Last night was great - circle view. But tonight the atmosphere was amazing in the front row. One of the best M gigs I've been to.

From up in the cheap seats the energy was coming directly from centre stage.
The old bugger can still hit the back walls with ease. Impressive..

I'm sure the whole spiel about recording the concert was inspired by the fact that Wikipedia removed any reference of Jane Birkin's involvement in Moz's meltdown due to a lack of sources... Gotta love these little Moz easter eggs

No, it's because a recorded announcement came out a few minutes before stating that recording video at this event was illegal. One of the venue security started getting heavy and trying to someone in the front row recording on their phone, leading to an outburst from Morrissey during the opening song for security to take it easy.

I'd say we got the better of the two sets on Tuesday, no ND and Mr Shankly. If only he'd kept jack the ripper in there too. Ah well!

 

[Light Housework]

I heard Moz sing 'Sharon' several times during Every Day is Like Sunday, I do believe.

 

[RecogNizeTalent]

That drummer is the most talented in the band.
he looks pretty bored compared to when Alain and Guz were in the band.

Ok that makes sense... thanks for the info

Prove it !!!

Soon after 52:38. I've cued the video play time up. I'm trembling.

 

[Light Housework]

I'm going for a walk soon, to use up this adrenaline.

There was a huge ruckus with an older couple in the 2nd row complaining about everyone legging it down the front. I half sympathise but everyone is going to stand all gig anyway, so they were never going to get an unobstructed seated view from that position - should have gone on the balcony. They ended up getting removed by security I think.

Got to admit I'm not a huge fan of how Morrissey has ended the last few concerts with a speech about "Our strength is in our history, our strength is in our unity, etc". It feels a bit too much like something you'd hear at a Nazi rally. I suppose at least he hasn't done a salute at this point yet. Maybe he's saving that for London?

Was Marianne there acting like she’s friends with Morrissey and the band?

Agreed. I don't know why he plays venues that have seated stalls. Everybody stands up as soon as he comes on, and people from further back rush to the front. If I'd paid full whack for seats towards the front and I was suddenly stood behind 100 people I'd be furious.

Upstairs circle seating, downstairs standing room only. Very fair way to do it.

Maybe he enjoys seeing the rush and the push.
