In a recent interview with Alternative Press, Classics of Love frontman Jesse Michaels addresses the question of a possible reunion of his famed band Operation Ivy:
"Operation Ivy had kind of an unblemished record, as far as staying underground goes. It's not because we were super-super-uptight about anything; it's because we were a garage band. We didn't get big till after we broke up. It feels to me that it would be kind of a shame to take that very pure thing and subject it to booking agents, cuts at the door for merchandise and all that bullshit that goes along with being in a bigger band.



While it's tempting-I'm not exactly made of money; I'm doing okay, butÂ… [Laughs.] Money is a nice thing, and I know a lot of people would enjoy it, so while it's tempting, I think it's a little more classy to leave it alone. That being said, I wouldn't completely rule it out, but the short answer is no, there won't be a reunion. It's very unlikely there will be a reunion, because it would be in poor taste. I'm very happy that people are still interested in that music and that it still has an appeal to younger kids."
