posted by davidt on Thursday January 15 2009, @11:00AM

Last Night I Tripped writes:

Looks like Lost Highway has put Moz on their site.

You can hear a snippet from "..Paris" and they have new photos, news section, shows, music, press, media, mobile and bio. Also they have released the promo single for "...Paris" in a lable inspired design. Check ebay for a picture. The new site has the place to buy tickets for Boca Raton (livenation.com) tickets on sale 1/16/09 at 10:00am.

Second sleeve for "I'm Throwing my Arms Around Paris"

As seen on HMV.com:

The second sleeve for the CD2 edition of the new single I'm Throwing my Arms Around Paris (b/w Shame Is The Name) is mainly the same as the one that will be used for CD1 and the 7".

In fact, the known sleeve is only an excerpt from the second.

Morrissey to play Poland?

posted by davidt on Thursday January 15 2009, @11:00AM

everybody's lost writes:

I found this article online stating that Morrissey is supposedly in talks to make a stop in Poland during his European leg of the upcoming tour - sometime in July.

The rest of the article just runs down his recent releases and last few albums.

New film "Adventureland" to (possibly) feature "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out"

posted by davidt on Thursday January 15 2009, @11:00AM

Torr sends the link / excerpt:

Is Greg Mottola's 'Adventureland' Next Year's 'Rushmore'? Plus Script Gives It Up For Neil Young, Lou Reed, The Smiths, '80s Alterna-Rock And More - The Playlist

A coming of age story set in the 1980s at an Adventureland theme park, the film is set to star Jesse Eisenberg, Kristen Stewart and Ryan Reynolds among many others as post-college graduates forced to spend a miserable summer working in a Long Island family amusement park ...Other tunes included in the script are tracks by The Smiths, "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out," (itself sounding like a true music-cinema moment)

Who knows if they all made the script, but director Greg Mottola did say they cleared the use of 50-some songs and Yo La Tengo's James McNew (YLT composed the movie's score) confirmed to us that an early cut of the film contained a boatload of songs.

The film hits U.S. theatres on March 27th.

Morrissey Exclusive: Calling it Quits? - Filter Magazine

by Staff; Photo by Michael Muller | 01.12.2009

In a recent interview with Filter magazine, Morrissey talked about his music, his life, the new record (Years of Refusal, February 17), and as you will find below, the prospect of quitting the biz. Here�s the nugget:

How many more years do you want to continue making music?

Morrissey: �I don�t want to go on much longer, really. I think that would suggest a lack of imagination. A certain lack of dignity also. There has to reach a point where you�ve said enough, I think.�

For the complete interview and cover article, check out the next issue of Filter, hitting the stands in February.
