I just spoke to a woman at the Arlington Center in SB, who said tickets go on sale, through Ticketmaster, on Sept. 4 (Sat.) She did not have available the time at which the tickets go on sale.

From Sven Keiselt:

I´ve just received my tickets for the Hamburg gig and it seems like they have changed the club where Moz will be playing.

The new venue is the "G1".

"p@n1c" - nutty electro-industrial cover by boole

From Brad Barkett:

I have been a fan of Morrissey and the Smiths since about 1986. Someone convinced me and my band boole to do an electro-industrial cover of "Panic," and the song is getting more DJ play than we expected...

Go to their site and click on the audio link to download the 2 min., 13 sec. mp3.

Smiths in the NFL

From Jake:

"How Soon Is Now" was used by FOX last night (8/29) to lead into their broadcast of the Denver Broncos / Dallas Cowboys preseason (American) football game. They played a good two minutes of the song while a commentator hyped up the game.

And from Jeremy Brott:

Well tonight I had the tv on while I was in the kitchen... it was on FOX and I was hoping to watch the Simpsons like every Sunday night. Well it just so happens that they were cancelled for a football game I guess... while I was in the kitchen I can still hear the TV and I was shocked that in the opening segment of the game I could here nothing other than "How Soon is Now" as background music!!! It was just like the Nissan commercial, the riff and stuff played over and over.

I wonder what is next... Nissan commercial... NFL... presidential inauguration song?!?!!?

Signed Smiths tour poster on eBay

From versus1:

I saw this item for sale at eBay, the world's largest personal trading community, and thought that you might be interested.

Title of item: Tour Poster signed by Morrissey & The Smiths
Starts: 08/26/99, 13:47:49 PDT
Ends: 09/02/99, 13:47:49 PDT
Price: Currently $152.50

Item Description:
This poster was purchased in Aldershot, England in the early 80's at the height of the band's success. It was brought back to the US and taken back stage at the Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles and signed by the entire group before they broke up. The poster is framed, would prefer to ship un-framed. Buyer must pick up the additional packing/shipping costs.
