Music, music, and maybe some other madness from the fingers of the Edmonton Journal's pop/rock critic. (Or "music writer," as I'm officially titled.)

Rourke 'n' roll
Here's another segue from The Shins ... James Mercer is good friends with Isaac Brock of Modest Mouse. Guitarist Johnny Marr was a temporary Mouse ... but, of course, he's better known for his work with The Smiths ... which also featured bassist Andy Rourke, who now works as a DJ for Xfm in Manchester, England.
He'll be spinning tonight at Brixx Bar & Grill, 10030 102nd Street. Doors open at 8 p.m. Upstairs, Champion will be performing in The Starlite Room.
One of my fave Rourke bassline (and Smiths song):
