Morrissey got screwed by the judge, Joyce cashed a 10% check over and over , so he agreed it was 10%, US law. STUPIDITY isn't a defense.
Isn't he crazy already? How much more batshit can the guy go?moz will probably go crazy when he sees this.
Because they were mates? They were young kids from a working class neighborhood. They had no reason to believe that Morrissey was sneaking out of recording sessions to have secret meetings with Geoff Travis, just to ensure he was getting more money than his band mates. The fact that Joyce and Rourke did not sign these contracts shows that it is quite plausible that they had no idea they were getting less.
Look, many tried to explain it to you but you just can't grasp it.
Rourke and Joyce DIDN'T have the same reins of power in all finances within The Smiths. They ONLY complained about live fees and mechanical royalties. If you are a frontman, you have much more on your shoulder, more responsibility, more work, more time invested etc. In return you get much more from songwriting royalties (financially) and you get much more recognition (morally). Robbing the rhytm section on live and mechanical royalties is pitiful and pathetic and makes you seem you are a greedy bastard.
it's true.... unfortunately!!
Fingers crossed he'll die soon.

It takes a very sick man to be able to say this kind of thing over and over again. Emotionally damaged, complete lack of empathy, oblivious to any social, moral or ethical codes that tells us that it is not ok to say these kinds of things.
You would benefit from a complete and thorough mental examination. I also wouldn't mind a police investigation - you do seem quite unstable, extremely hostile and possibly potentially dangerous. A mentally unstable, hateful, hostile butcher with no moral fibre. Scary stuff.
OnT:
Joyce should've been happy with his 10%. Seems reasonable for a drummer with no other duties whatsoever. And with no contract it should've been a no-case.
No he didn't, it was the law. Why don't you understand that? As I said above, you got a problem, go argue with the judge, or do you prefer laws you make up? The appeal also failed.
You don't get it do you Gregor ?

what's good for the goose is good for the gander
What is good for a woman is equally good for a man; or, what a woman can have or do, so can a man have or do. This comes from an earlier proverb, “What’s sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander.”
What is good for one type is equally good for another type, despite any irrelevant differences between the types.

Couldn't have put it better!!! Was Joyce greedy or just thick? Cheers to his pub gig , weddings next!And your constant and ridiculous claim that Tge Smiths will one day have a reunion is an EPIC fail. Joyce may have won in court, but he f***ed up any chance of a career. This New Years Eve he will be deejaying in a pub in Chorlton whilst Morrissey plays in LA. Let's hope it was all worth it. Let's hope Joyce is enjoying that double garage of his.
The Smiths is dead - long live Moz.
Hang the DJ, hang the DJ hang the DJ.
I think time has proven that while yes, the frontman has a lot on his shoulders, if he plays no instruments, and writes no music, then there is a lot on the shoulders of his bandmates as well. The band has slid into decline as evidenced by plodders like, oh, at least the last two albums. (Generously speaking)
They have their moments, but YOR was dreck from start to finish.
He's probably going to steal the idea like he did with that Queen photoshop picture.moz will probably go crazy when he sees this.
It seems they all shared the same accountants and lawyers and Mike should have gotten a lawyer before he did.

This drivel doesn't help you, I'm afraid.
Johnny said over and over again that Mike and Andy knew it because he told them all the specifications. Johnny said it was their agreement that Mike and Andy get less money but also have less work and less responsibilities. So, do you say that Johnny is a liar? Because most people here constantly go on about how sincere Johnny Marr is. Surely he wouldn't lie in such an important case, wouldn't he?
No, that's not at all what I was saying. Go back and read it a few times over, or make someone read it for you.Take the easy way and give in your all the same in the cult aren't you ?
So Silly Steven can come out with ridiculous statements but God forbid anyone else eh !
Oh I get it now thanks.

Actually Mike is doing in Italy on NYE as he did last year too, getting paid handsomely too.
Can you imagine what he'd be earning if he was playing a Smiths gig though? He f***ed up.
