Tickets for the smaller venues on the UK tour are advertised in today's NME.
Accompanied by another satisfying shot of Morrissey, which is however nothing on the classical violinist of last time around.

Uncleskinny also posts on the general board (original post):
Top 100 British albums; of interest here-

54 - Morrissey - Vauxhall and I
26 - The Smiths - Hatful Of Hollow
19 - The Smiths - Strangeways Here We Come
2 - The Smiths - The Queen Is Dead

and at number 1 - The Stone Roses - The Stone Roses.

I'll get a full list up later, along with the attendant quotes from Johnny Marr. Also there's another HUGE full page advert for the provincial dates - nice Moz picture where he seems to be coughing or something

well sort of, for the second consecutive year Morrissey has been featured in a Documentary at the Sundance Film Festival. Last year "New York Doll," this year "Glastonbury." Obviously the documentary is about the UK music festival. The documentary covers the history of the festival, and the eccentric personalities of our friends in the UK. Morrissey is featured performing First of the Gang to Die from the You Are the Quarry tour. It not the whole performance, but a good minute and a half of his performance. All in all, the film is pretty good, and has plenty more musical performances of interest from past festivals. Look out for the film sometime this year, certainly in the UK, possibly in the US.

FYI, I saw the Coachella film last night and wanted to let fans know that there is indeed a Moz performance included. November... is shown in its entirety. A decent performance that's introduced by a funny bit with a Moz lookalike that had attended the festival that day. Overall a great film with lots of good bands.
