But itÂ´s only half of the Bunnymen these days and their last few records were rubbish. WerenÂ´t they?

And remind me how good have The Sisters recent releases been? Oops what releases?

I dont wanna turn this into "my band's better than your band"....but you started it

Never knew the Bunnymen were an "upcoming band".

Their last few records may have been pish, but they can still pull off a cracking show when they feel like it. Full gig reports are expected, folks!

Now confirmed on the Bunnymen site.

This must be the smallest, cheepest bunnymen gig for years.

Off to watch Will DJ tonight which could be fun.

Personally, I thought Flowers and Siberia were decent enough. And they do have the decency to play their hits live.

I, in all seriousness, thought they lost it on Ocean Rain, not a popular view (as I know from the abuse I got on the Bunnymen forum) but I used to get totally out of my mind to Crocodiles and Heaven Up Here, Porcupine had some absolute knock outs but after that, it just stopped happening for me.

I'll concede there is undoubtedly something untouchable about the first two albums. But as far as most reformations go, the Bunnies have at least put the effort in over the last ten years. It's a shame Les couldn't stay on-board, but things were never going to be the same after Pete's untimely death.

even Cope lost it... c. Peggy Suicide?

Posted: **30 Aug 2007, 18:51**

I'm too ignorant re: Cope's history to know what album's what, but I still love Kolly Kibber's Birthday, Fear Loves This Place, Charlotte Anne, et al.

all pre or on Peggy Suicide

Well that was f**king great. A nice, small, sweaty venue (imagine Joseph Well but smaller) with the bunnymen on stage for about 70 mins. Nice greatest hits set with 2 new songs and no ocean rain.

Oh and free magners in the pub beforehand.

no Ocean Rain is a good thing, a very good thing

Where the hell were you? Went looking but couldn't see you before it all got a bit packed. I was front row, centre stage about 3 feet from Mac (wait til you see the pics scotty, you'll be dead jealous). Almost got into 2 fights, one with a bouncer for taking pics and one with this huge twat behind us who kept using Mrs R's shoulders as a climbing frame

Amazing gig and a bit of a

moment being that close to one of my heroes

Oh, and the whole thing was filmed

We were about 4 - 5 feet in front of Will so we must have been near each other.

Them bouncers were complete twats. It felt like every 2 minutes they were trying to get past to have a go at somebody for taking photos.
