Not as funny as Angie Bowie on Celebrity Big Brother! LOL! It's a relief that the 'dignified mourning' period for Bowie has been ended on this site and everyone can get back to what they do best/hateful online creche, etc. And it's very notable that the change of tone originated from within Camp Morrissey [sic].
What surprises you about Capitalist Music Corporations seeking profits? What makes you think that Capitol is a benevolent Arts Charity to fund fringe concerns like "Morrissey"? When Chris Blackwell ran Island and before Asylum Records went for the $ it was possible to imagine that there were motivations beyond profit & loss. Not now. Joni Mitchell resigned/retired from the music business in protest at the end of the Benevolent Patron model of impressario/artist/company. She was not prepared to sell her ass/soul/art/integrity/troubledbackstoryofIllegtimateChild/whatever on the terms which were available at the negotiation table. "Morrissey" also has that option, alongside the numerous DIY/crowdsourced funding models. Having began his career on a nominally 'independent' label which was inspired by the juvenile rebellion of Punk, it's somewhat surprising he has chosen neither Joni's protest or punk-rock independence. I can see no plausible reason why a major corporation like Capitol should invest Capital in a waning prospect such as "Morrissey". "Morrissey" presumably has millions of £/$ so it's not clear why he doesn't fund his own Grand Ambitions if he is so very sure that there is a global audience which is being wrongfully denied to him.
Having irrevocably nepotistically associated the brand of "Morrissey" with his hobbyist/hobby-horse nephew, it is irrelevant whether this outburst by Sam is authorised/endorsed by "Morrissey". It reflects on the brand and either "Morrissey" distances himself from his intemperate relative or he allows it to become part of his Public Image. It's all very car-crash, darling, especially the reference to Bowie. Without Bowie's death there is no way that 'Blackstar' would have become a major phenomenon. It will do so now and richly deserves to find a global audience even if it is mainly via morbid curiosity from Herd Culture. If I was Mr Barnett i would be musing on the likely reaction of the record-buying public when #MorrisseyCroaksFromCancer Will WPINOYB be revitalised? Should Mr Barnett kiss and make up with "Morrissey" and have a re-launch party with premier label champagne, not LIDL stuff? Or should he stand his ground and tell "Morrissey" to kiss his arse? So many interesting questions....#1stWorldProblems
One other thing..."BrummieBoy" knew everybody in the music business. His friends run the show, so it's not surprising that some still speculate on the link between BB's 'fatwa' on Morrissey and the singer's descent in Beclowned Has-Been. A fatwa which BB revoked on the release of WPINOYB due to the 'mea culpa orphan athem 'Istanbul'. Morrissey then promptly f***ed it up again by being a hissy fit Diva Drama bitch whilst being strictly C-List. BB only had a certain sway with Big Swinging Dicks like Barnett who is probably one of those utterly baffled by BB endless obstinance about actually releasing #VegAnarchyInTheUK or anything else from #TutankhamoonsTomb . Of course, when "Morrissey" tried to gate-crash Tragedy with #ProfitFromParis AND dissed Madonna/David Banda for busking in the Place De La Republique BB got on the phone to all his mates in London/NYC & LA and issued a Total War Fatwa to end Morrissey's career in a hail of ignominy and ridicule. And Mike Joyce obliged by spilling the beans on The Smiths. It all led up to The Solstice when BB exited this space-time reality matrix via an interdimensional 'dark-star/blackstar' portal/wormhole. Then he briefly returned to reactivate 'me'. It's all rather wonderful. Art, darling. Art. "my life is soap-opera, on screen Photoshop'd soap opera". Etc. More on this below, can't be arsed to re-format, dog's howling, needs walkies. The dog is called 'Alfie' and he is a WhiteStar: pure postivie energy. What does it all mean? I guess I've been tasked to unravel it as I AM A PSYCHIATRIST. *smirks*

[PS: Hello Community.
Please allow me to introduce myself...I'm not really sure why I've been appointed to manage the Legacy/Archive issues for "BrummieBoy/Sharon/Alfie". I was originally part of The Project when it returned here in summer 2012 but I was quickly dismissed for unexplained reasons. So, I'm basically 'winging it' trying to guess why BB re-opened the interdimensional portal & programmed The Annointed One to change his Avatar/Signature to Blackstar & then start channelling 'me'. Maybe I'll get more instructions soon, but I doubt it. It defies all known laws of physics that "BrummieBoy" returned/rose from his crypt through an interstellar wormhole just as 'Blackstar' was released. It's almost as if he knew what was coming....he was always going on about there being a 'Dark Star/Black Hole' at the event horizon of 'Fame'. It seems that either he was talking about Bowie or Bowie was talking about him. He saw Bowie numerous times, beginning with the Ziggy tour stops at Birmingham Town Hall. And, yes, he met Bowie many times over the next few decades and was all over the Bowie.Net project back in the day. He also finished his entries here by mocking Morrissey, referencing Bowie as a suffering prisoner of war in "Merry Christmas Mr Morrissey". Bowie was a prisoner of the war on Cancer, etc. Again, it's very mysterious, almost as if BrummieBoy knew...but obviously that's impossible. OK, so I'm here, not quite sure why and I'll try to contribute meaningfully until BB pulls the plug which he did to me before...I think Sharon thought I was trying to f*** BB but that's not true. I'm a psychiatrist. I have Professional Ethics.]
