...you kids can fight off the whole fake-setlist cliche thing.

Is this concert going to be broadcast on a radio station in Israel, does anyone know?

Hi,

Just got back from the gig - a very good one as usual with no special surprises in the setlist.
Morrissey was friendly and said a few words in Hebrew; however, he "runied" 'irish blood' with a
wrong timing when joining the band and during 'life is a pigsty' his voice was not totally OK and he himself pointed towards his throat when it happened.
My highlights: Stop me, please please please, boy happy, The Loop & There is a light.

Set list - not necessarily in the right order:
Last Of The Famous International Playboys
Ask
First Of The Gang To Die
I Just Want To See The Boy Happy
Sister, I'm A Poet
Vicar In A Tutu
Irish Blood, English Heart
The World Is Full Of Crashing Bores
Stop me if you think...
That's How People Grow Up
All you need is me
Why Don't You Find Out For Yourself?
The Loop
You Say You Don't Love Me (Buzzcocks cover)
I'm Throwing My Arms Around Paris
Mama Lay Softly On The Riverbed
Please, please, please, let me get what I want
Death Of A Disco Dancer
Life is a pigsty
How Soon Is Now?
Encore: There is a light that never goes out

Can you post the *real* setlist like now?
Please!

I don't remember the actual order too well, but the following songs were played:

Last Of The Famous International Playboys
Ask
First Of The Gang To Die
I Just Want To See The Boy Happy
That's How People Grow Up
Irish Blood, English Heart
Vicar In A Tutu
Why Don't You Find Out For Yourself?
Sister, I'm A Poet
I'm Throwing My Arms Around Paris
Mama Lay Softly On The Riverbed
Stop Me If You've Heard This One Before
Everyday Is Like Sunday
The Loop
The World Is Full Of Crashing Bores
Death Of A Disco Dancer
You Say You Don't Love Me
All You Need Is Me
Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want
Life Is A Pigsty
How Soon Is Now?
Encore: There Is A Light That Never Goes Out

The intro was Imperfect List and the outro was That's Life. The crowd was warm and loud and Moz seemed to appreciate it and enjoy the concert, even though his voice wasn't in a very good shape (he started Irish Blood terribly off-tune and couldn't reach the high notes in Life Is A Pigsty). He made a remark regarding Siouxsie's cancellation along the lines of "Our friend Siouxsie was supposed to be with us here tonight. But she isn't. I don't know why. She doesn't know why." After introducing the band (as "the conqusitadores") he proceeded to sing a-cappella the first two lines of Seasick, Yet Still Docked, and ended it with "yet I'm here". When he came back from the encore he picked a big sign from someone in the crowd saying "you are our light that never goes out", showed it to the crowd, and proceeded to play There Is A Light. Some lyrical changes that were new to me: All You Need Is Me ended with "you're gonna miss me when I'm dead". Please Please Please ended with "Lord knows it's impossible". Going out from the concert I spotted a truck of Israeli radio station Galatz, so the show was probably taped. No idea if it was broadcasted live or if and when it's supposed to be broadcasted. That's all. Going to sleep.

There is a light

It was such a great show, although he came on only around 22:10.
He spoke a lot in between songs and gave us some words in Hebrew as well.
The best surprises of the night were Everyday is like Sunday and there is a light, I have filmed both and will upload to youtube shortly.

Oh and before the show I was one of the 10 lucky fans to meet the man, it was so surreal!

morrissey is the king!
what a great show! i am speechless....

set list was as in recent shows, but in the end, after a fan gave him a sign that says ; "you are our light that never goes out" they played "there is a light ...."

best songs were (from my point of view) life is a pigsty (love this song!). during the song, morrissey almost lost his voice and at the end he just lay down on the floor for some time ...

also liked how soon is now with some great drum work at the end of the song.

long live the king!

in one word: AMAZING

No, thought not.
Some folk just have a yellow streak, can't be helped it's in the genes.

In Hebrew... but with some photos too:

Why do jews use their religion as their "nationality" too?

