Imagine my amazement reading through the local news rag finding under the music section "Morrissey drummer helping local bands make most of their talent".
It turns out that Spike Smith comes from Peterborough UK, and is giving lessons to local wannabe drummers for £15 per hour. Bargain of a lifetime perhaps, but does this mean he's not got any Moz studio work coming up??? New album plot thickens. Anyway Spike will be appearing in the SRM percussion shop in Mayors Walk, Peterborough on Sunday 13th Aug from 3pm for anyone wanting drumming lessons, it says here. The most amusing bit of the article is the resume of Moz's career entitled "Riding High in the Charts". It notably talks about the man in the past tense, reinforcing the comment that the only thing the British press will review positively is the death of Morrissey! The resume bit follows:
(more)
Stephen (sic) Morrissey, who preferred to be known only by his last name, formed The Smiths in 1982 with guitarist Johnny Marr, and the band had hit singles and albums, including Panic and Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now, through much of the 80's.
Morrissey left The Smiths in 1987 to go solo, launching his debut solo album Viva Hate, in 1988. It included the chart hits Suedehead and Everyday Is Like Sunday.
