MOZZZZ!!!!

  • Morrissey schedules a fall US tour that includes four nights in SF, five nights in NY, and ten—count ’em!—ten nights at the Palladium in Los Angeles! (CMJ)

  • Amy Winehouse calls off her fall North American tour, set to begin September 8th in Toronto, with the dates to possibly be rescheduled in 2008. Or not! Who knows! She’s nuts! Refunds available at point of purchase. (Billboard)

  • Kanye West responds to the 50 Cent September 11th album release date rivalry with a “thank you.” Take that. (MTV News)

  • The Jesus & Mary Chain will return to the studio and record an album, their first since 1998, and have booked some US shows in October. (Filter Magazine)

  • New sculpture celebrates Russia’s love for The Beatles, or something? (NME)

  • Wedding DJs: not dead! (Idolator)

    HERE ARE THE FACTS:

    Our fall fundraising drive is off to a rough start, and we very much need to raise $250,000 in the next couple of weeks. If you value the journalism you get from Mother Jones, please help us do it with a donation today.

    As we wrote over the summer, traffic has been down at Mother Jones and a lot of sites with many people thinking news is less important now that Donald Trump is no longer president. But if you're reading this, you're not one of those people, and we're hoping we can rally support from folks like you who really get why our reporting matters right now. And that's how it's always worked: For 45 years now, a relatively small group of readers (compared to everyone we reach) who pitch in from time to time has allowed Mother Jones to do the type of journalism the moment demands and keep it free for everyone else.

    Please pitch in with a donation during our fall fundraising drive if you can. We can't afford to come up short, and there's still a long way to go by November 5.
