A BBC insider has told me that Morrissey is due to release a live album, probably one of the Albert Hall nights, in the New Year before the studio album is released.

On a Pixies website, former Pixies frontman Frank Black (aka Black Francis) comments on the possibility of a Pixies reunion next year. Amongst his comments as to whether or not they will reform (he is currently with the 'Catholics' group), he said: "It is hard to say whether it will happen. It may or it may not. We are as unpredictable as Morrissey."

On the same website, he listed 'How Soon Is Now?' as one of his favourite songs. He further confessed that the video for Pixies classic 'Here Comes Your Man' was a copy of 'This Charming Man', with all of the flowers and his rip-off Morrissey quiff! Way to go Frank!

D.C. Flag will concentrate on exposing new or relatively unknown bands, although there is one major act Joel is desperate to sign. "My dream is to put out a Morrissey album," he said. "Morrissey, if you wanna ever put out a record, one record, with us, man, we will love it!"

I recently bought My Life With Morrissey DVD and did a review of it on my website.

Although the review may seem negative, it really is, after all, my opinion of the film and should not stop anyone from buying their own copy for themselves.

If you appear in the Morrissey documentary, "Real Life With Morrissey", and wish to have a screen capture of yourself, because you do not have the capability of doing screen captures, feel free to email me ( [email protected] ).
