Salvatore Bono, blogger with The Huffington Post, has conducted a low-yield if affable interview with Andy Rourke:

Catching Up With Andy Rourke of The Smiths

- When it comes to icons of the indie world, none are bigger and get more credit than The Smiths. During their time together from 1982-1987, the band transformed the decade's musical scene with their swagger, style and sound. Today, decades later, their music continues to do the same. The band has not played together since their famous split, and fans have waited for them to reunite through famous feuds and fights, though it looks as if it may never happen.

In the song We dance to yesterday.
I'm a big fan of Hawksley, but this song is not my cup of tea.

El Paso, Texas, Moz fans take over Club Dedo, 204 Rio Grande, Thursday, February 10, from 9 p.m.-2 a.m. for "UNLOVABLE"- an anti-Valentine's Day night. Dance your legs to the knees to plenty of Smiths/Morrissey tunes or drink and be ill while watching "Casablanca" and "Pretty In Pink." Drink specials and broken heart candies while they last. No Cover!
