Yep,Steven Wright who did the iconic photo of The Smiths outside the Salford Lads Club,and an even more iconic photo of Monty outside Salford Lads Club,is displaying a whole gallery of Smiths photos he's taken,mostly live stuff,at the Urbis in Manchester.Near Victoria Station.
The exhibition will open on August 30 and runs until October 16 and will be on display in Corridor Gallery.
could be good,but will it be as good as looking at the goth's on the grass outside ? they still fascinate me 
mentioned in the paper the other day. he did the Strangeways album cover.
the strangeways road sign got nicked too he said. fuckin massive too. like 8 by 5 or something.
I think Spotnik ripped off the Strangeways photo for his Community 2 sleeve.
That inner sleeve photo of Johnny Marr (I think) is one of my favorite photos ever. All the carefree glamour of rock stardom.

It was nicked indeed. Just goes to show how dedicated Mozzer fans are, doesn't it?

Could be a good excuse to meet for a few beers in Manchester...

I'm up for it!! count me in
Um.... This weekend Leeds. Next weekend Electric Picnic.
Hang on... I aint going to no art gallery. Even if it is free and piss easy to get too.
fucking wont.
Why doesnt everyone just come to Cohesion. Much nicer than an art gallery. Even it it is outside and it'll probably be pissing down.
Or, even better. Why doesnt everyone come to this free thing in Stockport on sunday. Puressence and Gabs Wish. Quality chance to get pissed. especially with it being bank holiday on monday
nah.
I'll be watching the Lightning Seeds and the Procalimers at the BEATLES festival in Liverpool.
What's mancland got this weekend?
Oh that's right...the Steve Handbag festival down the Village.
although I might give Monday a miss, having looked at the names of some of these bands.

I'm considering this.
I really do think we need a gallery dedicated to the glory years of Morrisseys career. i.e. 1992-1997. What times they were, if only i hadnt been in school for them.

Got tickets to Cohesion already. Thinking about Puressence in Stockport, saw them three times already, once in Manc Town Hall - it was awesome!!
Puressence in Stockport will be a fantastic opportunity to get shitfaced. You really should come. Jemma is being a wimp and saying she might not come because she's out on saturday.
Stockport however, is a shithole.

Jemma is not really being a wimp, Jemma is out tonight, tomorrow, Friday and Saturday and her surname is not Rothchild.
Anyway i said i might still come

I know it is a shithole and that's one of the reasons why i don't really want to drag myself there... And anyway, got a party lined up on sunday so was thinking about monday? what do you guys think?
Got some fog thats going to need platting.
I'm sure i could sneak out for a while. Jemma owes me birthday drinks so i suppose thats an excuse.
