Just happened, Morrissey charming as ever, Café Tacuba totally meriting.

interesting news...lovs the moz...lovs cafe tacvba...

I loved the way he pronounced 'Leyenda'. He did it in his best Latino accent. Good job!

Someone should give Morrissey and award for being so well dressed. Wow.

-Eduardo

i just saw it and all i can say is wow!!!
damn it im so proud to be a mexican!!! :)
the hispanic community embraces him so much!!! :)

In their speech Cafe Tacuba thanked Mozzer w/o naming him. They said "We'd like to thank those that influenced us.."(pointing to Mozzer) and of course they thanked their fans.

Hm, I thought one of the things that Mozzer said the most when he did interviews for "Refusal" was that all awards should be banned and that awards are "destroying music, almost".
Well, not anymore apparently...

This is brilliant news! I would never have associated Morrissey with Cafe Tacuba but it's really happened and it's great!

Viva Mexico!!!

Can this be viewed anywhere online?

I'd say weird....

I love Morrissey's little teeth..... I wonder if he uses Euthymol toothpaste? If not, why not? UEuse it Moz!

And that's a fact

of Morrissey coming from behind the curtains, and
presenting the award?

btw shouldn't he be rehearsel in the UK, it's about time, a week or so, the first gig

Swords is 27 th , well 28 as musicshopdelivers don't like mondays

Bez did

On the radio they said he was hanging out with Pete Wentz. I guess they are friends.

Its easy to love Cafe Tacuba who wouldnt.... I does surprise me a bit though. I know Cafe Tacuba would be Morrissey fans but Morrissey. Awesome surprise!

I have it set to record the replay tomorrow..Placebo also performed for the show! I did not know this.

Poor Moz had to sit through that award show and listen to the most sh*ittiest pop music ever. I wonder if he left right after...I can't imagine Morrissey sticking around for Pitbull and Shakira.

Does anyone have a link from the actually part of the show insted of the AP news clip up on youtube?
That clip is good but I want to see how it all folded out and how the audience reacted when he walked out and when the band came on stage!

Well done Morrissey, a perfect presentation and you look superb . . . as always . . . see you Friday mon beau amor . . . oh and as always, at the starlight hour . . .

Ever since Cafe Tacvba began their career (around 20 yrs ago) they always said that their biggest influences were british rock artists such as The Smiths.... Some of their members even had bands that covered smiths songs... You just look the hairdo of two of them and they are very Morrissey alike, when Moz was more into the rockabilly look..... I think that they may have shitted their pants when they saw that morrissey was there presenting their award....
You should listen to Cafe Tacvba, 100% percent original music.....

It´s a little long to translate it, but since the introduction to Moz, by Zoe and Ximena Sariñana (Zoe is a cool Mexican band also influenced by Moz)....

please please please, anyone who's seen it, I need to know approx. when in the show Moz Appears. so I can run home to tape it. I can't be there through the whole show. Thanks.

One legend salutes another. 'This should be so'.

Hosanna!!

Aside from his adoration for L.A./Southern California fans & respect for Cafe Tacvba, I wonder if his appearance was a way to help boost ticket sales, since San Diego, Los Angeles, and Oakland tickets went on sale today.

Just wondering.

They be Morrissey/Smiths fans but half of the fans in the room just looked blank like 'Que es? Prince Charles? Pendeco! Donde esta Pedro Enfante?!!'

Sometimes the whole Morrissey/Mexican thing is just overrated. I was in Mexico recently and only a handful of people, maybe about 5 people, that I met had actually heard of him or knew the most popular songs.

It can be overrated.

i have no idea who these people are, but if Moz likes them, then i will check them out even though me no speaka da Spanish
still, its always rad to hear a crowd cheer for him!

Our Man looks fantastic!

worked with both Morrissey and Cafe Tacuba.

his style with clothes is pretty mint tbf
dare i say it the swords tour might run with a clean bill of health
very much looking forward to brum

Several nice pictures right here :

but I have a Latino/South American heritage anyways, I feel flattered and thankful that Morrissey has done a wonderful job of validating Latinos on occasions like these. If you ever read this post, thank you, Morrissey. You have never been, for a long time, confined to the British/European world and pop music. Last Night When I Spoke To Carol and Mexico are two songs that prove that.

This cant get any better..

He upstaged the band he was there to honor.

Try these great songs:
Como te Extraño (How much I Miss you): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uE1iqv1e47k [youtube.com]
El Baile y el Salón (The Dance and the Ballroom): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sl6Xyx5gERw [youtube.com]

These versions were recorded in Viña del Mar Festival (Chile), where I understand are as big as in Mexico....
