Morrissey will curate this year's Meltdown festival, which takes place at London's South Bank Centre between the 11th and 27th of June.

He will programme the entire event, and will essentially be able to create his dream festival line up. Past curators include Nick Cave, John Peel, David Bowie and Lee 'Scratch' Perry.

Morrissey has told Time Out that "This year's Meltdown will be the best - very loud, very entertaining and very funny."

The line up will be announced over the next six weeks.

Hmmm, chances of Morrissey offering us a gig are pretty skinny. I can dream, though.

Might buy a ticket - it's Morrissey, man! MORRISSEY!