It's just a religion.

Strange people.

- not about your misinformed, partisan prejudices, you assholes.

Wonder why me thinks not
Give us three guesses
rene supports Palestine and Liverpool FOREVER!!!!
Up yours america.

Jesus Christ all their lives?

I can't.

what an excitement, i still dont believe that he actually was here. it was a fantastic show and (i saw him before in London). he was comunicative as usual, started the show singing a few lines from Siouxsie's song "israel", later on he wondered why she didnt come saying "a good friend is missing today i dont know why she dont know why". the audience was great and warm - most of them knew all the songs and the words even the ones from the new album (days of refusal) and at the end of the show he seemed to be very grateful when he thanked the audience.

For me that's Mozzer's call for peace to all!

Cheers everyone.

did he mention the large one in the room

Now I can say some words about the gig:

Well, I saw him at Leeds Festival (2004), at Efes Pilsen Festival (istanbul 2006) and yesterday in Tel-Aviv..hmm, I wonder if i'll get to see him in 2010 too;)

The gig was amazing. The setlist was brilliant, even better than the previous shows of Moz I've been to.
It was so amazing, seeing Moz from the front row, about 1.5-2 meters from you.. unbelievable (Though I saw him from the front row in Istanbul too, and the distance there was short too..but not as last night).
Luckily I avoided seeing the playlists of the last shows, so there were a lot of surprises for me :D

The pleasant surprise - "Sister, I'm a Poet" - one of my favorites!
truly awesome.

The outstanding performance - "How soon Is Now?" - total hysteria in the crowd, lots were crying, and the performance of Moz and the band was absolutely wicked. I could hear the improvement from the last years in performing this song..Boz's sound is getting closer and closer to Marr:guitar:

The Highlight Of The Evening - The Encore: Picking the sign from the crowd that said "You are the light that never goes out", the excitement of Morrissey from this gesture and the performance of the song -slower than the original, but what a performance! this is the definition of ENCORE :)

What can I say? i'll quote the fan who took Moz's mic at the midst of the show and shouted: "Thank you for coming, we love you!!!". Kitchy, but true.

P.S: Someone wrote in the forum that he'll probably do "Ask" which it's line ("if there's no love then it's the bomb...") is truly relevant for us now..
Well, he did that!and even changed the lyrics a bit ("if there's no love, than it's the NUCLEAR bomb that will bring us together") :D

It's nice to see that Morrissey hasn't turned into a jukebox! I like the way he changes the setlist around. I personally would hate to hear all the biggies every night.

Hope you guys will enjoy these:

Personally, I'm still emotional about the show last night. It was really something special...

Cheers.

To leave Jesse Tobias on a dark and dangerous street in the Gaza Strip?

(we can all hope for it anyway).

Thank you to YouTube uploader daphgl.

oh my god! to see morrissey is a dream! i can't even explain - so i won't even try to!
i threw him a cat doll - but i throw like the girl i am - and he catches like one......
but hay- a tall handsome guy was standing to my left - does anyone know who he is and how can i contact him? he's from herzlia - as far as i could talk to him...

I wonder if Morrissey is having a nice time with his favourite actor Lior Ashkenazi. They are lucky to be on the right side of the border though.

ahhh "god bless israel"?

your voice is graet as always and the songs are great.

and to all who said bad things about israel, you know nothing about the situation here, so keep quiet.

keep posting st lists when they've alreaady been posted by countless other?

Morrissey switched back to The Imperfect List in the introduction just before he came on in Tel Aviv.

Wow that sounds like a great show!

c'mon now... does anybody who posts on here come from Israel??

"How Soon Is Now" without Pigsty?

That doesn't sound right.

you forgot IFGGATDJSKDNSXZXAWK

If this is real, I'm a banana.

Asshat.

The thing is, you would have far more validity if you did'nt write in such a ridiculous manner. its like reading some sort of scripture

You're trying to be clever, but it's not quite coming off for you
