It seems that Morrissey came along to the Irish premiere of Alexander in Dublin last night.

Irish Alexander premiere attracts thousands - RTE.ie

I don't know why he was there - any ideas?

John Moore (Jesus & Mary Chain, Revolution 9, Black Box Recorder, John Moore and the Expressway) has attacked Morrissey on his own messageboard at-http://www.halfawake.co.uk/forum/

I quote-"there is something amusing about seeing the once Charming man, now with a face like a sack of marshmallows, at heart attack age, cavorting on a stage borrowed from the Elvis 68 Comeback Special and probably wearing some kind of girdle or corset".

Get down to that messageboard and tell him whats what!!!

Two Smiths/Morrissey references:

#1. Director Clara Diesen is putting up a "multi media performance" named after the Morrissey song "Now my heart is full", 9 jan 2005 at "Teater: moment", Stockholm, Sweden.

#2. Swedish band Starlet make another Morrissey/Smiths reference. This time it is a paraphrase of a line from the song "Handsome Devil": "...Let me get my hands/on your mammary glands..."

The reference take place in the continuous "favourite section" on the website, while speaking of the "cuddling hormon" oxytocin.

Obviously, oxytocin is produced in the pituitary glands, so the paraphrase simply is "So let me get my hands on those pituitary glands"...
