Well not that most of you will care (although around here you never know :) ) but Kristeen Young got fired from being Morrissey's opener. He now is opening with Girlfriend in a Coma. Theyre quite a bit better than KY anyway. Apparently at her Tuesday night show that I was at, she made some offhanded comments that deeply offended him.
Anyway - Im seriously considering finding a ticket for Halloween. Tonights show and Saturday nights show were beyond brilliant. Morrissey is in top form that no one will want to miss. Highlights were "tomorrow", "interesting drug", "girlfriend in a coma", and so many more. Security is as tight as ever, so if youre planning on getting onstage - good luck! :)

I heard she said "Morrissey likes to give oral…I mean, cunnilingus."

This is what I hate about Morrissey. He's such a precious, pissy queen. He's like a sexually defunct Axl Rose. Big deal! So his opening act busted his balls! Morrissey is just as sad a pathetic as the Stones, Dylan, Springsteen, Smashing Pumpkins, The Police, etc. touring on past glories and fans who are so socially inept and devoted that they don't know the difference. He can retire for all I care. His last great album was what, fifteen years ago (Vauxhall and I)? Let him retire to Italy like a greying Norma Desmond and have him tend to his Gladiolus. I actually like Kristeen Young a lot more after this. What do I suggest you "take" for the DAR show? A good book.

I am a little put out by this comment. I'm socially adept (honest!). Also, has Morrissey been spotted with any gladioli in 20 years? Lazy . . .predictable . . .
I like all Morrissey's albums, although some more than others. Am I so devoted that I don't know the difference? I don't think so.
For example, Maladjusted is by no means a classic album, but Trouble Loves Me is one of my favorite songs.
In any case, Kristeen Young was absolutely unlistenable . . .good riddance as far as I am concerned.

No, it was three years ago (You Are The Quarry). And I'm by no means a Moz fanboy.

I take offense to this comment. You're no longer talking about music but implying that you hate Morrissey because of whatever his sexuality may or may not be. And that doesn't sit well with me AT ALL. Don't let your ignorance stray beyond your taste (or lack of) in music. Antagonize and provide an unbalanced opinion if you must, but don't make personal attacks in a homophobic way.

if you hate everything we talk about - why the fuck do you bother to keep on posting. i am really offended with your bullshit. what do you care about what us fans like. i will say one thing - i met some of the nicest, friendliest people at the shows that i saw. we all had a good head on our shoulders. i met a woman from sweden who has seen about 15 of his shows in europe and over here on this tour. she had a room next to morrissey at one of his hotels. and before you go on about how obsessive she is - shes married with a daughter, and they are vacationing in nyc around his tour. her daughter she felt was too young to be standing in the front with her - so she was seeing the lion king. she also bought morrissey chocolates which he thanked her for.
my point is - the fans care about him - and we dont give a shit if he's bi, asexual or whatever he is or isnt. his music changed my life in high school (i dont even wanna hear your bullshit remarks on it - i just dont care). i meet complete strangers who look out for you at a show when youre likely to be stampeded. i saw people collapsing right and left because of the insanity and we all stood together and helped. dont get me wrong - i dont think only morrissey fans do that - but i do think we have a strong allegiance.
and you should just f'ing leave. and last i checked i was far from socially inept - as im sure most of the other fans are. perhaps you really need to listen to him - as i think youre the one who is really socially inept. maybe you can learn something. lets start with the below.
'its so easy to laugh, its so easy to hate, it takes strength to be gentle and kind' (end of rant)
and hoya (or whoever posted) thanks for the heads up on the morrissey tix. ill see if its possible that i could get down there in time.
any word on 'there is a light…'?? he was playing it at the beginning of his tour - but no more :(

I vote that from here on out we just ignore Brian Wallace. Don't acknowledge his posts, don't add fuel to his little fire. Just pretend he's not here. Eventually he'll go away. He doesn't have the guts to reply to my post, so it just goes to show what a pussy he really is. And I don't have the time for idiots like him.
Let's get back to Morrissey. I will be there Friday, cannot wait. With all of the b.s. going on in my life (insane stuff at work, mom in the hospital, etc.) it will be great to see a show I'm genuinely excited about.

It's not something worth replying to, "Bear Man." What I said was not homophobic. I can't really be bothered with you feigning outrage over something that doesn't exist. You're just looking to start conflict. I simply stated that this is another instance of Morrissey acting like a five year-old brat who doesn't get his way.
