Old School of Rock

Even retro is retro nowadays, so the fact that Anderson's Fifth Estate continues to exist despite everything from trout and cougar conventions to lost dale-boys wearing guyliner is testament to the nightclub's longevity.

Even retro is retro nowadays, so the fact that Anderson's Fifth Estate continues to exist despite everything from trout and cougar conventions to lost dale-boys wearing guyliner is testament to the nightclub's longevity.

But if Manchester copped the name of his club night from the Smiths song -- and we say he did -- does that qualify Morrissey and Marr for golden-oldie geezerdom? Holy shit, we need a highball and a hip replacement.
