Then we started a long discussion joking about "what the kids want".

That was around the time we heard new tracks from the Fountain or the boy band producer was announced and the BOF said they were going for a younger demographic with that move.

How'd that turn out anyway?

This has got to be Red.

Once again, they've proved themselves to be an embarrassment and hinderance to the success of the band. I'm pegging this on Peasy, at least. He's a notorious bad speller. He's the one who messed up the word "sliding" and it became the title "Slideling." Duh.

So the idiots were messing around, probably drunk, and posted about voting for the worse fan video. Then what happened? Did Will read about it on VT and tell them to take the page down? And now it's a BOF tribute page to the fans and their videos. Gad.

BF, put a link to your facebook page up so we can look at it.

I see nobody had the guts to post any footage of that rambling fat twat doing Bunnymen covers in Liverpool Cathedral.

The post was on the Bunnymen Facebook page and it has been replaced with a kinder friendlier version. I think that Will perhaps caught wind of it somehow on Facebook not VT but I do think management lurks at VT from time to time.

On the spine of the US release of Evergreen "Bunnymen" is spelled "Bunymen" so it's become tradition I guess.

I think Dave did but it was deleted.

All important information comes from VT, Mr. Brian.

I put a post on FB saying I'd wasted £30 on watching Mac doing shite Bunnymen covers at St Georges Hall. It got deleted.

nearly made it through the whole of the song that
we shall never mention again.

Then felt ashamed that I'd even searched Goggle for it.

Washing my mouth out with soap as I type.

I don't see what the big deal is. Who cares about spelling? If it's good enough for the band then that should be good enough for us. Besides, Ivan stole stuff once. How about that?
Also, it's not like you paid money for those Facebook posts so you are not out any money. SOME PEOPLE! Grrrr.....

:evil:

Spelling ain't the issue, it's the approach and attitude
of the management, who, although doing a thankless
task do manage to make the Bunnymen look
like a bunch of scallywag delinquint teenagers.
