Ocean Rain Live CD Update

Postby beachbum » Wed Apr 29, 2009 5:09 pm

This just in from the other side.
Echo & The Bunnymen Official Ocean Rain Live Liverpool CD Statement.

It is with deep regret that Echo & The Bunnymen have to inform you that the release date for the Official Ocean Rain Live In Liverpool cd has had to be put back to the 31ST May 2009.

This decision was made after the first batch had been received from the manufacturers. Having inspected the cd and listened to the final sound quality the general feeling was that the pressing quality was not up to the standard that we had been promised.

Echo & The Bunnymen deemed it preferable to have the cds re-pressed rather than send out what would have been a poor quality recording of such a memorable occasion.

Echo & The Bunnymen have been overwhelmed with your response to this exclusive website-only cd and feel that rather than send out a ‘half hearted’ production that you all deserve the best re production possible.

Ian & Will completely understand the huge disappointment that this delay will cause many of you and therefore Echo & The Bunnymen are happy to offer a full refund to any fans who require one.


This will no doubt prolong the release of The Fountain due out in a few years from now.

The fuckers didn't sign it though. Add that to the list of lies.

That's because they were too busy finishing up the last song on The Fountain.

So, The Bunnymen have had our money for god knows how long, and are now telling us they're going to have it for another month before our (overpriced) cd's are dispatched.

I think this is the latest in a long line of amateurish bollox from all involved.

Way to reply guys. Custard has a point. They probably went with some cut rate CD house which skipped a corner or two.

Why again do people still post there?

Did anyone read the Q and A part of the news section concerning the delay?

Q:- I am sorry but I would like to complain further: who can I email ?

A:- That is no problem at all you can email the merchandise team direct on merchandise@bunnymen.com All emails will be answered on an individual basis.

Is it just me or is whoever wrote this being a complete dick to Bunnymen fans everywhere? "I am sorry but I would like to complain further" What the hell? Very odd. It could just be unintentional, who knows. It could've just read "Who can I email?"

I saw that too and wondered if that was someone being a dick or just badly wording the Q & A.

Based on the response received by Holy Custard I'd wager on the former.

It's not Custard's fault they decided to go with "Jim's Fish Chips and CD Manufacturing" to save a buck.
