Dennis BlandfordScheinbar hatte man geplant zu SWORDS, der B-Seiten Kollektion aus 2009, ein Promo Video zu „Ganglord“ zu veröffentlichten.
Vergleicht man die Arbeit mit den letzten tranigen u. unmotivierten Moz Videos, muss man attestieren, dass es eines seiner besseren ist, eher im Stile von Derek Jarmans Arbeit für The Smiths 85/86.sehr schöner clip. morrissey saves! :sonne:

Statement from Morrissey
30 April 2010
Statement from Morrissey
My trusted ally Janice Long has passed news on to me of the sudden death of Melinda Hsu. I did not know Melinda personally, but I felt as if I did because she had been a front row fixture for many years. In fact, from her many letters and gifts I understood her name to be Mel Torment, or even, when she felt at her most pernickety, Smel – which I’m certain was not her given name. Mel was a smiling face who lent strength to every single concert, even when events were going somewhat pear-shaped. I felt as if I knew Mel because she was always there – regardless of wherever ‚there‘ happened to be; no snowbound landscape too far, no off-the-beaten track too untrekkable. I often handed her the microphone mid-concert and she would always make an effort to say something different each time. What is more, she always seemed so happy to be there on the front row, even though she had heard these live renditions enough times to emaciate the brain of the most inherently decent devotee. However, she was booed by the audience once – in Killarney, when she asked (via microphone) with a tone of disbelief „why Killarney?“ but I don’t think she meant the contorted snootiness assessed by the rest of the audience because she was not that type.
Those who travel from concert to concert as Mel did possibly don’t realize the contribution they make. They are as much a part of the night as I am, but I sometimes feel embarrassed because I think they are asking for more than there is, and, mustily, I can’t give it. The goat-like vocals and the tipsy monologues are all that I am.
Mel had passed a note to me at Pomona saying that it would be her final concert of the tour. Yet, hours later, in another venue, there she was again. Even after all she had done, even after all the money she had spent and the millions of miles she had hiked she still could not keep away from the squeeze and bend of yet another version of „First of the gang to die“ – never imagining, I’m sure, that it is she who would be the first. As ever delighted and content at Ventura (where we gave our final bow), I cannot imagine whatever it was that Mel believed she saw or felt as she fixed upon the stage night after night, year after year.
Her contribution was a declaration of love for which she seemed to save all of her strength, and for which I could only ever repay with half-witted mumbles of thanks.The only way to deal with Mel’s death is to accept it. There is no other way. We all have a certain unbreakable appointment and we are all helpless targets in that regard. Life’s only promise is its final deadline. When Mel, and others who are dear to us, depart, we should at least realize as we shuffle along living our small and persecuted lives, how absolutely ridiculous it is to be afraid of anything or anyone on this unhappy planet. Most people are standardized and unoriginal, which is useful, because it makes the Mels of the world stand out even more. Rich in ideas, her self-made calendars and t-shirts were always very funny. You will catch up with her in the afterlife, where I’m sure she will be as creative and busy and as Mel Torment as ever.
Thank you to Julia at True-to-you for printing this.

France, april 2010.ein etwas älterer true to you eintrag vom juni wo er nach krankheit auf der YOR tour kurz vor luxemburg nochmal sich zu wort meldete und der evtl unterging:
http://true-to-you.net/morrissey_news_090601_01
und über andy rourke
http://true-to-you.net/morrissey_news_090913_01
den längeren artikel von dezember wo er sein lieblingskonzerte aufzählt und über die tour schrieb wurde ja auf den vorigen seiten schon gepostet--
Habe den Brief auch eben gelesen. Finde ich sehr anständig von ihm, dass er Mel so würdigt. Als Fan einer Band, die ihre Fans eher als lästige Fliegen betrachtet, finde ich solche Worte besonders nett. Heutzutage wird den Fans ja gern Honig um den Mund geschmiert („Ihr seid ja so wichtig“, „Ihr seid die Besten“), aber dieser Brief klingt ehrlich, weil er nicht zu sentimental und rührselig ist.

01 May 2010 BBC Radio 2- The Record Producers
Hi AllJust to say that the BBC Radio program featuring myself will be broadcast on Radio 2 at 10 pm on 3rd May 2010 and will also be featured on BBC 6 Music the following Sunday.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00s7mc1
It was intended to play a 20 second segment of an out take demo that I recorded with Morrissey in the program but Friday afternoon (30th April) both the BBC and myself received a letter from Morrissey’s solicitors threatening an immediate injunction preventing any broadcast unless the material was removed.
Apparently their client (Morrissey) was ‚horrified that the proposed material would be broadcast‘. I can not understand this way of thinking at all. Throughout the program I am extremely in full praise of Morrissey and the demo was intended to show that even when he was singing on a 4 track cassette he still sounded great! I didn’t think it would do any harm to play a small segment but it has, at this very late stage been removed. I would also like to say that I’ve seen mention of some Viva Hate demos being available on the internet. How they got there, god only knows! I have certainly never distributed any out take recordings or demos on the ’net and I’d be interested to know who did?!
The producer of the program, Steve Levine, has told me that throughout all the other episodes including artists such as Paul MacCartney, Holland, Dozier, Holland (Motown), Bruce Springsteen and Phil Collins, rough demos have been played with their blessing and this is the first time they have been threatened with an injunction. These artists have realised that the program isn’t about them, it’s about the producer and the work involved in taking a song from ‚demo‘ stage to the finished article, and as such, the playing of rare demos or out-takes is incredibly interesting. Oh well, some things (or people) never change!
Nevermind, I’ve been assured that the program will still be a good one! Hopefully you will enjoy!
Cheers!
Stephen

