My girlfriend and I waited in line starting at noon, and that was incredible, although a little tiring.
The setlist wasn't TOTALLY different, but we did get GIRLFRIEND IN A COMA! Also Please Please Please in the encore.
Two shirts thrown out, and my friend and I got a whole cuff and some of the sleeve, and my girl got the buttonholes. A black Gucci shirt, and it smells a little like incense in Catholic Mass, mixed with a bit of perfume.
Morrissey seemed in a pretty damn good mood, and even sang a little of "Unhappy Birthday" when he first came out. No stage crashers, but a lot of shook hands. Quite a few birthday cards made their way onstage too. It felt much more like a party than I expected.
Pretty much one of the best nights of my entire life. Maybe you'll see me at the Uptown tomorrow? Mayyyybe.
IN FUCKING CREDIBLE.

Great Concert !!! (Score:0)
Furthermore, he felt so comfortable that he actually handed his microphone to a girl in the front row, and a young man there too---let them say what they wished.
In addition, I remember reading that "How Soon is Now" was not good with Moz solo band--I thought it sounded awesome.
Also like his reference to the bar/restaurant Blueberry Hill--stating he still hasn't found his thrill on Blueberry hill, but has 2 years left to do so---lol. I guess Moz cannot picture life after 50.
Last night was much more than I could have hoped for. Even my wife, who is very objective, said she thought it was a great show. I feel sorry for you guys in KC tonight, he has to be drained after his effort here in St. Louis. Hello to all of you & I appreciate all of your story's and comments on this site--take care, Steve.

Had an awesome time last night, last time I saw Moz was in 1992 in Nashville. I was blown away by the Smiths songs.
Had two drunken idiots in front of me in the balcony though!

Great birthday show (Score:0)
Second, the set list was amazing, and Moz seemed to be having a great time. Constant smiles, looks to the crowd. During "National Front Disco," with the crowd singing along, Moz put on this very amused look when everyone bursted out with the line "England for the English!" I guess he found it somewhat funny that a room full of Americans could belt out that line so forcefully. His facial expressions were equally charming when he was taking the birthday cards.
One funny part was when Moz was lying on the stage floor near the end of "Life is a Pigsty," and one of the security guards up front turned around and looked quizzically at what was going on. He seemed equally perplexed when he saw that the row in front of him...who had been quiet and polite before Moz came on...suddenly erupted into sing-alongs like "Let Me Kiss Youuuuu...Ohhhhhh" when the show began.

Did anyone see the sign outside the venue stating "As per the artisits request no food will be allowed in the building"? Was it to prevent a multitude of fans from bringing birthay cakes? I still have videos to publish plus pics and vids from Denver (soooooon).

Observations from a first timer (Score:1)
I must say that Morrissey is either the biggest phony on the planet or he has a genuine, heartfelt affection for his audience and performing in general. I have to suspect the latter. I was most pleasantly surprised by his congenial nature and his tendency to speak with the crowd as opposed to speaking at us. For whatever reason, in my younger days I always got the impression that Moz was a very private individual, disinterested in the fans and driven only by the perfection of his craft (not unlike the rap appropriately bestowed upon the late Miles Davis). Tuesday night completely divested me of that impression. It was a genuine thrill to watch the man work. And the band was extremely fan friendly as they closed down the show, taking their time departing the stage and being sure to exhaust whatever supply of stage souvenirs they had available - it was a veritable shower of 'sticks and picks!
The most uplifting thing that I took away from this show was the fact that nine of the songs he performed were from his last two albums and seven of those were from his most recent work. And they were show-carriers, not simply obligatory filler necessary to sell some cd's. The fact that he can build a show around so much new material gives me great hope that he is going to be a musical force in the studio and on the stage for years to come. Not so far from 48 myself (okay, well a "mere" nine years, anyway), I can say that Moz is certainly spry enough to keep up the pace for a good long time without turning himself into a caricacture of his former self or a museum piece for his original fans' kids and grandkids like a number of touring acts that refuse to go gracefully into that good night and be satisfied with the residuals from album sales and classic rock airplay. I am pleased to say that Morrissey remains not only relevant but downright vibrant. I look forward to his future St. Louis appearances.

Impressive (Score:0)
I probably liked this one the best, since I was able to get the setlist. The other times I've seen him, I was a bit lost by the songs I didn't know. This time, I was able to sing along to every song. My wife, who didn't not want to look at the setlist, got all jazzed only on the songs that she knew from the pre-1991 Morrissey/Smiths era.
I was a bit surprised there were no stage jumpers. At the 1991 show, it seemed that Morrissey reveled in the people (boys and girls)who were coming up onstage to hug/kiss him. I guess it gets a bit old as he continues to tour. In any case, I guess I'm glad noone tried to get on stage, since it might have caused him to leave the show.
I'm not gay, but damn Morrissey was smokin'. Nice to see he is getting more and more distinguished looking as he gets older. Some people (Rolling Stones) just seem to get older and scarier. Morrissey, on the other hand, just looks fantastic.
Thanks for the wonderful show.
