Question 8. Bunnymen producers Balfe and Drummond worked under the pseudonym 'The Chameleons' but they also released two singles with a female singer under the same name, what was the singer's name and which sometimes Bunnymen percussion player drummed on the first of their two singles?

question 8: In what year did the bunnymen start playing the 'xmas gigs' at the Liverpool o2 Academy? Have they missed any years?

I think the first was 2004? They missed out 2008 (played Ocean Rain at the Echo Arena) and 2010 (Crocs / Heaven Up Here at the Olympia).

Question 10. There's been a few Bunnymen related fanzines over the years but what was the name of the Bunnymen's self-produced publication from the mid 1980's?
