Every time someone posts on this thread my heart sinks as I think "Oh no, what has he said or done now?"
I'm a lot more forgiving than you Doug and think he's a lot more talented that you seem to think
Hard to imagine now but The Queen Is Dead, and their run of singles, felt seismic at the time. I loved them and their gigs were brilliant communal celebrations of the outsider
He may have always been a reactionary living in plain sight but I tend to think these tendencies were more latent at the time but have increased through him being as ex pat for decades and losing the stabilising influence of Johnny Marr who we can all agree is one of the good guys

I loathed everything about the Smiths. Over hyped drivel IMHO. I respect him for giving Killer Kane a last chance in the spotlight though.

London Palladium tickets are £72 plus booking fee. £80 then. Standing. I don't know how much the other tickets are. Probably similar.
The message is clear then, they don't want peasants at their gigs.

This is the new song that mentions Generation X and X Ray Spex. A rewrite of Cemetery Gates it sounds like to me.

Wondering if Boz Boorer is now out
Anyone know?
Apparently he's a lefty so must have struggled with M's reactionary utterings
Interesting that Americans still seem happy to work with him and put his music out
That no British label is prepared to release the album shows how uncommercial and toxic he has become here
How about we set up Swastika Records and sign him up?

^^^^Because his ire is only really aimed at Islam I suppose many are happy to indulge him.
Though the fact western foreign policy has created vast numbers of deaths directly and indirectly in the Muslim world seems to elude him which makes him a gutless cowardly clueless wanker.
