Steevo Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 If he makes it down here this tour (slim chance), I will have to make it, no question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tangy Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 Yeah, the new disc is pretty good. Jeff Beck plays on one track. Unfortunately, he just cancelled his sold out show here in town with one days notice. He cancelled 4 florida shows, played a half show in SC, then cancelled Atlanta and now Asheville. Guess he is sick. The tickets read " Tour Of Refusal" which is a good name given what has gone down........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hasn't made a decent album since Vauxhall for me with the brilliant Steve Lillywhite producing. As he was convinced this was going to be his last album he really pulled out all the stops and f**k, does it show. Also, it's amazing to see so many teens that have caught on to him again through the last 2 albums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg2112 Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Big Moz/Smiths fan. Saw him two tours ago and he was fantastic. Good to hear hes still putting out good material. He has a great backing band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try to be diverse in music even though I do love to rip other bands. I actually like The Smiths too! You just have to be in a certain mood for Morrissey's melancholy music.

The Gutless Wonder Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I'm glad you like Moz, Earl! I like alot of his stuff too! 'Noise Is The Best Revenge' was a great b-side/third song on the CD that was on the re-issue of 'There Is A Light That Never Goes Out'. Think some singles got reissued at one point as I came across that by chance and really loved it! 'Everyday Is Like Sunday' is ace as well!

"Viva Hate" is still my favorite Morrissey record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PuppetKing2112 Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Years of Refusal is pretty solid. I like this new career pattern of his, basically becoming the '80s mope rock version of Tom Petty. Puts out basically the same album every few years but it's always good. I saw him at Coachella earlier this year and he still puts on a good show. The Smiths stuff is obviously superior to his solo work, but my favorite solo Morrissey album is You Are the Quarry, from 2004. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steevo Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Wow, I've been a little behind on him of late. Just learnt they've remastered Southpaw and Maladjusted with a few extras. I'd say both these reissues are essentials as I've heard some of the Bs before and they're pretty solid. Glad they did this!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theworkingman Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Apparently he collapsed on stage at the start of one of his shows. Really hope he is okay. http://www.thisiswiltshire.co.uk/new...ge_in_Swindon/ With that aside, the album is very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steevo Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Broken link WM. This from a fan who saw the show: "He sang This Charming Man, seemed in good voice, then as the song ended before I knew it it looked like somone was being carried off the stage to the right as we looked, then the band followed pretty immediately. After about 10 minutes a roadie came out and asked everyone to be patient. House lights came up a bit, then about another 30 minutes later the same roadie came out and said Morrissey had left the building and that we should keep our tickets for refunds (not my prime concern at that point!) and then ended by saying "He is seriously ill." A few idiots shouted complaints but not many. Ironically, when Morrissey came on stage, he said "Good evening... Possibly." Get well Moz, scary shit!! Condition is now stable last I saw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tangy Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 ^^^ That sucks and it seems he has been sick alot. He cancelled our show with less than 24 hours notice and no apology whatsoever. I can understand being being sick but a little apology/goodwill goes along way. Shit happens but i doubt i would make the effort to score tickets for him again. He has another release coming out soon and another leg of US dates on the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonatine Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Not much of an update since last night other than that he is in a stable condition in hospital. The exact cause has yet to be made clear. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/8324492.stm I wish you well, man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
