The Drums To Play Morrissey Tribute Night In London

March 11, 2010
The Drums To Play Morrissey Tribute Night In LondonSeemingly big fans of The Mozfather, The Drums are set to play a DJ set at a Morrissey tribute night in London next month.

Members of the Brooklyn foursome will man the decks at Viva Moz III, which celebrates the music of Morrissey and The Smiths, at Bourne & Hollingsworth on Rothbourne Place on April 2nd.

As well as providing an insight into The Drums' record collection, Mrs Morrissey, Miss Wilde and guests will perform live while there will be a Morrissey doppelgänger competition.

Intriguingly, there will be a Morrissey shrine erected especially for the event.
