Manchester's entertainment guide (Nov 22-Dec 7) "City Life." In this month's edition there is an article on Louis Molloy, a well known celebrity tattoist from Middleton. Suprisingly half way through the article this popped up.
"I don't do faces or genitals or things that I know people are going to regret. Like I had that Linder Sterling in once doing some photojournalism. She said Morrissey wants one."

Louis stabs a finger in the direction of his jugular.

"Loveheart on his neck."
How lovely.

After the party, I will post the details and scan some pics for you all... now it's OUR chance to shine

I just got this bit of news in via the Jobriath mailing list:
Warner Brothers has now found the master tapes in their vaults. Seems when they took over Elektra they transferred the master tapes to their place.

They are demanding £5000 for the rights to the Jobriath lps. Rob feels the amount is more than one of the small reissue type labels would be willing to pay. It's a roadblock we hope to be able to clear but for now it's the reason for a lack of progress. Thankfully via MP3s and Napster Jobriath's music continues to circulate unfettered by a label's greed.
