This months 'Word' magazine features an interview with Keane's Tom Chaplin in which he disses Moz a bit, and also a favourable review of the MEN Arena show.
1. Tom Chaplin of Keane - he is asked what books he is currently reading. He says he is "not a bookworm" but that he likes "music biogs". He says he has justed started 'Morrissey And Marr: The Severed Alliance'. Chaplin says he saw Moz on Jonathan Ross which "dispelled the whole myth for me a little bit". He then says Moz is now "a bit of a sad character" and says that, like the 'current-day' McCartney vis-a-vis The Beatles, "you don't connect him to the mythology". Sour grapes at Moz's comments about Keane getting to no 1 perhaps?
2. Review of MEN show - by Terry Tankard. He says that Moz's comeback has been carefully orchestrated but that Moz was "mostly magnificent" and that "his expressive use of the palm to underline those lyrical gems is complex and doubtless material for a thesis". The homecoming was, he says, "heartwarming" and were were "reminded of the unique nature of Mr Sadchester's gloriously wilful take on popular music". Not quite the "sad character" desrcibed by the Keane singer then.
