlier). But anyway I will be the first to buy ticket if they reunite and come even in the some near north countries! About their popularity in Finland, I donīt think I am lying badly if I say I am the biggest SY fan in Finland (sorry dasx if I hurt you).
