Legendary Scots rockers Simple Minds are set to perform a rare outdoor concert in Edinburgh on Monday August 28 at this year’s ‘T on the Fringe’ festival.

Written by Pmachine 07 Jun 2006, 23:49 540 Views Rating: 0 (0 Rates)
Scissor Sisters have confirmed details of their new album, which is called "Tah-dah". The New York pop stars have set a September 18 release date for the record, which is the follow-up to their self-titled breakthrough debut LP.

"Tah-dah" will be preceded by a single, "I Don't Feel Like Dancin'", which is a collaboration with Elton John, one of the band's biggest influences.

Speaking about the new album, which is understood to have just been completed, frontman Jake Shears said the group were determined to get the record right. "I'm completely excited. I feel like I've birthed a baby! That would be the closest thing, it was very weird and painful but I think my baby is really cute! The old rock cliché is very true, it's harder doing a second album, but that's why we took our time with it," said Shears.

We've got a greatest hits coming out at Xmas and there's the new album next year," she said.

07 Jun 2006 - Morrissey vs The Smiths

Written by Pmachine 07 Jun 2006, 23:36 514 Views Rating: 0 (0 Rates)
Morrissey has again dismissed the idea of The Smiths reforming, claming the rest of the band don't deserve to share a stage with him.

The former singer with the indie legends revealed earlier this year that he'd been offered £5 million to get back together with Johnny Marr, Mike Joyce and Andy Rourke.

However, Morrissey dismissed the plan initially and has now gone on to say he's no longer friends with the other members of The Smiths and sees no point in a reconciliation.		??
"I'm not placed on the Earth to torment ex-musicians. My life is gratifying at the moment musically, so why become part of The Smiths again? What's the point?" he said. "I feel as if I've worked very hard since the demise of The Smiths and the others haven't, so why hand them attention that they haven't earned? We are not friends, we don't see each other. Why on earth would we be on a stage together?" Morrissey asked The Times.
