A 30th anniversary celebration of the formation of The Smiths will kick off in Manchester's Holden Gallery next week with an artistic extravaganza titled The Gospel According To. The exhibit, which sounds more like an art festival of sorts, will include artistic interpretations of Smiths songs & photos (including the Stephen Wright fan photos taken last weekend), screenings of bootleg footage of early Smiths performances, panel discussions (one such panel examines a conspiracy theory which suggests that The Queen Is Dead foretold Princess Diana's tragic death), and a "live music event" organized by ex-Smiths drummer Mike Joyce. More events to commemorate the anniversary are also being organized for later in the year.
