The Smiths’ Reunion Weekend
3/31 - 4/2

The Smiths recently turned down a 5 million dollar offer to reunite…but they can’t turn down First Wave. It’s a Smiths Reunion Weekend, starting Friday at 12 am ET. All weekend long it's nothing but The Smiths and Morrissey music including rare tracks, live songs and the premiere of Morrissey’s new CD before it hits stores. The Smiths’ Reunion Weekend - exclusively on First Wave!

Update: 03/31 20:28 GMT: Belligerent Ghoul sends the link / excerpt:

"Sirius is serious about the Smiths" - LA Times

...all this weekend, Sirius Satellite Radio is running a nonstop Smiths-apalooza, the first time its First Wave '80s channel has devoted itself entirely to music from one act.

In addition, Sirius will premiere Morrissey's new solo album, "Ringleader of the Tormentors," in its entirety before it hits stores — another Sirius first.

          They are all the same ones that worked at KROQ during the '80s (Blade, Swedish Egil, Dusty Street, Freddy Snakeskin) - they're just missing Jed the Fish and Poorman.
