Bunnymen on Twitter

Checked it out. It is actually very cool. Seeing the pics of the band traveling or just eating soup with Peasy makes them real.

I am surprised I liek it.

If the band is not going to interact directly with the fans on the BOF, this is at least something kind of "real."

In a blow-up doll kind of "real"?

For some of us that's as real a woman we'll ever get.

And for others, they can't even get the blow up doll version.

Fair enough.

It is two guys with a small fan base who could perhaps even once a year do a live chat on BOF with their fans.

Instead, they twitter and the person running BOF tells fans they should not expect the type of album they made over 25 years ago despite the fact the band is doing an Ocean Rain Tour. After two one time only gigs.

Still, seeing the pics on twitter made me feel I would not be quite so mouthy with the band about my displeasure with the last two releases were I to meet them in person.

I was enjoying the tour pixs on Twitter -- all ten of them.

However, once again it sounds like a grand plan -- "Will and Ian will be Twittering from APW. Once they land.12:08 PM Aug 1st" -- but the results miss the mark.

Maybe they had to conserve their iPhone's battery.

That and the fact that their usual live show is made up of 90% material from over 25 years ago.

You're not really an uber fan are you?

Strange but between this and the twitter thread everyone's opinion seems correct. Strange.
