Good old BOF

General discussion about the band, live shows, its recordings or bootlegs, etc. You can buy, sell or trade here. You can even post eBay links. If it's about the Bunnymen, it goes here.

Maybe we need a poll because this is important.


Where's KOK when you need him?

So they're only on facebook now? Another exclusionary tactic. Makes sense.

The official site is there but there is no forum or a way to interact. A lot of bands and companies, etc seem to be going that route these days but I know many many people who don't have Facebook accounts.

....and Twitter but I don't think I am allowed to have a Twiiter account at my advanced age

Aren't you too old to be a webmaster as well?
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

Any of those covers were still better than Proxy

I imagine that was AFTER the suggestion that everyone pull up a chair and vote for the "worse" one. Besides why is permission needed? As they pointed out the videos are on a public site called youtube and are fair game...and I quote:

Guys please remember that the videos are posted on a public video channel called YouTube. If they don't want people to view the videos they have the option to make it private, Also don't forget they are covering our songs.
The Bunnymen have been going for over 30yrs and one reason is humour. Ian & Will have a shockingly sharp sense of humour.
Please don't loose sense of reality.

Methinks BOFF (Bunnymen Official Fuck Face) should have done that in the first place, rather than done it under the guise of using it to take the piss. They should also include a few proper band covers to flatter themselves, including the awful Coldplay and Seal covers.
