I've thought all day about posting this, so here goes
This is only my personal thoughts but I am confident many, many others will agree with me and hopefully add their comments to the post for you to read.
Morrissey / Merck
At least we now know that this website is checked regularily between your parties, so hopefully you will read this and consider the following?
Gig dates:
1. Can you please announce all dates being planned for the new year in one go? There are a lot of us running around, arranging travel and hotels etc for the dates announced so far and then may find gigs are being played a lot nearer to where we live. Particularly at this time of year, money is short, so please just give us all the dates so we can make a more informed choice as to what gigs we wish to attend.
2. Greatest hits album.
If you must release a greatest hits / compilation album, please do not include new material on it. The die hards have all of the previous stuff (most likely on various formats too) and personally I would only download (legally) the new songs and not purchase the album.
3. Manchester v Cancer
I know there may be an issue with Andy Rourke who organises the event, but please consider playing at this gig on February 23rd 2008 at the MEN Arena. This is the third such gig and so far all of the 'Manc Rock Legends' have appeared, with maybe James being the only 'Big Name' artist / band not to have appeared as well as yourself. It would certainly be a greater event with you appearing there.
I do hope you will consider the above and good luck with the forthcoming tour, new studio album and taking the NME to the cleaners!
