They have a history of lowering "them selfs" that includes playing with the Spice Girls, resigning "them selfs" to playing the oldies circuit (with the same setlist since God knows when) and I'm pretty sure I read somewhere they played a wedding. All of which is perfectly fine but please spare us the "Bunnymen would never lower them selfs to play such a joke tour" crap cause if the money is right it could definitely happen. Then we'll be getting a newsletter exhalting the 2009 Regeneration Tour and the mass audience the Bunnymen will be reaching.
And to be so short with a fan who is obviously just excited about the band is a dick move.
Thank you for explaining, BF b/c seriously, I didn't understand! lol
As for the band playing, 2009 is a long way off but, I went to the 2008 gig of this & yes, I felt old but, the bands ROCKED. Plus, it wasn't all pointless like we were all poseurs or anything. We just were all in the same age bracket. Plus, on a good note, it would bring fans of all ages together.
AND>>>>>>YES, they sold items there, mostly old LP's & t-shirts AND.....they sold quite a few that night!! So, if the band wants to regenerate as the name states & make more $$$ then, maybe they'll do it.
However, life HAS WENT ON....& I hope things will remain upward in the future, w/ The Fountain coming out & these next 3 major-city gigs, the last thing the band needs is crap.
Plus, I wasn't talking trash either in my thoughts here regarding why the person posted what they did on the post. I just thought I would post it b/c I didn't see it on the board, it related to the band & I wondered personally whether or not the band might even consider it.
Finally, I know the management/Peter/whomever DOES hard work to keep things active, up-to-date & highlighted I mean, I have no time to do something like that so, I give them much credit.
People DO change, improve & develop positively!!! :)
