Info straight from Morrissey's mouth - he said there's gonna be a new Smiths box set released in the US with all the singles remastered.

Also he said that he'll be playing in Pasadena, CA, the Civic (Sept). I asked him who he was listening to and he said Apex Theory (he really likes them)...

Mrs. Shankly sends the link to The Observer (May 12) article in the "drink" section:

An audience with Morrissey
Jonathan Rendall: 'We drove to the dank university hall where the gig was, knocked back a few more beers and noticed how clean the students were. Me and Alvin were practically the only people smoking/drinking.'

The "7º Festival de la Escena Indie "ComtemPOPranea 2002" will take place in Badajoz, Spain during the first week of July.

The line up includes a very good mix of Spanish & British indie bands and what's even more important: "The Smiths Homenaje" where all the bands playing this year will perform a Morrissey/Marr song.

The Smiths, according to organizers, were "the most influential indie-pop band from the last 15 years" and all the bands agreed to played their songs under their own "musical approach".
