How about some review from the USA







Come back home you lot and do some UK dates and the Xmas show.

Seems like you have abandoned your UK Fan base, chasing the American dream

I always find it strange, you still only really play your 80's discography.

those sound quite good. Perhaps we ought to do a count up of the number of times someone on this forum has posed those questions KOK. Beats me, as they say. Those couple they do from meteorites are pretty good live,

If you had walked into Stage AE cold, you could have thought this was a young, edgy band.

I used to have family in Missouri. Hot, muggy, oppressive. Even as a young lad I struggled with the heat.

Oh and fuck the Violent Femmes. On facebook they keep posting articles praising them and trashing the Bunnymen. They're catalog is inconsequential compared to the Bunnymen. One decent album and a Burger King commercial. Well done fuckers.
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

Costa Mesa is the worst.

How about some different songs in the set list for a change? I love the Bunnymen, always will but I do feel it would be nice to hear some different songs, even a new one!

Was thinking about this the other day (on account I have no life) and Bernard from New Order, in his mighty tome...... nope can't remember what ts called, chapter and verse maybe - he explains why they do the same thing. After years of really hit and miss gigs doing just what they fancied they started picking the ones that always get the punters going and then just mix a few new ones (new ones? really) and a few odd balls that they fancy to keep the whining internet blokes happy - though as we know that never works.
