Just got back from the concert. Worked our way up to the 7th Row. Morrissey was in good form, talked to the audience throughout the show.

Played most of the good songs up front, the middle was a bit slow, but the night ended with with 1/2 of "Shoplifters." Too many people on stage, too few bouncers. I think that if the show went on for two mor e minutes, Morrissey would have been a "dead man walking." He was pulled off the stage and never came back! EXCELLENT! The band didn't know what to do with themselves. Lots of cops outside the theater expecting a riot that never happend! The audience wanted Billy Bud and Morrisey got Bully-Clubbed!

PS- Sunshine did not come out of his behind, but I bought my son a yellow Morrissey condom. What a wholesome family night.

I really felt bad, because we went to Burger King before the show and when Morrissey did "Meat is Murder," he mentioned that we should never go to "Murder King."

In a nutshell, the show didn't suck. This charming man pulled off a good show.
