Have you read Ada Calhoun’s St Marks is Dead? One of my favourite New York books.

Simple Minds. That Alan McGhee line about preferring them “when they thought they were German” is great but then you think “yeah, but what about Promised You A Miracle?” All got a bit meh later, but some of the early 80s stuff still sounds good (especially after a couple of glasses).

The book Operation Julie by Golygydd Lyn Ebenezer (as in “Julie’s Been Working For The Drug Squad”) is worth hunting down.

Torn between Fire Engines and Subway Sect. Ha, actually this isn’t one of those “choose one” things, is it? I can go to both!

Never really quite connected with either of them to be honest. Johnny Marr seems a good sort though and always has nice things to say about Will, so I’m going Smiths.
