Morrissey Spotted in SF

[Raquel]

On Tuesday, September 24, his day off between his 4 shows, he went to Amoeba Records on Haight Street. He was wearing a plaid flat cap and plaid attire as well. An employee spotted him looking at the Smiths and Morrissey CD sections. People seemed to recognize him but not approach him.

I do that, religiously, every time I go into any record store. I know damn well I'm not going to see anything I haven't seen before, but I still have to look. Just on the off chance...you know....

I don't wear a cap, but a rapidly diminishing hairline.

Hi this is Morrissey, and I can assure you that I do not look for my own albums or CD's for that matter when entering a record store. I head straight for the Barbara Streisand section, then off to the used VHS section where I gather my lyric material from watching comedies of the 1980's.

A spirit in the material world,
Morrissey

There is not a single doubt in my mind that Moz would look at his own CDs.

I know that section of Amoeba, I bought The Singles there in May and that got my obsession going. How ironic.

Of course he would be interested in knowing if they actually had stock of his merchandise

hehe, I third this action. I do it too...and I also put his records/cd's in front of all the others, so that the front row is covered with nothing but MORRISSEY!

Happy to know he was out and about!

Off topic, but there's a great taco place down the street from that record store.

I tried to go there with my friends once but it was a dive and I'm a huge germaphobe.

I wonder if you are referring to Sweet Heat?
Morrissey would love that place, they specialize in vegetarian burritos. But I can't quite imagine him queueing up and telling the employee what kind of beans he would like, mild or hot salsa, regular or super burrito...

Nice to hear that Moz likes Amoeba records too - that is such a marvellous shop - probably the best record store in the world.

i also do this

Wait: no one is going to comment that Morrissey was dressed entirely in tartan?! Fair enough, I'm a lover of plaid myself. Maybe not enough to dress head to foot in it, but to each his own.

Has Moz made a return visit to El Noche, the Mexican drag bar in Oakland?

Second that. The store in L.A. is impressive too.

I would love to see a photo of that all plaid get-up!
"Esta Noche" is in SF, Moz went there after his Oakland show.
Not sure if he's made it back this time though!

haha! Good! Because we must!

I really have no business going to look for anything else anyways....I haven't been to a 'good' record store, actually ever even been to one! , which I am needing to so desperately, so everything that I see, are cd's of crap bands. Which is all I say when I pass the cds.

But I have fun in putting Moz where he should be!!
