Stop the world, I want to get off.

We know there is more to life than the music of the Bunnymen. Talk about those other bands here.

I have no comment; however, those strangled sounds of sobbing aren't coming from me. Really. :cry: :cry: :cry:

Scouser said all Depeche Mode fans are gay so I imagine he's delighted by the news.
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

well that'd be different for a telly show. lou reed stopped her doing perfect day on some telly - americas got talent, allegedly, ha ha - but relented over letting her recording it. I expect someone pointed out it was likely to sell a few million and as writer he'd make loads more money out of it than she would. Why would the mode complain? They're that freakin cool are they?

It's no worse than that Nouvelle Vague piece of shit cover band. If they can cover DM then I say have at it Susan.

You take that back... besides, I had a thing for Mélanie Pain who sang with them, which was rather unusual given my fairly recent dislike for the peoples of France due to living with some of the pesky lot a few times in the last decade or so.

Always thought they were a pile of shit myself.
