Lol, Chinese Democracy will probably never come out.

That was Van Halen but they only specified that because they knew if there were brown M&Ms in the bowl, the venue hadn't read the rider closely enough and there'd almost inevitably be other, more serious problems with the setup.

LOL, you've obviously never lived here. United fans vastly outnumber City fans in Manchester.

Some really good observations on this thread. What's he's like personally I dont really care but professionally speaking I think he's by far the most talented of any of the so called 'indie' guitarists of the last 25 years. Most of his guitar work for The Smiths was simply stunning and is...

Is that really true??

I still have this. Good musical articles on The Smiths are few and far between. The transcription is excellent. Total Guitar was a first rate magazine in those days. Alas, it's absolute crap now....

He always seems a class act. Good musician too.

Re: Do people reckon that this would make a good 'Best of The Smiths and Morrissey' d All the playlists are great but I HATE the concept. The only other person I know who has done this is Sting. Eek.....

I'm just sick that I had an *unavoidable* family do on the Saturday so couldn't go both nights. Gonna be so long until Morrissey plays in Manchester again!

I don't think he has much talent for the trumpet/trombone at all IMHO. Very bad intonation I think.

I was moping at the back and the sound was A1 perfect. I wish I'd bootlegged it. Hopefully a good one will surface soon enough. Amazing show- Ive changed my plea and Anybody's Hero were massive highlights for me. How will we survive without another tour in the near future????

These are brilliant pictures. Did u take them urself? If so, well done. Great show last night. Would be going again tonight but have a family function to attend :-(

With the obvious provisos that any Morrissey album is streets ahead of anything else out there and, of course, IMHO.... It's very average overall. Boring even in places. You can see my comments in the 'Tobias Thoughts' thread but to echo them here, he brought very little to the table in terms...

He's a very limited songwriter. Almost all of his guitar parts on ROTT are bog standard 4:4 rock. It gets old very quickly- there's no novelty there at all and only occasionally much of a hook. He had a half decent hit with You Have Killed Me but even that wore out quickly, sounds stolid live...

Is he conservative? Yes. Is he Conservative? No.

So, Julia clearly has an obvious claim to being the world's biggest Morrissey fan. Let's look at the key facts: i) She goes to EVERY Morrissey show worldwide. ii) She gets mentioned frequently by Morrissey himself at concerts and has even been immortalised on WPTMIM (intro before No One...

None of the Smiths came from Salford. It's one of the ironies of their strong association with the city's Lads' Club.

Great sleeve. Loved that pic when they used it to promote the UK tour. Top package- all three versions have something good to offer and, as ever, the vinyl will be great adds to the collection. Can't wait!

*sigh* I would be. And its on TTY so probably it will happen. I think Russell Brand must be such a horrible person. Maybe he's not in reality but his media persona really repulses me. I don't want a slanging match at all so if you love that guy, please don't respond. But if you're a big Moz...

They have the same manager so it's not beyond the realms of possibility there is some communication between the two camps.
