30 Mar set + some news

The U.S. edition of Morrissey's new Greatest Hits finally came out. The bonus live disc is worth shelling out the extra cash - for the hardcore fans, anyway. Also, it seems that fans can sign up for info on some as yet unrevealed special internet-only album at www.morrisseydirect.com

Upcoming show worth checking out: Infighter at the Phog Lounge in Windsor. Infighter are a fave on this show, infectious with some definite British post-punk (Joy Division, Echo) influence. And they're from the greatest city in the world, Toronto, which can never be a bad thing.

Yes, it's New Order, performing on the set of Baywatch. I've no idea how this came about, nor do I want to, as I feel context would only ruin the beauty of it.