"And everything I know is what I need to know and everything I do's been done before."Das Morrissey-Sommerloch wird mit dieser angeblichen Entgleisung des Meisters gegenüber seinem Ex-Drummer überbrückt.
Das Gay online Magazin „Butt“ interviewte Elva Snow Frontmann Scott Matthew u. befragte ihn auch zu Morrissey, dessen legendärer Ex-Drummer Spencer Cobrin 50% von Elva Snow bildet(e).Do you have any good Morrissey stories?
(laughs) Yeah, I got one. I don’t know if I should be telling this. Well, O.K., so Spencer and I were writing together in his apartment in the East Village one afternoon–and Spencer spoke liberally to me about his experiences with Morrissey, that he’s kind of an intense, strange person, and there are rumors that he’s a racist–not that I really believe it, maybe he just uses racist remarks to shock or whatever. Or maybe I’m just still a fan and I’m creating excuses for him. Anyway, at that stage in Morrissey’s life–this was the late 90s–he was big into faxing. It’s very ominous, faxing. I mean, there’s this big, scary machine sitting there and suddenly it just beeps and the grr grr grr of the paper coming through, it’s really a little frightening! So Spencer and I are writing a song together and off goes the fax machine in the other room. And Spencer goes in there and it’s Morrissey faxing to see if he can use this song that he and Spencer wrote together. I think Morrissey owed Spencer money then and things were all out of sorts. So Spencer faxes him back and says, you know, sorry mate but I don’t think that’d be best until we’ve got all the rights sorted out, et cetera, et cetera. And he comes back into the living room and he and I are pling-plonging away on our guitars. Then, after a little while, we hear beep! grrrrr grrrrr grrrrr and we both look at each other and Spencer goes in to get the fax, and he comes back with this piece of paper in his hands and in big, black letters scrolled across the page it reads, ‘YOUR LOSS JEW BOY.’ It was like a death threat the way it looked! (laughs) Poor Spencer, he was just devastated. He’s very sensitive, too. I think after that he and I just went to a bar, did some drugs, drank beer for ten hours.Das Morrissey-Gossip Nachschlagewerk Mozipedia bestätigt im Grunde diese Story ohne jedoch direkt Morrisseys Äußerungen zu zitieren.

"And everything I know is what I need to know and everything I do's been done before."Nicht von schlechten Eltern ist auch diese Geschichte von einem, der mal fast Morrisseys Roadie wurde.* Und nein, dieser Link führt nicht zum Butt Magazine.
*Wurde hier vielleicht auch schon diskutiert. Ist etwas älter.

ja diese “ i was morrisseys roadie story kenn ich..hmm also besser keine elton john shirts tragen oder du wirst aus dem saal geworfen:lol:
his site has a reference to the story in Mozipedia. Spencer’s account differs in that he claims it was his wife that was in the room with him when he received the fax.
http://torr.typepad.com/weblog/
„The Mozipedia book tells a different version of the „Spencer fax“ story. In this version of events Spencer is with his wife when the fax arrives (not a boyfriend.) I’ve taken the liberty to type it up, here’s what the book says:
Morrissey was angered enough by Cobrin’s financial grievances against him to send the drummer an abusive fax message. „The fax came through and my wife, at the time, picked it up first,‘ says Cobrin. „She said „I don’t think you should read this.“ When i read it, i stayed in bed for a week. I couldn’t move. There’s no point repeating what it said because it’s all water under the bridge now, but at the time it wasn’t trivial. That was it, he’d crossed the line. It was the cruelest thing you could say to anyone after working together for so long. It still upsets me, but i realise that I’m one in a long line of people who’ve been treated like that. If there’s anything that gets Morrissey upset more than anything else, it’s money.“ A second fax followed. „A much longer one,“ claims Cobrin, „but there was no apology. It was just more blame, more pointing fingers and being very childish. That was the end of it. I was persona non grata after that.“
that he plays these mind games, as you say, with the public as well as with people he knows personally. I never thought he was being racist when he danced around wrapped in the flag, and I think his fetish for skinheads didn’t really have anything to do with politics. He just liked shaved-headed boys in boots.
morrissey und lady gaga

Danke für das Bild/den Link. Seine Meinung zu Lady Gaga interessierte mich schon seit Monaten. Das Foto sollte Antwort genug sein.

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.“

Okay, es ist nur ein Gerücht.
April Richardson mentioned on „Brekkie w the Smiffs“ on Indie 103.1 last sunday that Moz was recording in France. In the beginning of June he was in Manchester to visit Gaga…

Don’t quote me on that
Morrissey hasn’t been recording in France. He has been working on some demo tracks at St. Catherine’s Court in Bath.
According to my source he has also had preliminary discussions with Nigel Godrich – Radiohead to product the material. This may relate to the sighting at EMI last week. Unfortunately nothing will occur tell late Fall as Boz is currently booked and busy working with other bands.--
