Today in Bunnymen History April 26th, a sad day indeed

Today is the 20th anniversary of the last time the original line-up with Pete and Les performed which was the same day Ian's father died.

Sad indeed.

That original line up was the best rock band on the planet, no-one else has even come close - before or since.

RIP Pete - sadly missed
Mr. Brian, I find that offensive.

Scouser's inability to se others' point of view is rather grating.

I remember being out and seeing on MTV news that Pete had died - like June 15, 1989?
I was crushed. And it did not mean a thing to the folks around me.

His drums were as much the sound as Will's guitar.
