NLF top five after 1997 for sure but I don' see it all time five.
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

NLF is barely even the Bunnymen as far as I'm concerned. It's closer to Oasis or Verve. A band tryin' a little too hard to keep up with what's hot at the time.

Pix from SF

Postby paigekparsons » Sat May 21, 2011 11:06 pm

Have to agree the final songs from HUH were the highlight. Mac was really in fine form and completely at ease. Almost all of my best shots came from that three song window. Review up soon, but here's a link to the pix in the meantime.

Strange..... it has always gone down really well at the gigs I have been too UK and USA..

I have to admit though that I would struggle to come up with a top five Bunnymen song list coz it could change at any given time.... HUH is my favourite album though
by any band ever.

I doubt there is much chance of them being caught in a Bunnymen audience photo.

I think those two were on the upper deck--I remember seeing them and being tempted to yell, "Get a room!"
