'New recording information' on ROTT cover in Italy + free poster

I've just got home from a 'Feltrinelli' Media store in italy. The ROTT CD it's already available in the digipack DVD combo version.

The sticker on cover says that it contains a DVD with the YHKM video and two more 'behind the scenes' footages and also a free poster.

The 'italian recording information' on the cover under the title with a really small font, reads as follows:

'Registrato e mescolato a Roma in autunno' which means: 'Recorded and mixed in Rome in autumn'. A little more correct than the previous: 'Registrato e mescolato a Roma estate' which badly translates: 'Recorded and mixed in Rome during the summer'... but still terrible Italian: you just don't use 'mescolato' with that meaning.

The price? 17,99 €

"The mystery and magic of Morrissey" - EDP24

The mystery and magic of Morrissey by Chris Tracy - EDP24

Excerpt:

April 1, 2006

When tickets for Morrissey's forthcoming gig at the King's Lynn Corn Exchange went on sale back in January, they sold out in little over an hour. This is perhaps not surprising. After all, in 1992 he sold out Los Angeles' Hollywood Bowl in 23 minutes, beating a sales record previously held by the Beatles.

But if it seems a little incongruous that, having played vast arenas and festivals, including Glastonbury during his last UK tour in 2004, he should promote his new album Ringleader of the Tormentors with visits to rather more intimate venues, those who have followed this mercurial Mancunian's career will probably agree that it is entirely fitting.

Morrissey has always done things differently...

Long Pig boycotts "Life Is A Pigsty", claims unfair on pigs

To use the title "Life Is A Pigsty" is keeping the myth going that pigs are dirty stupid animals.

They like a bit of mud, chill.. Otherwise they are very clever...
