go to a Morrissey concert

I live in Aberdeen so its unlikely he’ll come here, but I can hope.

I forgot about this goal and I totally just bought a ticket for March! I’m pretty excited!

I don’t think Morrissey will be holding any concert near my place… so I don’t know when I’ll accomplish this goal.

you are the one for me, Fatty!

One of the best live performers around.

Morrissey is amazing live. And…he plays Smith songs which is way rad.

how much does being a poor college student sucks? a lot!

He was here, in my city.. the show was one day before my 18th birthday. and I couldn’t go. Tickets were offensively expensive.

I want a second chance, everytime I think about it, it makes me want to cry.

But I really don’t think he will ever come back.

After the Smiths broke up, when I first heard Morrissey without Marr, I thought that I could never love him solo the way that I love the Smiths. That sentiment is still somewhat true – it’s gestalt – but I first saw Morrissey live during the tour for Kill Uncle and quickly learned that he puts on one hell of a live show. Morrissey is one of the first performers that I saw actively help his most enthusiastic fans join him on stage and allow himself to be touched rather than let the normally overzealous security guards eject these people. I have seen him many times since – I truly have lost count, though I haven’t been to a Morrissey show in the past few years. The last time I saw Moz live, he’d just started performing Smiths songs live again, but he was also starting to show his age – his performance was not as physically energetic. An entertainer as great as Morrissey does not have to give a physically charged performance to be good – he could just stand there and be a crooner and seeing him would still be worthwhile, especially if you’ve never seen him perform live.

so excited!

It’s so exciting. I’m going! Manchester in december woohoo.
