Morrissey at Brixton Academy

Just back from an evening with Morrissey at the Brixton Academy. It was the last gig of the world tour, so the last time to see Moz & the Boys for a while. A cracking show, with an end of term feel.

Morrissey gigs get a rather interesting blend of fans in the audience. There really is no set look, age or type who seems to like him, he just seems to connect with some people. If you don't like Moz, you probably won't like the show and if you do you'll love it. He doesn't take prisoners in his music and never has.

Morrissey made the point that none of the music press had bothered to turn up to review the shows. I suppose they think that if they ignore Morrissey for long enough, he'll go away.

They're wrong. I think that's why I rather like Moz.

I just like someone who can sing more than one note!

Morrissey is and always will be a total legend.

Did rather want to see him this tour, but hey, ho hum :)
