Bunnymen at the RAH - The 'Ocean Rain gig' 16/09/08

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

I was thinking it was only a matter of time before the Bunnymen did one of these gigs and predictably they are playing 'the greatest album ever made'. I would have preferred Heaven Up Here myself.

To be fair mate there's not a lot of strings on HUH so a full orchestra gig on this kind of scale wouldn't really work.

Just thought, it's gonna be a rather short gig....40 mins? :eek:

I hadn't noticed the orchestra bit :oops: but it'd be great to hear some of their other stuff with strings 'n' that. Last time I saw them at RAH they turned in a cracking Heroin, that would sound top with added orchestral accompaniment.

There's something wrong with bands selling tix for a gig thats almost a year away... Not very rock'n'roll at all :/

Thank goodness someone has said this- I'm fed up of getting tickets months in advance (on credit card as that is the only way to do it these days) and having bands sit on my money while I wait impatiently...

This gig looks great- would be great to hear The Killing Moon with full orchestra in a venue with acoustics as good as the Royal Albert :notworthy:
I had a face on the mirror
I had a hand on the gun
I had a place in the sun and a ticket to Syria
