      just got back. they didn't play sunny, unfortunately. but they did play life's a pigsty and otherwise, pretty much all the 'usual ones' from this tour. finished with first of the gang... also played irish blood, ask, some girls are bigger..., girlfriend in a coma... several from the new album, etc...

      pretty good concert, but not the best one i've seen. my favourite remain at the london palladium i think, and even roskilde festival a few years ago was, not a better concert as such, but a better choice of songs. nevertheless, it certainly wasn't a bad concert. just wish he'd played more of the songs i like. but nevermind.

      morrissey wasn't particularly chatty, i prefer when he talks more between songs, but the band were definitely on good form, no doubt. no drama like last night at the first danish concert with a guy being thrown out, it was just pretty straightforward - another night on the job, not great, but alright.

      i took some pics and filmed a little bit, might upload later.

    Great concert, packed but no he didn't play sunny and changed seasick to life's a pigsty which is nice but not for a live concert i think. - and probably because of that idiot who got sacked in Odense- Nnnice merchandise, cool t shirts i wish they could've sell mugs and more useless stuff which i love to spend money on.
    It's been a while for me since the last concert so i really don't know what's going on with the roadies. Didn't see Julia. Can anyone explain who were the "cat people"? hahaha they looked pretty funny with the kitty masks.
    He threw 2 shirts and the band also gave away loads of stuff to the crowd. They all seemed very happy.

    **** in memory of my dearest Larry, you are always on my mind. I miss you.

    Great show once again. He played Life is a pigsty and All you need is me and skipped Seasick and 'I keep mine hidden' for this show. Three shirts I think. No particularly memorable quotes as far as I remember.

    The singer from Doll and the Kicks related a story about how the bass player had broken a ride in Tivoli the day before.

    Pretty good show - though far from the amazing Odense-show. Despite the fact that he did not play the gorgeous "I Keep Mine Hidden" the setlist was solid. Who on earth chats during "Pigsty" Honestly! Com´on people!

    I stayed after the show 1 1/2 along with three young girls to try and catch Morrissey. But thesecurity folks would not let us close to his bus and we only caught a glimpse of him before he disappeared in the bus with the curtains drawn.

    Anyways, had a blast, but I´ll go to work in 4 hours so...bedtime!

I don't know Kris because I'm older, but we had the same music teacher from elementary school through high school. My dad and the teacher are friends and when my dad told him I had seen Kris play here in April our teacher said he had no idea who Morrissey was. HA (But DID know Kris had played with Gwen Stefani! LOL)

        Anyhoo-thanks - I don't think any pictures of M, no matter how blurry, could be considered poor. ha

  • Why does everyone seem to love this song, especially when played in concert? I could easily name 100 Smiths or Morrissey songs I'd rather hear!

    It's not that I think it's a bad song...but 7 + minutes long, limited singing, mid-tempo...time for a drink in my opinion!

  • After going to countless punk / indie / pop concerts and festivals I have to say, that the sound last night was probably the worst I have experienced ever!

    Too bad - more or less ruined what might have been extremely memorable.

    But got to hear How Soon Is Now live - sent shivers down the spine...

  • copenhagen show (Score:2, Interesting)

    Great show in Copenhagen. Again packed like in Odense. But the Odense gig was a little better, more club-like.

    A new backdrop was "sported" in Copenhagen. The sailer was gone.

    Moz in fine form again. Sported a brown suit. Threw two of his shirts to his adoring fans. The crowd was really good and sang along to all the songs which seemed to please the Mozfather a lot. He didn't chat that much with the audience.

    Still seasick, but yet still docked with a fine version of Life Is A Pigsty. After the incident in Odense Seasick, Still Yet Docked were left out in the dressing room. Sadly.

    The band was in an exceptionally fine form. Played very well.

    Morrissey, please come back to Cam...Copenhagen!

