NO NO NO The Fountrain is brilliant, Tramlines -= they were brilliant. The new Crocs / HUH tour will be brilliant. The Bunnymen are brilliant.

YES YES YES...

Lindsey Lohan manages to bring people into her little world with her tweets, as do other people in bands, why not the Bunnymen?

maybe its an age thing then. but then she's been in a couple of high profile films, become a lesbian and currently in the slammer. that may be more of an attraction than a twitter account. we need to get mac to cooperate on a sex change, a movie career, an age reduction and an aversion to computers, and then we can compare. I imagine he could manage the wild child part.

I think people have said before, he should be responsible for the artwork for the next Bunnymen album. They could flog them with a limited edition print of the cover as a freebie

wasn't he responsible for the artwork on flowers? in a choosing kind of way and most people seem to hate that. I think you need to register copyright or something on your idea of giving a prit away with the album, after all we'd all have to buy loads wouldn't we. but then have you seen how much he charges normally? it ought t be the other way round. free cd with a limited edition print.

But really, I can't believe Peter Allen quit.

maybe he's just a got a new job. maybe the new PR blokes want total control of this crazy rocknroll juggernaut, eyes on the millions they are about to make....

first is more likely i think.

I'd go for a limited edition print with a free CD. At least if the music is shit again, we'd have the print to savour.

I don't think you have to register any copyright given that Will is part of the Bunnymen and the free print idea would just be a poster-size reproduction of the album cover (self-released by the band again), which he would design. He wouldn't charge as he'd be doing it for a band that he is supposed to be part of. I don't know about the Flowers artwork, but that is not really what I had in mind. Funny cover but not one you'd want framed and hanging on your wall.

hey gp. youre being so specific with your design ideas, and we know peasey is a lurker so I suggest you get it on paper, otherwise you'll never secure your percentage of this crazy rocknroll juggernaut. trust me.

I have had many an idea for their crazy rocknroll juggernaut, so has probably a lot of people over the years, but they appear to have their fingers in their ears while singing "la la la" at the same time. Next time though I'll © every idea, just in case.

That is also the next single, btw.

Flowers artwork was from a book, "Wisconsin Death Trip". The photo was chosen by Will. They had a guy who works across the hall at Parr Street colorize the photo. Same guy did the Live In Liverpool artwork and a calendar they put out that year.

[Dave Smith]

John Squire gave away a print with a Stone Roses 12 inch.Pretty good it was to.Much better than his singing after the band split.

I thought the next single was entitled "do do do do".

As in the Italian lounge song performed by the Muppets--

Ma nah ma nah, do do do do...

"Peasy is a lurker" sounds like the title of a song by an 80s post-punk outfit...

Peasy likes to lurk
Peasy is a jerk
Really, what a Birk

Peasy brings me alcohol
There are no ifs at all

I give up. What a crap song it would be.
