That was brilliant. Saw the Bunnymen in '81 at Cloudland in Brisbane, looking at my copy of a TDK AD 90 recording of it now. Saw them again maybe 10 years plus ago in Sydney, where Mac led the crowd to sing You'll Never Walk Alone during the encore. Oh man, wonderful memories, thank you!

you got to love Will,, top fella.,, I was on before The bunnymen at a festival one time, after we came off i hung around sat down backstage as it was raining,, i sowly realised Will was stood next to me, just hanging out he was a cool fella didint say much but was totally there in the moment, he gave me his card, i never did say how much he'd influenced me with his reverbed twang howl when i was a kid, there was a time qhwen he was the only current guitarist that was doing anything important.

What a lovely fella you are Will. Looking forward to getting the new book for Xmas. I still have my 2 Eric’s membership cards , one pink , one blue. Must have gone over 30 times, I ran the minibus from Wrexham , or a coach for the big gigs , Talking Heads, Iggy, then 8 or 9 of us for some of the less popular bands

Is there really a nicer person in the music industry than Will? I don't think so. His memoirs are ace, totally unassuming, honest and a Liverpool legend! Mac maybe the voice of the Bunnymen but Will Is the soul.

Saw the Bunnymen a few times, most memorably at the Lyceum in London. 2nd on the bill: Thompson Twins: Third on the bill: U2 - Bonio tried climbing the speakers, stumbled and fell marking him out as a stonking twit right from the start.

@@vaseofflowers4619continuing on from our convo about Dogtanian, there would have been lots of other things we experienced at the same time - eval knieval and bionic man toys. The rise of Roland Rat. Tom Baker being Dr Who and then Peter Davidson. Games on the ZX spectrum and Commodore 64. The Kenny Everett Show. The Young Ones being huge. Cheggers Plays Pop. Fighting fantasy game books like the Warlock of Firetop mountain. Beastie Boys and the nicking of VW badges from cars. Hearing the theme tune from That’s Life and thinking, fuck, back to school tomorrow. Neighbours and Bros being huge. I could go on 😂

@@swirlingfudge Tom Baker and Cheggers hailed from my hometown. I found Cheggers a bit bland and sometimes irksome as a boy but I liked him more when I heard in later years that he was an alcoholic and suffered from depression. What that says about me, I don't really know. I never twigged that the Chegster was a Scouser when I was a boy though. He had a slightly weird voice that sort of disguised his provincial accent. I didn't mind Roland Rat and buzzed off the name, D'arcy de Farcy Airtours, that Roland & Kevin used regularly. The Spectrum & the Commodore were put inside large department stores in the city centre around the time I started high school in Sept 1984. I spent an ungodly amount of school time (for a Catholic boy) in those department stores rather than school by Easter 1985. Hehehe. Why not? Here's a touch of irony for you: Kenny Everett was raised on the next street to mine. My nan said she knew his mum but I have no way of proving that of course. Kenny...or Maurice was from Hereford Road Seaforth. I liked some Beastie Boys stuff. I still own Ill Communication & Hello Nasty. It was the videos that caught my eye. The videos were funny and my younger brother and I enjoyed buzzing off them on MTV. It was stuff like dummies being chucked out of cars and off bridges that made us laugh. My brother was still in school at the time and I am an avowed worshipper of all things puerile, so Beastie videos were great.
