I guess you could say that's the end of that. Or, as a classical music fan might say, "Girlfriend in a Coda."

And now, the lead violinist in the orchestra makes a statement

(I had like five other Smiths-related puns lined up and now have no use for them. Sigh.)

i feel bad for the members of the orchestra

i: they are caught up in a vitriolic shitstorm not of their making, with derision hard on its heels
ii: they have been having to rehearse arrangements of smiths songs lol

They were looking for a job, then they found a job, then they lost a job.

Yeah I didn’t realise he and Rourke were on Bona Drag. He hadn’t played on a record since according to his discography??? Even though I slagged off Rourke just now, he’s worked a lot more than that.

okay i checked

for the completist

joyce played drums on interesting drug, such a little thing, international playboys, and lucky lisp

ftr i only like interesting drug but i do recognize that playboys is a good track

not sure about the other two

i never read about what was going on during the recording of bona drag but i wonder what the history of getting him to play on those songs was

Bona Drag is a compilation, those singles were recorded and released consecutively - Rourke and Gannon are also on them

thank you

flappy bird, Tuesday, 23 January 2018 20:04 (six years ago) link

I think there was a time when Rourke and Joyce hoped the band would get back together which might explain his involvement in the earlier singles, who knows Moz might have had those kicking around in some form towards the end of the band?

Rourke is such a great bassist

This revive is making me think of a future remake of Annie Hall wherein Alvy Singer complains about the record store guy telling him, "We've got a sale on Mo-rrissey this week..."

"i never read about what was going on during the recording of bona drag but i wonder what the history of getting him to play on those songs was"

bona drag wasn't recorded as an album, it's a singles compilation, and he was used to record those singles.
