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.

Speaking of Gordon, how camp is his style? All that arm twirling and hip swinging. Not good.


Mac was/is brilliant but...weird.His whole family was there.Ex-Lorraine,Mimi and the ahem,wag/model Candy.Who I saw with a rather attractive female mate as well.Dirty old men of the world...unite and take over....

He just seem to lose it onstage.Some of the people he was ripping into were probably long term hardcore fans-you cant have a go at a fan for her laugh.She probably went home heartbroken that her hero had berated her.

Let's not gloss over the model/daughter and her attractive female friend just yet Dave.
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

I hope that isn't the case for her.

I hope she hadn't yet been dumped by her anonymous internet fiance. That would just be making a bad day worse.

Reminds me of a few Mac "the grumpy" gigs I have been too over the last ten years, including a storming off stage due to a heckler and Mac deciding to abort "The Killing Moon" after the opening chords. Thought they were the thing of the past. A lot of the bands that I have seen seem to turn it back onto the audience (ie. do you wanna come up and perform instead?!!). Seems for all Mac's experience in the music bizz, it is one thing he can't cope with, rowdy audiences, wrong lighting or poor band support.

Anyway, more details about the model/daughter and her attractive female friend please.

Hand the dads a video camera and tell them "make yourself useful"
