I have seen a guy at a Half MAn Half Biscuit gig with Joy Division Oven Gloves.

Didn't they actually license those? Maybe that's what the Bunnymen are missing: Official EATB dish towels AND oven mitts.

You might be joking, but I'd buy them. I love cooking just a little more than I love the Bunnymen. :-)

There were Joy Division sneakers, so why not EATB pot holders or spoon holders for your stovetop. Dishwasher safe, of course :cool:

I recently paid nearly £100 (between customs charges and delivery) for a pair of Johnny Marr PF Flyers. Maybe Mac should give it a go? The Ramones Converse All-stars look pretty cool but they seem to have sold out.

I think Mr Brian should "team up" with Cafepress and sell some unofficial VT forum goods - thongs for the ladies, boxer shorts for the lads and babies' bibs. Custom golf shirts or onesies would be quite cool. What about custom tank tops, maternity t-shirts or even a yard sign?


I did try a T-shirt with that "Mac as Elvis in a cape" design. I managed to order one for myself but then *someone* put the smack down on that and CafePress took it down. I can't be sure but I have a feeling it wasn't the Elvis people. It was way too fast for them to know and someone had already posted about it on the BOF. I did get mine (rare collectors item?) and I thought someone else had managed to get an order in but as I recall the other orders were canceled.

I remember it well. I should have ordered one for nostalgia purposes and to say "shove that up your b-sides, demos and other rarities, few have this!". Still, there's nothing to stop capes with Villiers Terrace.com written on them being sold, or t-shirts and other crap and useless novelties and souvenirs. The more useless the better I say.

One more album like "The Fountain" and Bunnymen merchandise will be less popular than Nazi Memorabilia.

Really? I love eating. Perhaps we could team up.

I believe Moondance got it. She has the Devil's own luck, that one.

Do you know who ratted you out on the BOF? How did that person even know about it? They'd have to be keeping an eye out for honestly original Bunnymen stuff, wouldn't they?

This should be offered again through a different avenue, but kept on the DL so only the underground knows of its existence. Then at the last minute we all pop out from our hiding places wearing the shirts.
