This week in reunions: Sublime!

* The reunited Sublime (billed as "Sublime with Rome" because, you know, Bradley Nowell is still dead) will be playing Lollapalooza Chile April 3 and several other festivals in South America this spring. Plus, they're in the studio working on an album. Check out the progress (recommended if you were into the Long Beach Dub All-Stars) here.

* It's certainly not happening anytime soon, but Liam Gallagher is no longer saying "never" to an Oasis reunion. Beady Eye sales figures?

* The Lilith Fair gang, who reunited last year for a tour that did not sell many tickets, won't be doing it again this summer. Sarah McLachlan says Lilith Fair is "done."

This week in reunions... Soundgarden! Hole! Lilith Fair!

* As announced on Twitter by Chris Cornell, Soundgarden have returned after 12 years away, Audioslave, and that God-awful Cornell solo album with Timbaland. No word on what the reunion entails yet, but expect a tour of some kind. If you go here, you can enter your e-mail address and then watch an old music video.

* Despite the fact that she just lost custody of her daughter, Courtney Love is forging ahead with the Hole reunion-that-doesn't-include-any-original-members-except-maybe-the-drummer. Go here and you can hear about 10 seconds of instrumental music from the forthcoming Nobody's Daughter. Love has also taken to Twitter again, and three Hole dates in Europe have been announced for February.

* Despite some last-minute legal threats from Bradley Nowell's family, the Sublime reunion actually happened. Spinner says about 15,000 were in attendance for the big show featuring new vocalist Rome Ramirez, who was only 8 years old when Sublime's self-titled album came out. The show was officially advertised as a Sublime "celebration," so maybe that's how they'll get around the proposed lawsuits. Or the surviving members of Sublime could take the Nowell family's advice and just reunite the Long Beach Dub All-Stars.

* OMG, ladies... Lilith Fair IS BACK! Here's the lineup so far.
