Smiths still split! New DVD out though!

By admin | July 21, 2007

In other news, former bassist with The Smiths Andy Rourke has quashed hopes for a future Smiths reunion, insisting Morrissey is impossible to even contact, let alone coax into reforming, so says the NME here anyway.

Best quote of the story must be this (if you don’t want to read the whole thing!):

…when asked if Morrissey ever had any groupies, quipping, “He had a delivery once and the boy was in there with him for a good ten minutes, but apart from that, I don’t think so.”

Ho ho!

All this from the launch of the new DVD Inside the Smiths:

Speaking with candour, honesty and humour, Mike Joyce and Andy Rourke offer
a unique insight into the private life of the groundbreaking band: “The DVD
is a very real account of what happened when we were in The Smiths,” says
Joyce. “We wanted people to know what it was really like. It is more
truthful than anything we have revealed in interviews before because we
were relaxed with how it was done and who was doing it”
