Morrisey was serious when he said years ago that hed "rather eat is testicles" than reform the Smiths.

although Morrisey is just as important, a SMITHS reunion without MARR would be like reforming the Jimi Hendrix experience without Jimi

I predict that they'll be disappointed, once more

Rather eat his testicles? Well, in all fairness, he claims he doesn't use them anyway and it would solve his "meat is murder" conundrum.

That's bad news. I'm rather let down.

Yeah, but being a Smiths fan you've probably been that way every day of your life since you were 14.

Man, I have never in my life known animosity towards another human so strong that it would prevent me from stepping on a stage with said person, play a couple hours worth of songs, collect millions of dollars for the effort, and make a LOT of my fans very, very happy. I can't even imagine despising someone that much.

Most people have to go to work five days a week with people they can't stand for years just to earn a living wage.

I saw Morrissey play at the very first Coachella festival.

When he came out onstage the screams from all the women were deafening.

Awesome show.

Johnny Marr should be working with Modest Mouse anyway, those guys will be a due for a new album sometime next year.

I didn't realize you wrote such really awful poetry.

Marr has apparently made enough money to be able to stick to his guns and do exactly what he wants ("f*ck you money", as it's called). No need to be jealous about it. Good for him.

Personally, I'm happy that at least one formerly huge band is avoiding the reunion craze. It's starting to get ridiculous.
