So all of the albums get a picture from 2006? Whether it's a new release or a vintage re-release, it's all 2006.
I guess I agree that he looked his best in that era, very distinguished. It just makes no sense to do with an album from the early-90s. The world of Morrissey is a strange place.
Good times, for a change! Now PLEASE just self publish. For a guy who relishes disrupting the status quo, he is unbelievably mired in the traditions of the music business.
So, Moz is locked away in the alps, recuperating from whatever. Rather than using words to announce something, someone in his camp uses low-effort MS Paint level editing to put out a vague message. I'm going to assume this is another petty swipe at Capitol. I'll believe Bonfire is here when it's...
It's all quite disheartening.
I'm assuming that exhaustion is a euphemism for depression. Dealing with depression is so difficult. It is probably safe to say that many people on this board have dealt with the "black dog" before. God knows I have.
I saw seven shows last year, SLO, 4/5 in Vegas...
This is just sad. Morrissey has been my favorite living artist and performer for ages. He's beginning to remind me of my favorite deceased one.
Is this what fans were whispering to each other in 1974, College Park, Maryland, as the wheels REALLY started to come off for Elvis Presley? I know...
I was at Morrissey's first show after the 2016 election, November 9 if I recall. Grand Sierra casino, Reno. He opened with "Trump-shifters of the World Unite." Said, "We're screwed, we're screwed, we're screwed," many times during the show in his staccato way.
I don't think Moz is MAGA...
All in the Family was an adaptation of a British sitcom. He was groundbreaking here in the States. There was nothing else so brash and controversial on television here in the early 1970's.
Now THIS is exciting. Only thing that would make it better is if Alain Whyte and/or Boz came back in for those shows.
I'm going to be in the Caribbean that week, otherwise I'd be booking a flight from SFO right now.
On the subject of residencies: I attended eight of the Viva Moz Vegas concerts, four from each year. Really enjoyed myself, but having been there and spent the money (twice!) it would have been better had there been some variation in the setlist.
I completely understand, especially in a place...
Hearing that booming from the Caesars Palace marquee when I was in town for the residency was a real treat. Veronica is my favorite of the new songs, I couldn't help but smile every time I heard it that week.
I end today with a better feeling about Morrissey's situation than I had this morning. His acknowledgement of a buyback being possible (even likely?) is heartening.
Moz looked good, came off as odd and witty as ever. Didn't say anything to rile up the usual critics. It was a good day. I want...
I wanted so badly to make the trip to Memphis. My two favorite artists colliding for one night. Couldn't swing it with work.
Seriously, if you've never been to Graceland it is incredible. So much more than just the house.
For all of the (often justified) negativity about Morrissey's seeming inability to make his shows, it's good to see some actual business getting done. Postponed has been another word for canceled far too often.
The rumor and innuendo about some new management seems more real now. All I want...
I remember a time when artists were distant individuals whose work you could admire and then move on. Relentless purity tests take away from the enjoyment of art. I've never looked at a sculpture and thought, "It's great, but what are the sculptors views on immigration?" Frankly, I don't care...
Wow. Some exciting destinations. I've been spoiled over the last several years with so many concerts in California and Nevada, nice to see Moz and the crew getting out more.
Also happy to see the lineup stable for now. I miss Alain and Gustavo, but stability is a good thing.
The setlists were about 20-22 songs until pretty recently. Pre-covid, I think. They started dropping to 18ish around the first Viva Moz Vegas shows. I saw four shows from each Caesars residency plus the San Louis Obispo, Oakland, and San Francisco gigs in the last two years and it seems to be...
