My friend's interaction with the Bunnymen

[black francis]

They did an instore years ago when I was working at Amoeba on Haight. We were all eating lunch in the breakroom. Well, the band arrived, and when they saw we were all eating lunch, they made our boss kick us all out so they could have the breakroom all to themselves! Fucking dicks.

"Breakroom", is that like a bog over here?

[black francis]

I wouldn't know old friend.

So who really kick you guys out of there? Will & Mac? or was it management? Probably the dude with the curly, long hair. he is a dick.

[black francis]

No this was my friend's story as told to me.

I had the Bunnymen thrown out of my break room or bog as VB would say.

[girlwithnoname]

That just doesn't sound like something Will would do. Mac, possibly. Will? I can't buy it.

I also have a story from someone who worked at that Amoeba Records in San Fran--Will came walking in by himself, and the guy was the only one who recognized him. Will was very nice, he said.

Mac (allegedly) beats people up and powders his nose in the bog. I doubt he'd have his Kitkat there.

Is my internet forum integrity being impugned here?

[fat cherry]

i don't know what you're talking about.

[Voodoo Billy]

Seems like a long-winded story just to brag he's got a 'friend'.

[black francis]

I thought it was being implied that not only did I make up this friend but I made him a pretentious dickhole* as well.

He's a good guy and I've known him so long that when I bought X-Factor #1 off of him it was with my school lunch money over the course of two weeks.


*Stolen from Ivan and now a permanent part of my vocabulary.

And to clear up any confusion this is a direct quote from an online conversation we were having and the Bunnymen came up. This is not my story. I copied and pasted it here in a clever attempt to brag about my friend who used to work at Amoeba on Haight. The Bunnymen are incidental to this thread.
