BOS Smiths, thank gawd.

ETA: what difference does it make if we complain to DC? Morrissey answers: "it makes none"

BOS2 Cure.

Agreed!  VHM General Public - I just read that Mick Jones was a founding member, but bailed when he decided to start B.A.D.

I think he was out of town when the s*** went down.  He might be referring to not being an official post from AL or something..?

nice to see Smiths win BOS.  The Cure tune was the only bustout, it seems. And the Smiths tune has been played several times by AL in her era and was her "Bonus track" several times when Dave did 1984.
