What struck me is how photography has changed in the digital age. He was using distress flares and fish pieces to get some of those shots. Now it would all be done with Photoshop and image filters.

Seems worth every penny. Nice pics, especially some of the poignant ones of Pete - like that one from the HUH photo shoot of him standing on his own with the rest of the Bunnymen in the distance.

As long as you didn't accidentally order:

Think you'd expect a pretty sizeable one for £380 a pop. :redface:

I had to ask Mr Griffin if he hates or loves Family Guy's Brian Griffin.
"Hate him!" Was the reply.

Think you missed something out there.

I had to ask….. "Hate him!" Was the reply before adding, "giggity giggity" and hanging up the phone.
