You know, for a second I thought you meant the Face of Bo, and had some cognitive dissonance there. ::facepalm::
'Never Leave Me'
Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
So sorry to hear, he is a treasure indeed.
Joy Division biopic is getting raves at Cannes: [link]
There was an AP story about the Joy Division flick yesterday as well. It's funny: I just saw (finally) 24 Hour Party People last weekend, and the Guardian article has this:
He also appeared as Mark E Smith of the Fall in Michael Winterbottom's 24 Hour Party People, giving rise to a small irony in Control. When Curtis recovers from his first epileptic fit, his manager tells him: "It could be worse - at least you're not the lead singer of the Fall."
I remember Mark E. Smith himself in the film, but not anyone playing Mark E. Smith. When did the character appear?
Heh. In Rip It Up And Start Again there's a funny discussion about how Ian Curtis and Mark E. Smith studiously ignored each other because they both knew there was this other really cool guy in Manchester. Like they were set up as rivals years before they actually made any music.
I don't remember Mark E. Smith as a character in 24 Hour Party People, either. In fact, I remember thinking that a major oversight.
Maybe he was cut out? I didn't bother watching the deleted scenes on the DVD.
Hey look it's MST3K: Morrissey in tupperware.

Ha. I can recite the lyrics to that without even watching. Pretty good Morrissey parody....
