No music only interviews and NOT official...boring...

Please could the dvd compilers bear in mind that Swallowneck has an absolute stock of rare footage in the velvet vaults and he wants minimal duplication of material?

for information directly from the band members. well two of them anyway. All the other people that seem to be having all kinds of opinions are just full of it, or not saying anything new. Come on Moz, bring us your book!

after buying the piece of crap
the smiths 'under review'
the suckers can rush out to buy
this ,i'll wait to hear from the masses

A while a go i bought an excellent DVD from ebay called 'pasolini is me'. It's quite rare but well good I'd recomend it, and every now and then another one pops up on there.

would feature this:

1 introduction films by 5 fans, some famous and some not, looking at why they love Morrissey and the Smiths - it can be a simple talk, a demonstration, a tour of their bedroom, a reading of a poem or painting.. anything really.. each film lasting 5 minutes

2 snippets of smiths-era live performances, especially rare and high quality images interspersed with interviews and reviews, comments by observers etc.

3 the story of Morrissey's solo career, from collapse of the Smiths to his move to Rome, concluding with an interview with Morrissey himself

4 clips from each of Morrissey's solo tours, from Wolverhampton to Wembley

5 A one-off 'greatest hits' style gig at an intimate venue with fans allowed free entry, as long as they wear a Morrissey solo tour t-shirt

the ideal venue would be a freezing northern town, with rumours of the free one-off show circulated in advance and a set-list as follows:

The Teachers Are Afraid
Handsome Devil
The Operation
Panic
First of the Gang to Die
Reel Around The Fountain
Seasick Yet Still Docked
I Will See You In Far-Off Places
You're Gonna Need Someone On Your Side
TLOTFIPBs
Lifeguard Sleeping, Girl Drowning
I've Changed My Plea
The Queen Is Dead

encore: GF in a Coma, IBEH

finally, we see images of grey, bleak Manchester, lots of rain, shots of places featured in smiths songs and the sound of 'Well I Wonder' play us out.

Sublime.

PS I am a gay male aged around 48 and a lot of people I meet instantly say, "hang on, have I see you on TV before?" to which I reply, "No, I am not the writer, wit and popular singer/songwriter Steven Patrick Morrissey, born 1959 in Manchester of irish-English parents..." to which they reply, "No, I was thinking of those fat hairy bikers who do the cookery breakfast show on ITV on Saturday mornings..."
