das bild ist nicht ganz so schmeichelhaft…dabei gibt es tolle aktuelle bilder…wie z.b im filter mag von 2009 oder live…

moz told a Gigwise source that he bought The Drums‘ ‚Summertime!‘ EP on a trip to Rome and was hooked on them since.
Summertime EP was released in the UK in 12 October 2009.
boy george ho was also at the gig, wrote on Twitter: “Morrissey was at The Drums, we had a poke off. He has a great smile!”

The Mozzfather isn’t the only member of The Smiths who is a fan of The Drums.

On Tuesday night, Mike Joyce and Andy Rourke were spotted in the crowd at the Manchester Deaf Institute show.

was ist denn biite ein poke off?

gaga`s meinung zu moz:

In a VH1 interview, Lady Gaga picks Morrissey’s album as one of her favorites of 2009.

Album of the Year
„I really liked Morrissey’s new album, [Years of Refusal.] I listened to that one a lot.“
via Simon Goddard’s blog:
„Because we were in Manchester, and since her album was called The Fame, I asked if she agreed with the words of a certain local bard that “fame, fame, fatal fame… can play hideous tricks on the brain.”

“Yes. I love that song,” Gaga replied in her Manhattan robo-drawl. “Sometimes when I’m on stage I do this thing with my voice where I go… fame, Fame, FAME! Which is sort of my homage to that.” At the time I wasn’t sure if Gaga was bluffing (with her muffin) until three months later when another interviewer asked the name of her “favourite celebrity with style.” After a few seconds pause she answered, “Morrissey.” Since then she’s Tweeted Smiths lyrics „Featured below is a Twitter entry (a tweet?) from Lady GaGa dated Friday July 17, 2009:

„I wear black on the outside, because black is how I feel on the inside“-morrissey. Thank god for my fans. I love you.“and has even alluded to conversations with Morrissey who she described with alarming casualness as “my buddy”.

So, there you have it. Lady Gaga is an actual “apostle”. An uncanny postscript to this, and the reason her Brits performance brought this all back, is my regret that I forgot to give her my intended gift – a spare copy of the Jobriath Lonely Planet Boy compilation. I’d reasoned as a Bowie fan and New York art junkie that if she hadn’t heard his stuff she may like it. Watching her play Telephone at the Brits makes me think she would have, or possibly already does. Close your eyes and it’s like listening to a Jobriath ballad as sung by Etta James.“
