Blimey, the whole Morrissey thing has blown out of all proportion. Any Morrissey fans who have not signed my guestbook: PLEASE STOP!!!! Don't worry the tracks will definitely appear on a secret website very, very soon (within two weeks, anyway). The quite sad news is that not enough people seemed interested in the comedy gig/tracks playback. Pity, I thought it was a good idea. I'll let you know next week where you can find the tracks (although to be honest, it's slightly out of my hands)...

          you get what you wish for michael. Sorry to annoy you, but you DID ask people to sign.

          >>Don't worry the tracks will definitely appear on a secret website very, very soon (within two weeks, anyway).

          well why not today? How long does it take to upload a few tracks?

          >>The quite sad news is that not enough people seemed interested in the comedy gig/tracks playback. Pity, I thought it was a good idea.

          no sh*t, sherlock. Consider that probably a huge majority of the Moz-solo patrons are from places other than the UK, it figures that people would rather have downloads than listen to a live playback.

          >>I'll let you know next week where you can find the tracks (although to be honest, it's slightly out of my hands)...

          this sounds to me like the write-off. "Don't blame me" when the tracks are not as advertised.

          If this is really gonna happen, then I'm looking forward to it. However, I can't help but wonder why he called the page where this info is found "crap" (crap.html)? Maybe it's because he's full of it?

          Let's hope not, though.

              What's so damn annoying (Score:1)
              Sorry to sound off here, but I am so f.ucking sick of fellow morrissey fans pissing off people who have something they would like to share (for whatever reason) with us. Will a day go by without some sniffling comment about how this guy is hoax, playing with us for his own amusement? In the past, hoaxes (when they do come) arrive anonymously. Has anyone ever thought about the fact that this man is a public figure? Why would he risk humiliation (or at least heckling) from morrissey fans every time he goes up on stage?

              Give this man a f.ucking break already. The reason we don't get more people sharing rare finds with us is because we're all a giant pain in the ass--perhaps we're just taking after morrissey or something?

              Of course, be skeptical, but don't ruin the slight chance of this working out with your s.hite drivel.

              Well, we will see if these tracks actually do make it out, and I actually know that one of them really does exist because I have had a copy of it for quite some time. The others I have only heard of, but I am so curious to actually hear what they sound like. I wonder how many "Unreleased " tracks there really are though because you have to figure that out of all the years Morrissey has been making solo stuff, there has to be quite a few that were never even recorded or just played while the band was jamming or something. As far as I know though, none of these tracks that were listed are hoaxes, so you don't have to worry about that. I don't think......

              Just to make this more interesting I will offer a free mini disc with all four tracks to the first person to come up to me at one of my gigs and say "Hello, Can I have that Morrissey mini disc now please". This is 100% legit. I'm in Crytal Palace tonight. For other dates see my website. I repeat: This is 100% legit. Also please note, I will only bring 1 mini disc. First to speak to me gets it.

              have been good to do something Moz-related AND

                This comedian ive never heard of has sent me a vicious email calling me a c*n* and a burger flipper. All because i posted a message on his guestbook which HE asked all morrissey fans to visit and voice their opinions.

                I would like to make it known to mr legge that burger flipping is a noble occupation and he in the future may find out himself the joys of it.
