lozzamozza writes:

Moz was honoured today in London, at the Annual Silver Clef Award. He was awarded for his amazing contribution to music and for being an inspiration to others. He arrived late at the ceremony and took photos with The New York Dolls, praising them again.

On accepting the award he said " You must be bored of witty remarks today so I won't make any".

Morrissey in his own box for the New York Dolls show
posted by davidt on Saturday June 19 2004, @08:00AM

Bryan writes:

Having got over Chrissie Hynde being behind me and Jonathan Ross and David Walliams to my left, it was a greay joy when I saw Moz sitting in the lower box to the left of the stage, at first he tried to stay hidden but once the dolls came on stage he moved into the middle of the box and clapped along merrily. I'm guessing not a lot of people noticed him (dolls included) as when David Johansen asked for 3 cheers for moz, nobody looked to the box to do it. The dolls rocked the joint and their version of "take another little piece of my heart" was fantastic.

Rumors: Moz and Marr rumour-mongering on Holy Moly
posted by davidt on Saturday June 19 2004, @08:00AM

An anonymous person writes:

London media-insider weekly mailout Holy Moly contains this speculative snippet re Alain's absence:

"Alain White has left Morrissey's band due to illness.

A call was made to ask if Johnny Marr would be interested.

He said no.
We're sure that this isn't because Johnny's love didn't run as deep as Alain's."

God only knows what it all means.

The Boyfriends compared to The Smiths again
posted by davidt on Saturday June 19 2004, @08:00AM

Claudia writes:

New London band The Boyfriends have earned another positive Morrissey/Smiths comparison in the music press.

On page seven of this week's NME, in the "What's on the NME stereo?" section, their song "No Tomorrow" is described as:

"Highlight of the New Cross compilation 'Rip Off Your Labels', this is shimmering Smiths-pop with eloquence and bite."

MP3s of some of their songs are available at their website, www.theboyfriends.com
