Decent show but Moz was rolled out on a gurney with a drip attached to his left arm. Voice sounded good though.

      This was a truly great show, marred only by the sound problems (Right hand pa cut out twice at least, but fairly quickly restored)
      Morrissey clearly enjoying performing to a very welcoming and responsive crowd. Highlights for me were Ganglord, Cemetry Gates, Education and Is it Really so Strange?!! Please don't retire Morrissey, nights like tonight makelife worth living. xxx

            Just got home. Really good show tonight. The crowd were really up for it. I don't know how i stayed on my feet during some songs, the crowd surges were mad. Moz seemed to be having a good time. Wish he'd played Life is a Pigsty tho. But hey ho, an amazing night nevertheless.

              Morrissey in good form coupled with a very responsive crowd made for a very enjoyable night in Leeds.

                Fabulous solid gig. Moz was in good humour and great voice. Gave a lot of handshakes although wasn't overly chatty...wonderful intimate venue too. Couldn't ask for more really.

                  Moz was clearly having a whale of a time, and clearly enjoying the crowd, who went absolutely nuts, especially towards the end. Highlight for me was Teenage Dad - what a great song. Anyone else remember him say "Home Is A Question Mark" just before The Loop?

                  of being nearer the front. The place was absolutely crammed last night and somehow being nearer the back you felt a bit cut off from the fun! Great venue - not changed much since T&C days. Suprised nobody has commented on how brief the set was! £37 for just over an hour was a bit much I thought. Enjoyed 'Is it really so strange?' and 'Teenage Dad..' but not the most inspired set list.

                  My mate is the General Manager of the venue so I got a fantastic spot in the restricted bit of the balcony stage left. Thought it was a cracking gig, but over rather quickly.

                  Stood next to me on the balcony was Morrissey's personal assistant. I gave her my copy of Dickie Felton's "The Day I Met Morrissey" and asked her if she could get Morrissey to sign it on my photo in the book, which she said she'd try and do. When he came off stage she took it to him but unfortunately came back rather quickly saying that he wouldn't sigh it because, and this is no word of a lie, David Sultan is thanked at the back of the book. Seriously.

                  Still, I got a nice tour laminate at the end of the night.

                  Why Such a Similar Setlist to the last tour? (Score:0)
                  I thought he was promoting Swords...

                  I like the b-sides but most of the set is the same as the last one.

                  Any thoughts as to why?

                  Do you think this tours setlist will change drastically as it progresses?

                  Im a newbie so gentle please...gig was amazing..having been at the Apollo for his birthday shenanigans, I decided to take the balcony view and let the blokes touch him a bit more this time! As much as I love being down the front, it does get a bit intense for a wee lass like me on my own!

                  I hear people's rants about the obscure setlists, but lets face it, if he played the crowdpleasers gig after gig, no matter how loved, you would want more! Luckily M has a vast collection he can pick and choose from for your listening pleasure..

                  felt he was very witty with his 'lovely lovely lovely Leeds' (now there's a song title crying out to be sung) and also his asking if we thought it would be easy being up on stage..well YOU do it then :) Welcome back!

                  As well as Morrissey lets not forget the amazing band he has too..they did a great job!

                  To all the people yet to see him on this gig, enjoy x
