please, can someone tell me what the big deal is with the flaming lips? i always hear that they're so great and that they won a grammy, but really, what am i missing? I will be the first to admit that i haven't heard much of their music catalog, but if they're so great why is it that the only song of theirs that i can think of is that "she uses Jelly" song? I know what some of you out there are thinking, "well morrissey is genius, yet not many people know of him either." True! but even the most casual music fan knows that morrisey has more than one musical gem (if you can even call "jelly" a gem). I'm not evading giving credit to a band whose reputation as "innovative" is probably warranted (like i said, i haven't heard many of their songs), but can someone seriously tell me why and how they've manaed to craft such a reputation on a dumb song that came out 10-12 years ago and have never managed to hear any other song?

This rumour sounds promising, could it be that Morrissey will do another batch of European Festivals this year?

the Wild Wild West festival with will smith

I though that the "Way Out West" was just to promote Luger's own bands for promotion?
Allthough they got many really good bands there 1200 SEK is way too much for that kind of festival.

See Ryan Adams on the bill.
(he's making better music than Moz the last few years, especially compared to ROTT).

Come on then.........

My good friend Swallowneck of Sewersby Bridge has almost choked to death on his own rising vomit at this "news" story... He is not too keen on festivals either, as he likes to remain in a clean and hygenic condition "just in case" any opportunity (in the form of a hunky Mikey Farrell look-a-like) comes knocking on his door.

By the way - anyone wishing to visit Sewersby Bridge this weekend for a casual dalliance with Swallowneck can rest easy in the knowledge that discretion will be of the utmost assurance, so your mother need never know!!!

News Flash
sweedish meetbals
Moz is not a devil worshipping 2 year old girl
so there

So last year he played Karlstad in August and now he seems set for Gothenburg and maybe the lads will use those "made in sweden" t-shirts again.
That possible gig should attract a lot of famous swedish artists influenced by him standing at the front next to Dracula... eh, sorry Julia!

Moz is not a drug-crazed hippy!

Everyone checked todays Göteborgs Posten? According to their sources Morrissey, Nine Inch Nails and The Pogues are probable!

will probably cancel.

I believe he will, just like he played at the Isle of Wright back in '05...

if that law applied to comedy we'd all be bored stiff.

watching the top 100 stand up comedians, i'd say 95% were racist, homophobic and politically incorrect.
