    Guitar World: "Dave Keuning on Johnny Marr’s enduring influence: “We talked about countless Smiths songs in the early Killers days”" (May 5, 2022)

    I know they'll find some detractors here, but I've loved the Killers from the start and first saw them live when they opened for Moz at the Wiltern. Thoroughly enjoyed them live many times since, and can't wait to see them, and Marr open, at MSG in Oct.

    I'm not a Bauhaus fan, but the theatrics of their set were amazing. DEVO, consummate professionals that they are, also killed it.

    Pasadena, CA - Cruel World Fest (May 15, 2022) post-show

    I don't know about the entire concert, but there was a documentary that was being filmed on the fest, which is what the cameramen at the front of the stage were for.

    I was 2 feet to the right when this was shot. Damon had to race from stage right, where he was expecting Moz to exit to the back of the stage to get his robe on him.

    As far as vocally, I wouldn't have labeled it "lackluster" or "unenergetic", I would instead say that he seemed intent on nailing every note and saving his voice, possibly to ensure he was still able to perform tonight. We'll see if he let's loose. The cameras recording up front may have also...

    I did not spot Miley backstage, but that doesn't mean she wasn't there. Morrissey, Bauhaus and Blondie had a separate compound that wasn't admissible except to them and their bands and teams. I did, however, brush past Damon just after they took the stage.

    "This Charming Morrissey – Gay Iconography" - Towleroad

    True. I really meant "the least probable" of the possibilities.

    "This Charming Morrissey – Gay Iconography" - Towleroad

    Please do recall that he has been quoted before as stating that not all of his songs are written from his/a man's perspective, and that many of them can be taken as being sung from a female's POV. Not that I disagree about TCM, however, the only thing in it that can really be relied upon as...

    "This Charming Morrissey – Gay Iconography" - Towleroad

    Wow, they've taken some real liberties in claiming the themes in those songs as being "gay" ones. Part of the beauty of Moz's (particularly early) work was that it was its ambiguity. You could easily interpret any of the passages they quote as pertaining to heterosexuals as easily as you could...

    Smiths #4 on Wall Street Journal list of 5 bands that should reunite

    Give it a rest, won't you? I, personally, would only ever hope to see this as long as no new material were attempted.

    TTY: To Me You Are A Work Of Art: Book launch info from editors; Foreword written by Morrissey

    Re: TTY news: Book launch - 'To Me You Are a Work of Art' All other things aside, your idea that guest list access must be "earned" via years of hardship by queuing in poor weather (whilst being pierced by swords of the Roman Guard?) - is laughable.
