1) There's usually one living member of the actual band
2) The band is touring again because they suck and the only way they can make money as musicians is in the hopes that people will come see them based on their past greatness.
3) These bands feel obliged to regale you with their "new" music, which invariably sucks. Remember, they haven't been successful in 25 years.

So, just remember: Friends don't let friends go see washed-up, over-the-hill bands (unless they're the Grateful Dead )
Sage advice.
Also avoid one hit wonder bands playing at Indian Casinos. Brutal...
