Tired of discussing the Bunnymen and all the bands that have been influenced by them? This is the place for you.

you could put on a dress and pretend to be a girl so that you got in a lifeboat.

That should be no great hardship for him.

Only delaying the inevitable. I'd prefer death at my own hands (hopefully in a nice black dress like below).

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

nonsense - you'd just need to carry some shark repellant like the proper batman used to:

Correct link!


As I am definitely heading to UK and France next summer, I would like some advice on where to go!

Edit: Oops! The previous link was NOT correct, obviously. :redface:

The dress is cool though--can't wait to get it!



1 - Send the wrong link I want to see the dress
2 - In GB there are loads of great places to go and it is not a rip off -- Wales is great so is Liverpool - I was in London at the weekend and had a fabulous pub lunch/dinner for £8.00 -- breakfast for less than a Fiver -- when the sun shines London is a really nice place to be
3 -France -- visit Paris, then get train down to Dijon, then the train to Antibes near Nice -- I would highly recommend Carnac in Britanny -(so much better than Stonehenge) -- be careful going to France in August as it can be a bit mental.
4 Come to Ireland -- God knows we need the money --the bunnymen are playing here in Sept


p.m. me for lots of UK and France tips if you are interested..

had an email from a former mrs cherry (80s lineup) a few weeks ago - we're great friends now, she lives in scotland - hey I'll give you her number and she'll show you around. ANyway she's been having hard time of things lately and on a recent trip to paris she said the only thing that cheered her up was recalling how I slipped on a chicken's severed head just outside the gar du nord. Had to be there I suppose.

Sounds like he's had more Cherries than a fruit machine.

Here it is. I'm usually not a fan of red, but I had to have this one!

Dress for those who are curious

And as I'm not going til 2012, provided the world doesn't end on May 21 like some loonies think, so I have plenty of time to collect tips! A trip to Ireland would be fantastic, too, but I'm not sure how deep my pocketbook will be next year.
