Kevin Cummins and I have started a blog. Every Monday I'll be speaking to him (in English) about a photo he took. It can be an old photo, a new photo, a well-known photo, an unpublished photo etc. It started yesterday with a magnificent shot he took of Morrissey back in the days…

You'll find the blog at http://arca.spex.de/, hope you like it!

How do you feel about Morrissey dropping the F-bomb during his recent concert in Hamburg, Germany? (suggested by Ken Stavitzke)
I support Morrissey's response
Morrissey could have replied differently
I am undecided
I don't care
The audience provocateur should be examined, not Morrissey's reply
