“A warm and engaging memoir” Guardian“A beautifully told odyssey” Daily Express“A brilliant book” Mark Ellen, Word in Your EarThe long overdue reflection of life in The Smiths from their legendary drummer.

As a band, the Smiths need no introduction. Formed in 1982 and disbanded in 1987, all four of their studio albums reached the top five in the UK charts. They are widely lauded as one of the most influential groups of all time.

Mike is the last member of the band to release their autobiography and this is his no-holds-barred story of what it was like to play the drums in the Smiths. Throughout his honest and witty reflections, Mike answers the question he and bassist Andy Rourke used to often ask each other: ‘Where did it all go right?’A lot of the Smiths’ past is already canonised. Rather than retelling those well-documented iconic moments, in The Drums, Mike conveys ‘the feeling’ of his time in the band. His off-piste, frank and witty perspective allows him to re-contextualise fan favourite moments through a beautifully vulnerable, human insight into his life.

The written history of the Smiths is not missing an encyclopedic account of everything that happened over the years; but Mike’s honest, entertaining and deeply human memoir is what Smiths fans have been waiting for. This book truly conveys what it felt like to be a member of the Smiths.

In The Drums, Mike Joyce finally gives us the perspective of the self-confessed biggest Smiths fan in the world who from the start was just some lad from the suburbs of Fallowfield who played the drums.

Thick, durable jeans for a good price!
Size: 34W x 34L, Color: Tinted Dark Wash
I bought these for my son. They fit well - true to size. They feel thick and durable. He says the fabric is a little stiff, which makes them wrinkle, so he doesn't wear them as often as some other jeans.

They are dark blue and are great especially for the price.
Size: 38W x 28L, Color: Tinted Dark Wash
They fit true to the size and the dark blue color is perfect...!!! I did wash them in hot water and put them in the dryer on low temperature before I wore them and they fit perfect. And I am 5'6" weight about 215lbs. I bought the 38 waste and 28 length and athletic fit stretch and they do stretch and I absolutely love them...!!!

Great jeans, waist is too high
Size: 40W x 30L, Color: Tinted Light Wash
These pants, so far, have been well made and are almost identical to Levi's 541 style jeans. They have almost the exact same fit and are comfortable. There is only one detractor, the waist is about an inch and a half too high. I compared it to my 541's and that is the only difference. I am glad I know about this now. Other than the waist height, I would absolutely buy these again.
