strange obligation to attend bunnymen gigs

Postby 5times » Fri Oct 25, 2013 7:24 am

I feel obliged to watch the bunnymen, or Mac, if they are doing a gig close by. Like it's my duty or something. I bet others have this as well. I wasn't going to watch Mac in St Helens back in February but I eventually succumbed and went. I wasn't going to bother with the xmas show this year, but as soon as I saw the tickets on sale I bought three, without even thinking about it. Like I had to. I feel a bit guilty for not having watched poltergeist yet...
Why have I developed this weird loyalty to the bunnymen? They wouldn't exactly miss me if I didn't go. I can't see Mac scanning the audience and asking "where's 5times tonight?"

the bleak hope that tonight is going to be the one? I tend to go if its local, cant be bothered going miles and miles (streets and streets and streets that is) unless its a special do. I'd probably go to cornwall if they did carnglaze caverns that was mooted a fe years ago, - or maybe not. But deffo not for the usual set.

fanboy loyalty to some extent I suppose.

I went all the way to Glasgow to watch them in the Apple shop. I was chuffed that I'd 'won' free tickets, despite it costing a fortune in petrol.

I can't even be arsed going into town to see them these days. Never thought it'd come to this back in the days of my fanatical youth.
