    Really, this is proving to be, arguably, the best Meltdown line-up in yonks. Too bad I'll be elsewhere...everybody who are going should consider themselves very fortunate!

            Try "Fratres" and "Cantus in memoriam Benjamin Britten" too!
            Great to see Morrissey branching out into other classical music aside from the Russian 20th Century masters.

          hmmmmm, £250 ..... hmmmmm £250. I keep repeating that figure in my head. hmmmmm. Can I justify that amount, a weeks wage, for a golden ticket. Even if i do decide too, will I get one?? only 100 golden tickets? Maybe i will get one if my name is Mike TV. hmmm £250..... hmmmmmm. Will these shows sell out quickly?? I hope i don't experience another Manchester MEN debacle. Morrissey, if you're reading this, send me a backstage golden pass. hey, if you dont ask ....... you retain your pride.

              are a truly great band and the closest thing there is to The Smiths that is around at the moment,very refreshing for someone my age as my record collection is dominated by Smiths,Clash etc. all older bands,and The Libertines are the next in line to add to that list for the future.

                  £200 is fine. Value for money. More is just complete rip off of the bourgeousie. And we know how much Morrissey loves the middle/muddle classes in England, now don't we.
