We would like to make it very clear to everyone that Morrissey HAS NOT signed a deal with Sanctuary Records. We are very mystified by reports in the News Of The World, Uncut etc, which confirm that Morrissey has signed. For the record, Morrissey only met Sanctuary twice - and that was a year ago. They made a financial offer which just wasn't enough to keep things afloat - and was certainly not even remotely in the region of 5 million pounds. Morrissey was not approached by any other label in 2002, and has received no offers since the end of the tour. And, as of my conversation with Morrissey 30 minutes ago, things remain this way. We'd like to thank everyone who came to see us on the tour - it was the best tour of our lives. We had hoped to begin on the East coast by February, but, it just isn't coming together. We have been offered some UK festivals for the summer which we'd like to do. So, please, ignore all the Sanctuary rumours. When a deal is signed ........ we'll let you know... but only if ..... you're really interested.

Sanctuary Records involvement in perpetuating these rumours should be condemned.
Last year's 'release' posted on Amazon with catalogue album was bad enough. What possible motivation then would they have in giving this information to Les Inrocks at a trade show????
I really hope we hear more of Morrissey's new music soon - I'd say go into the studio and do another Janice Long session...but that would sort of defeat the object of trying to get an album out...

But thank you eternally, Boz, for clearing it all up. I will now gently lower myself from the tenterhooks.
And West Coast, East Coast, give a damn! Allow me to express humble thanks for breaching this "Fatal Shore". And thanks for the didgeridoo action - left that pissant Jamiroquai listing in your wake!
Ode to long-distance flight;
Thanks to Boz,
And praise to Moz,
Just because,
They came to Oz!
For placing themselves in front of my snoz,
(A finer sight there never once was),
Hopefully next time I'll have a better poz.
And may there be a next time! You are as loved as you are needed - we can't wait another ten years!

We all know that Morrissey can get a record deal, we also know that labels as big as EMI will never sign him. He made a big mistake leaving them for RCA, I'm pretty sure his last two albums would have sold much better on EMI even though they weren't quite as good.
Oh well, it's got to the point where there's more chance of a Smiths reunion than a new Moz album and that is certainly not a good indication.

BOZGATE: I don't believe Boz wrote that! (Score:2, Funny)
First of all there are no spelling errors. The sentences are complete sentences. The meaning of his mail is clear AND wrote more than 4 sentences.
Have you ever seen an e-mail from Boz? Not to harp on his writing skills or anything, but all the mail I've seen from him is littered with sentence fragments and mispellings -- and if somehow, amazingly if you got the gist of his e-mail you're lucky.
The statement supposed written by "Boz" is concise and thought out well. How the hell did he manage that? Also, how did he manage to write all that WITH NO ERRORS in under 30 minutes -- assuming tht it is true that he spoke with Morrissey 30 mintues ago.
Perhaps Boz has a secretary. Or maybe the update is false. You make the call!

Since Marr's Healers project apparently blows, Morrissey hasn't had a label in 5 years, and Joyce and Rourke have nothing going on....it's only a matter of time until they reunite for the common cause of our money. Yeah!

The legacy of The Smiths will be ruined forever if they do it, but somehow it seems inevitable because no other band regardless of how much hate there was or how big the band were have been cool enough not to do it. being cool doesn't matter when you're that age.
I don't want to see my favourite band ever running around as four breathless, fat men. My God, it was bad enough seeing that most of the male audience looked like this on the recent tour!
Moz and Marr: DON'T DO IT. Stay true to your ethics and be different, please, please, please.
As much as I plead, I would personally put money on this happening in the next 5 years, seriously.
