Who is Gary Powell? Who is Morrissey?
OK, there ya go. The best way to get some ink (or type) if you’re basically no one is to throw a punch at a legend and watch that radiate through the media. I am here to assist Mr. Powell on his pathetic attempt at fame.
As the drummer of The Libertines (who?..yeah where have they been since 2002? Oh wait..yeah perpetual junky issues) he has a big mouth and a predictable beat. Here is what went down.
'You know what it's like, people like the music but they also like the characters behind the music. If it's music by itself, the music needs to be damn good. To retain some kind of anonymity behind everything, your music has to be damn good.'
Spurred on by Babyshambles drummer, Adam Ficek, (also playing at the gig) who stated 'Morrissey can do that', Gary Powell continued:
'No he can't. Morrissey created a character and everybody jumped on board, and then he kind of went into his little cave. I'm not a big Morrissey fan. When I played with the New York Dolls, Morissey ignored me at sound-check, and then we had a big meet and greet with everybody, and I was stood next to David Johansen from the New York Dolls, it was literally like meeting the queen, but Morrissey stopped at Johansen, chatted to him for a bit and then walked away. Morrissey, is a knob. He's an absolute prick.'
Morrissey is a knob for not bowing to the drummer of a half baked band of no ones who are always either ‘headed to the studio’, ‘heading to rehab’ or ‘heading to jail’.
Here's a tissue.
Morrissey has earned the right to be a prick, a knob and dare I say a flaming douche bag should he chose to behave as such. Mr. Powell has opted to portray himself as a slighted little boy with two sticks and no future. Who’s the knob?
