why ya dragging Scott into this ? Anyways, Mikes ship could of came in big, too bad he was impatient and sunk it long ago with that court case. I'm sure he has regrets now.
......And finally. No records, as promised. No record company will put up with him. Tours incomplete. At what point must pride be swallowed for that $$$$$ headline-grabbing reunion?
If it was done to gull this site, then others have been taken in too. If it isn't true, which is most likely, then why would someone, somewhere, go to the trouble of creating an event, calling it part of the Smiths Reunion tour, and linking on an events site. Sheesh.

Why do you think he has regrets - remember this - After a seven-day hearing, Judge Weeks found in favour of Joyce, ordering that he receive approximately £1 million in back-payments and 25 percent henceforth
I've heard from my sources that this gig is legit. Some of us have already started queuing. I'm number 7 on the list.
Yeah, I reckon this is bull ox. I reckon me pretty sure Morrissey & Marr Productions have a mil payout 40 minute acoustic gig at CHEVROLET that night.
P.S. I reckon do any of you lots know where I can get a Hard Rock Cafe-Las Vegas sweatshirt up here in Picadillyshirewarts United? It would go great with me Yankees cap.
*IF* The Smiths were to reunite, and let's say its Morrissey, Johnny and Andy....no Mike they get a fill in drummer. Question....does Mike still get a piece of that money from the lawsuit or is that lawsuit done and he gets no more?
If the lawsuit established him as an equal partner, I would assume that he would get a cut of anything Smiths related included touring.
Just a heads up that the list for those queuing outside the venue is now closed, so all you doubters have missed your chance to make the barrier. Enjoy watching from the back, losers!
If so that is friggin' ridiculous. All the evidence suggests Mike was not an "equal partner" and even he knew it. Moz got robbed by a someone that "bears more grudges than lonely high court judges". The Smiths are Moz/Marr. The other two are expendable. This isn't a band like Queen were all four did the writing and scored big hits. Or even The Beatles where all four sang on some hits and three wrote. Moz got cheated because of his politics and bravery in outspokenness over the years. That judge felt he had to slap the mutineer down. f*** Mike Joylessce and Judge Reeks.

Even if he is legally 25% of the Smiths, he is still outranked by the rest of them - so - I think - the other 75% could agree to boot him out of the band and keep the name. So, obviously, Joyce would still be due his cut from all the old records etc, but any new tour without him, he wouldn't be due anything.If the lawsuit established him as an equal partner, I would assume that he would get a cut of anything Smiths related included touring.

Isn't something similar happening with New Order, where one of them has been forced out and is trying to sue for more money?