    SETIST as far as i remember. I'll be back a little later with the correct setlist:

    This Charming Man
    Billy Budd
    Black Cloud
    Ask
    When Last I Spoke To Carol
    How Can Anybody Possibly Know How I Feel?
    How Soon Is Now?
    I'm Throwing My Arms Around Paris
    The World Is Full Of Crashing Bores
    Girlfriend In A Coma
    Why Don't You Find Out For Yourself?
    Life Is A Pigsty (can't remember if it was played before or after Some Girls Are Twitters?)
    Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others
    One Day Goodbye Will Be Farewell
    I Keep Mine Hidden (not sure?)
    Irish Blood, English Heart
    Let Me Kiss You
    The Loop
    I'm OK By Myself
    Encore:
    First Of The Gang To Die

    What you've been doing is the incrediable thing.
    You make the history.
    So powerful that sweeps away the things we
    don't want to see and create the beautiful
    world by singing.

  • Solomon kicks ass! (Score:2, Insightful)

    I don't understand why people like the Odense-show better than this one... Morrissey was in a far better mood in Copenhagen and his mood changes everything :o)

    And luckily no jackass felt the need to diss him at this concert.

    What has really amazed me on this tour - other than Morrissey, of course - is the band. Solomon Walker kicks ass! The way he carries the bass and "punishes" it with the plectar is fantastic. He knows how to play a very decent punk-bass and it really fits the music. I think the band seems more complete now than it ever has. Matt Walker is very funky too, and of course Boz - what an amazing musical leader on stage. Fantastic.

    Also, I loved the setlist. I think the musical highlights at both concerts were "The Loop" and "Why don't you find out for yourself." Fabulous.

  • One of the last songs played before Morrissey took to the stage in Copenhagen last night, right before the David Johansen interview, featured a 60's style video in which a band (2 or 3 long-haired guys and a female lead singer) played around in a park. Does anyone know this great song and the charming band?

  • The band is the Dutch band Shocking Blue with the song "Mighty Joe" from 1969.

    Singer Mariska Veres died in 2006.

    "Copenhagen, you are too hot", Morrissey said during the show. And it was so hot that Morrisseys shirts got completely wet after just minutes.

  • The CORRECT setlist (Score:3, Interesting)

    The band's setlists were thrown into the crowed and I caught one of them. They didn't drop any song from it and it goes as follows:

    1) This Charming Man
    2) Billy Budd
    3) Black Cloud
    4) All You Need Is Me
    5) How Soon Is Now
    6) Let Me Kiss You
    7) Ask
    8) Paris
    9) How Can Anybody Possibly Know How I Feel?
    10) The World Is Full of Crashing Bores
    11) The Loop
    12) Girlfriend in a Coma
    13) Why Don't You Find Out For Yourself
    14) Some Grrls Are Bigger Than Others
    15) When Last I Spoke to Carol
    16) Life Is a Pigsty
    17) One Day Goodbye Will Be Farewell
    18) Irish Blood, English Heart
    19) I'm OK By Myself

    ENCORE:

    20) First of the Gang to Die

    Both Morrissey and the band were in absolutely great form but, sadly, from where I was standing, the crowd only really seemed into it during "Irish Blood", "First of the Gang" and a couple of the Smiths songs. Audience enthusiasm was particularly low during "Pigsty", which was received with complete indifference by practically everybody in the venue. People were either chatting with each other or just standing there with the arms down their sides. It was a bit embarrassing.
    Having said all this, I did notice a little section of the crowd (to the left of the stage) who were completely bonkers all through the concert and Morrissey DID return to this group of fans quite a few times to shake hands with them.

    Signed vinyls were sold at the venue.

    I am from Huntington Beach, CA, USA and went to Copenhagen to see Moz on my 38th bday with my best friend Stu. The people were cool. The beer was tastey. We were in the front row thanks to some smart ladies we filed in behind of in line at the last door to the right. Shook His hand at the beginning of " You Better Find Out..". See here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IlZlb05Q-vU&feature=related [youtube.com] The set was amazing. The new songs tranlate well live. Especially "Goodbye" Got a pic from Jesse, a drumstick, and a setlist due to a security guard who thought it was interesting I travelled so far for a concert on my bday. We bought #'s 19/20 and 20/20 of the signed albums. I have seen Mozzer for every tour since Kill Uncle, so this was indeed special to see him on my bday in another country with my best friend. Thanks to The Man Himself for making that the best birthday ever.
