These are some fuct up parameters. No indication whether a proprietary (plug-in required) program like Flash would be allowed or recommended. No indication as to the overall dimensions (length in time/size) of such a movie/picture. The only deliverables described is a file under 500K including the images, text and music. For pete's sake. They didn't even include a font! :p dopes
 
Well, f*** you too!

Like it or not, the UK is still Morrissey's biggest market.

Believe it or not, we 'donkeydick brits' aren't getting it all our own way. You guys get 5 nights in LA, 5 nights somewhere else...before the album is even released. What do we get, one proper show, 3 meltdown dates and a couple of festivals (oh, and now Edinburgh). So don't give us this poor deprived Americans crap. What about all the other countries in the world who haven't got any prospect of a show, poster competition or even a TV appearance?

Stop behaving like an eeyore!
