Exactly, and I'm not even clamoring for more Smiths songs at this point - it could just be a much nicer show that spans and celebrates his solo career.

I recently saw DM, they played 3 songs from the new album. The remainder of the set covered songs from 8 past albums. It was fun and that's one reason DM can sell out so many shows in larger venues (a record 4 nights at the Hollywood Bowl) - it's not the same show tour after tour.

Your comparing apples and oranges mate.
Dave and Alain are at a different level. Morrissey has turned into circus side show and Depeche Mode are first class group.

Blimey limeys. They look like the cast of Blake's 7.

Well it might not have sold out but it still looks pretty well attended. I was happy to hear his voice so smooth. In the BBC showcase it sounded a little rough but not hear

Long gong are the days when I was excited to hear Speedway live...

I was thinking about going to one of the Hollywood Bowl shows, but that setlist isn't that great.

With all the songs that Moz, has from his Solo and the Smiths, he could have the crowd going wild....

But no sorry that can't the case.

Believe me, if you were a real Moz fan, then you'd just buy a ticket for the 2nd night at the Hollywood Bowl and just go and watch and listen. Life moves on.

Oh dear, things were looking promising. And then YOU arrive, Benny.
I actually thought that it was a great band photo. And a great band too, just incase you've not heard them live Benny.

Well, from what I'm reading it's not so much playing the same set each night ... it's playing so much of the same set tour after tour. Of course, he can and does play what HE wants, but at the same time, he's largely playing to the same audience ... so, why the lack of variety? I think it's a valid discussion point on a fan site.

Damn right it is. If Moz walked on stage and read the ingredients on a can of beans some people here would praise it. A Moz concert is great but is a shadow of the way his concerts used to be. The pre Quarry UK tour was amazing as was the Quarry tour. Some of the more recent tours have been good but they don't compare in quality to the 90s and early to mid 2000s. It all seems more canned and by the numbers these days. I'm still looking forward to Dublin though. Moz is still better than everyone else.

Jesse is a limited guitarist.

Firstly the only limited person is YOU, Anonymouse. Partially because you must be tone deaf and secondly because you are obviously not a guitarist, not even a limited guitarist. Because if you had any musical ability - WHATSOEVER - then you'd know about Jesse's pedals and cables, that have more brains than you.

So bye-bye Anonymouse. You weren't even good in your time !

Better to reign in hell then to serve in heaven, just because I tell it like I see it people get all ass hurt. Also I don’t wanna hear about your parents heroin problems and don’t try to pass them off as mines. If you want someone to talk to about your problems because mommy and daddy didn’t hug you enough I suggest you seek out therapy. Also if you can’t handle a few insults on the internet then maybe you should log off and never get on it again. You tossed ass wanker.

STOP THIS IMMEDIATELY. BOTH OF YOU.

THE ADMINISTRATOR.

" If Moz walked on stage and read the ingredients on a can of beans some people here would praise it."

It depends.
On how it was done. How he sings it, the faces he pulls, and how the music was accompanying it.
He is the only one who could do it and the absurdity of it all would be quite entertaining, for me. And funny.
I like it when he goes in that territory.

And his critical following all going, whaa, that's absurd, he can't do that.
Then he wants to prove he can.
He challenges his fans and they are challenging him.
Don't do this, Moz, don't do that and he goes why not?

By the way the ingredients of a can of beans are beans and a very good replacement for meat.
So, if that doesn't do it, I don't know what will.

Who?
I thought the administrator had some more important things to do.

Maybe it IS DavidT, disguised as anonymous.
It was Halloween, after all, if you took notice.

That photo of the band in Halloween outfit is funny!
Study their faces.
But Moz could made a contribution too.
Why is isn't in this picture wearing something hilarious?
Making fun of himself?
He seems so serious now-a-days.

What is he saying.. Grabbed you by???

What is he saying.. Grabbed you by???

Well, considering the position of his hands and the form they seem to take, I would say,.......I don't know. For sure.

 

[valvano]

What is he saying.. Grabbed you by???

I swear he says"I grabbed you by the Heinz baked beans"

 

[Cornflakes]

What is he saying.. Grabbed you by???

The Heinz baked beans. It's a tinned, legume-based delicacy.

 

[Dracula]

For those of you actually trying to defend Jesse's playing ability, please listen to the way he plays the intro to Back on the Chain Gang. It's pitiful. Morrissey keeps musicians around because they're obedient and comfortable taking his shit, not because they're especially gifted. I think this is obvious to anyone paying attention.

Hahaha..

Thanks. That's pretty funny and still fits the song. I don't really like this song but this is an excellent version of it.
