A couple of Bunnymen-related stories

[the ghost of guitarplayer]

As there seems to be a distinct lack of news or new music these days regarding the Bunnymen, other than the usual Facebook and Twitter "Hey everyone" stuff here's a picture or an old youtube video, full entirety gigs - other than Will's eagerly awaited album - couple of things just found:

Parr Street Studios is up for sale. A mere snip at three million quid.

And this one is particularly nice, New York band Raven & Chimes have done a little cover of Ocean Rain.

wow, even ghosties getting sentimental. come on lads, arse into gear. oh no, alien concept. Will has said that when the summer's over and this little group of gigs oover they're going in the studio. so only a couple of years and we might have that new ep..... and we can all slag it off.

Not really sentimental as such FC. Thought the cover version is pretty cool, especially with the female vocalist, and chucked in the Parr Street Studio in for extra "fun".

I won't be going to their gigs anymore, but I am intrigued as to what Will's forthcoming album will sound like as he seems the more creative chap of the two, and pondering whether Mac gets his arse into gear and actually produces a "Bunnymen" album or ep that is a surprise and doesn't force you to repeatedly bang your head against a brick wall, as I was doing a few years back, and it hurt.
