>>> Oh, and it just wouldn’t be spring without Morrissey’s Birthday Party at 700. Sway and thrill to Smiths/Mozzer classics, and avoid the uncomfortable question everyone’s too afraid to ask: Thrilling as the Mozzer’s comeback may be, why does it have to happen at a time when he’s making some of the most patently uninteresting music of his entire career? True, most of the blame can be laid at the feet of these turgid L.A. power-punk combos he’s hiring, but, yo, dude is signing the checks, after all. Translation: Morrissey, happy birthday. You are still awesome and we are still so gay for you it literally hurts. But fucking get yourself a decent band already. 10pm, free, DJ duties shared by Todd Siwinski, Bethany Klein and Butch Sweaters.
