Cool!

Thank you for posting. Nice to see a range of age groups at that gig. I did think that American girl at 3.32 was rather cute. It's also good to see that that horrible green fence has been partly removed around the Salford Lads Club. When I went there it was across the front entrance. Ruined the photo somewhat.
I'm confused. Where is all the usual bitching about the 'fan elite'?

Hi Amy
I was the film editor on this piece. I can't speak for 'the Beeb', but both myself and the producer are huge Morrissey fans and it was not our intention to create a freak show.
We were trying to show how Morrissey can inspire an incredible level of fan worship, which does include tattoos, shirt-ripping and giving up of jobs to follow him around the world.
The fans we interviewed were honest, candid and very open about the extent of their obsession and we are grateful for their contribution.
I'm really pleased that Morrissey continues to inspire some people in this way - I'm sure Chris Rea, for example, doesn't. Of course, Morrissey can't choose his fans or their level of fandom. And neither can other fans, regardless of how embarrassed they may feel.
