Bunny History

Postby crystal89 » Tue Mar 11, 2014 5:22 am

Lead Singer of erstwhile post punk legends Echo & The Bunnymen, Ian "Mac" McCulloch has revealed that rather than the band being formed in the girls toilets at Kirkland, despite reguarly stating that in many interviews, it was actually as a result of a dream involving himself as Ziggy Stardust.

The bands history has been edited to reflect this change and the fact that a certain Mr Sergeant was found by a young McCulloch in the phone book, which might go someway to explaining the simple guitar lines on the first few albums.

when asked to comment the dishevelled elderly man just rocked in his chair rambling on about how unfair everything was.

It's only a matter of time before he changes the band name to Ian and The McCullochs.

Even "Echo" being the drum machine was a bunch of bunk. Will admits they just made that up and it stuck. It gets repeated as gospel to this day.
