After Five Years, No Doubt Reunites Today
Fri., May. 1, 2009 8:35 AM PDT by Jennifer Cady
No Doubt reunited this morning for their first live performance in five years on the Today show. Gwen Stefani was back to her funky No Doubt hair minus the pink streaks and braces (ah, remember those days?) while bassist Tony Kanal and guitarist Tom Dumont did the ol' chorus jumping thing. It was just like old times.
Gwen may blame herself—"I was in postbaby mode,” she told Matt Lauer—for taking so long to get the band back together, but Tony says there was more to it than that.
"We got in studio and started writing and realized something was missing. We haven’t played for five years. So we just wanted to get out there again and play and reconnect with ourselves, reconnect with all the people who supported us for so long."
Fortunately, they left out their latest track "Stand and Deliver" in their morning show set and opted for their hits "Spiderwebs," "Don't Speak" and "It's My Life."
The band gets their nontelevised reunion going this Sunday at the Bamboozle Festival in New Jersey.
