Sounds very promising! If that is of interest: Saw Ringo Starr's son playing the drums during THE WHO's Quadrophenia tour in Germany in 1997. Did a good job replacing the immortal Keith Moon. Will surely do even a better job for Johnny.

Okay,
I don't see how Johnny could not play with Morrissey if he's going to be at Coachella. Come on! How could Johnny expect us to believe that he's going to be there just to play with Beck?! If Johnny steps out on stage with Moz, we will all go completely insane.
And if Johnny doesn't play with Morrissey, does this mean I will actually have to stay to watch Beck? Ugh!
Johnny Marr-no, really

They wont play together...they dont hang out anymore....they could care less...so why go in expecting them to....They will NOT play together, so why should they...just to please their fans??? They dont have to do anything for any of you!!! The Smith are past...accept it, they have both moved on, so why havent you? Its over, they are making totally diferent styles of music now, and basicly doing their own thing....And dont forget about a small thing called pride.....belive me they wont swallow it for the likes of any of you...

I use to think Marr was cool but he sounds like a punk here. If my guitarist ever ran his mouth about me like that I would punch him square in his face. He owes it to Moz to give him another chance. Don't be so selfish Johnnyyyyyyyyy.....
PS Who would want to play with Beck anyway??

I think it would be cool if in the middle of Beck's set - Johnny played his solo rendition of Meat is Murder - and then Moz came in towards the middle to finish singing it for him. That would RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You guys, don't let pride ruin a potentially good thing. Please let us get what we want because for most of us out here.....we never have.

Warren you are getting progressively more ridiculous with each statement you post. Where do you see Johnny Marr running his mouth? Funny I didn't see anything in quotes do you? Give it a rest.
This isn't Morrissey versus Marr. Both of these two have thier own lives to lead and if they cross paths and decide to work together than fine if not, than that is ok too. Collectively they have given us plenty of music to enjoy isn't that enough or is it ok to slap people around because they aren't doing or saying what you want them to?
Sorry to use up this post space but our friend Warren never leaves an email address for anyone to talk with him over on the sidelines.
See everyone in Coachella!!!!!

I've never been interested in a Smiths reunion, but I'm interested in the INTEREST and I get a kick out of what a bad liar Johnny is. We all know what's gonna happen...

I touched you at the soundcheckYou had no real way of knowing In my heart I begged "Take me with you ... I don't care where you're going..." But to you I was faceless I was fawning, I was boring Just a child from those ugly new houses Who could never begin to know WHO COULD NEVER REALLY KNOW morrissey wrote that about most of you fans out there. you will never begain to know what it is like to be morrissey or marr. so don't act like you do. they are broken up. the smiths are not dead, they are a legend. let it be that and move on. i know that you would like to think that when you meet morrissey, like at a soundcheck, that he thinks that you are really special. but to him you are really just another fan. you will never begain to know what it is like for him. i am not saying that i do. i just understand that i will never understand. move on.
he doesn't owe you anything <[email protected]>

Although I'm completely crushed to be missing Morrissey in the US, I'll be in the UK for 2 weeks in October. Any heartbroken Morrissey fans in the Manchester/London area, please email me! We'll sob over fish & chips together..well..chips anyway..

Hi everyone. I am a poor freezingly cold soul from the east coast who will not have a chance to see Moz on his upcoming tour. I wondered if my fellow fans will try to record (audio or video) any of the concerts on the new tour? People did such a good job of bootlegging most of the shows on the "Maladjusted" tour. I hope this trend continues so that the unfortunate fans like myself will have a chance to enjoy whatever treats that Morrissey (and Marr?) might have in store for us.

I'm slightly confused ... only one of these guys mentions Coachella. Is one of them letting his imagination run away with him? 'I know someone who knows him and he said ...' Johnny is definitely working with Beck, but maybe he WON'T be at the festival. These rumours are taking on a life of their own. I want to hear confirmation or denial from Marr and Morrissey themselves.
the singing defective

First of all,he doesn't own you anything. His singing in the first person. I.E. "I touch you at the soundcheck", so why does he later sing, "Take me with you...I don't care were you're going". To you, which "you" is in the second person. Ergo us fans. So why would he (Moz) want to run off with his fans, if we're not special to him. Get it right you moron, Mister #13. I hate unbelievers. Let me live in my world of bliss. Which happens to include the Moz man.

It's so funny how everyone knows if, and i said if, moz and marr become all of a sudden great friends again. How everyone would change their opinions in a split second. Marr's great and Moz is incredible. It takes less energy to love then to hate you soon to be hypocrites...ala coachella or whenever.

I READ THAT MORRISSEY WAS A FAN OF BECK'S MUSIC HENCE THE BECK SHIRT IN THE "ALMA MATTERS" VIDEO... PERHAPS A BECK-MORRISSEY-MARR COLLABORATION? IT IS ONLY A RANDOM THOUGHT AND A LAUGHABLE ONE FOR THE MOST PART. STILL THE SPECULATION OF WHAT SOUNDS WOULD DEVELOP FROM A COLLABORATION OF SUCH MUSICAL AND LYRICAL TALENT... IT EITHER GIVES ME CHILLS OR MAKES MY SKIN CRAWL I CAN'T TELL.p.s. WHO CARES ABOUT RINGO STARR MUCH LESS HIS SON?!?

Marr is just a sad mf. Stop ranting about him. He is so bloody overrated. Morrissey doesn't need him.

Goff,
Are you nuts?? Everyone knows Moz's best stuff
was when he was with the Smiths. He is still doing some great songs but Marr would only make him better. Everyone know that.

Chespaw - Thu, Sep 16, 1999 at 09:32:24 (PDT) | #22
Goff, Marr is a mf, but he's not overrated. His guitar work is absolutely awsome, second to none. I'm sad i cant go to that concert, but hope they do play together though, because even knowing they did would make me happy. When Moz played smiths songs on the concerts I went to, it just gave me chills.

i dunno whether moz will have a full show, but he will probably finish with smiths material..
agreed?
this material was wholly written by marr.
agreed?
the guitar reef johnny wrote for himself is performed best by himself.
agreed?
now, johnny knows all that and he will hear everything.
i am not talking about a reunion (which is a rumour WE started), but of a result of o phone call one made to the other or will make in the next few days, as the result of all those rumours.
it could also result in moz crediting johnny for the music of the song, and johnny will mention moz in someway when he shows up (if he shows up).

This is going to sound ridiculous but does anyone agree that Morrissey looks like Tom out of Tom and Jerry? Their eyebrows are identical!

Noam (#24) has a good point. We all expect Morrissey to play at least one (maybe more) Smiths songs. How is he going to feel about that if Johnny Marr is sitting backstage waiting to go on with Beck? Will he be thinking, "well, this is odd. Here I am singing a Smiths song (the music of which was entirely written by Johnny) and Johnny is right over there listening, and he hates me"? I just think that if Johnny is indeed going to be at Coachella with Beck, it will seem a bit strange for Morrissey to play a Smiths song without Johnny. But then again, Moz probably won't care. Or maybe he'll leave the smiths out of it. Or maybe he won't show up. In which case we're doomed.

If Marr is backstage at Coachella when
Moz is on stage, there is no way in hell that
he would play a Smiths song!! Morrissey would be too afraid that the song might not sound as good.
Trust me, he will stick exclusively with his solo
material. And thats ok by me.
