Do you think you could Manage the Bunnymen Better

Do you Think you have it to make them more popular in a "Product Sense" or "Cult Sense"

Do You think you could market the Bunnymen Better.

Although Mac is percieved as being the essence of the Bunnymen he is also thier achellies heel.

It's really about time you got over it KOK............

Management never gave you the backstage pass you craved, I know you felt hurt and abandoned by this after all you did lend them some pics....... It's really about time you moved on and leave the disappointment behind.......

Maybe I could suggest that you contact New Model Army and offer to lend them some of their press cuttings if the let you hang out with them discussing clogs.......

Just a suggestion................?

ha ha. you get funnier by the day KOK. but anyways, to pitch in. I htink Mac is (mainly) the manager and the management do the donkey work in pulling stuff together, or in peasey's case, lighting his ciggies, and dont steer the bunnymen cart through the mire of the modern day music industry. At least not in the way some managers do. So i think your question is misplaced. Plus they are his mates of old n'est pas? So nobody could do that.

Plainly the answer to the three questions above is no. I don't think anybody could do it any better now as the management/Mac appear to be doing physically as much as they can this time round - other than taking over worldwide television and broadcasting subliminal hypnotic messages telling the population to love the Bunnymen, or building a time machine and kidnapping the 1980s-version band and bringing them to the here and now. Pointless poll, although I think that I have some great TV sci-fi show ideas there.

What does it matter, the Bunnymen are obviously a commercial dead duck.

Why do you always bring that up

It seems to me you have more of a problem with it than I do

I don't really give a crap any more, never have really.

I told all when asked why I had a problem with the managment.

Sure I was pissed off at the time, But hey life is too short to hold gruges.

In a inverse way Its you who seem more affected

However the management and the Bunnymen Product is the worst I have ever encountered in any industry. They really do them selves no favours

TELL ME WHAT HAVE THEY ACHIEVED.

Look.

I know I post shit, You Know it. they know it , we all know it.

At the end of the day this is a bit of fun, well it is suposed to be.

I and my wife and kids Chuckle loudly at how involved and emotional some people get.

In fact they even goad me in to making purile posts just to see the reaction they get.

Yes call me what you like,

Its only words and opinions based on your stance and from your side of the bridge.

Those who have met me will tell you I'm nothing like this in real life.

This is a vertual world, with vertual personalites.

Its purly escapism

Some you like some you don't. But it takes all sorts to make aworld

Yes I follow New Model Army

But it amuses me at how infurated you can get when you don't even know me

Some people remind me of those who watch sex on tv and then complain about them after watching thwm.

In short you already know the type of post I make yet you still read and respond.

And now you've got me at it

How do you know I'm not

Its even funnyer that I post under two names here and on BOF

Using different accounts

Two Personas and two different reations

At the end of the day were all a bit Geeky to be here in cyberspace in the first place

well, jimbo can obviously answer for himself, but thats the impression you always give. seems to be a common feature of your topics - the management.

by **King Of Kings** » Wed Oct 28, 2009 3:17 pm

I give up

I've even stopped finding this banter amusing

by **Lancashire Fusileer** » Wed Oct 28, 2009 4:33 pm

manage them? what a thought.

by **moses (2)** » Wed Oct 28, 2009 4:49 pm

if i thought I could get at least 10 years out if it and a decent wage I would give it a shot but I can tell you managing a band these days is very very hard

you know if the bunnymwen where again early 20's then maybe managing them would be a hoot but you are talking of guys in their 50s now and touring at that age is torture

fuck me I got a flight to the US last year and it nearly killed me

Simply the majority of your posts consist of you slagging of the management, also your criticism of the management really gathered pace when you never got your golden pass for lending them your press cuttings...............

Maybe coincidence............... :rolleyes:
