"Morrissey ‘Live at The Hollywood Bowl’ illustrates just of how much of a lyrical genius Steven Morrissey is."
Then further down the page...
"Stephen Patrick Morrissey was born May 22, 1959, in Manchester, England"
Don't you just love it when a PR company does their homework properly! Why couldn't they just use common sense and avoid writing his first name at all given that they clearly weren't sure what spelling he was given at birth... or given that he prefers not to use it himself!
Amateurs!

My question is now that this release has been finalized, what was that fuss about inside the greatest hits cds (A rare made to order only Moz release)? I naturally assumed that would be the Hollywood Bowl dvd or cd. Heck, perhaps there is no secret release sense our man seems to have given up on yet another label (not sure if that's confirmed or not).
Anyways, if anyone knows, please share!
I'm "ssalefish" by the way, I'm just having password forgetfullness and took the lazy "anonymous" route.

The design reminds me a little of the old Warner Brothers VHS video boxes in the 80s. Not saying that's a good thing, but it has that feel.
Watching stunning HD broadcasts in Japan, it's hard to throw on a standard DVD anymore. This would've been a good first Blu-ray disc for me to buy.

Hand In Glove full of "references to homosexuality"???
Southpaw Grammar influenced by "prog-rock".
What buffoon wrote that press release? There is no way Morrissey would approve of this and whoever is responsible should be ashamed of themselves.

People moan about a lack of official concert DVDs, then when one finally comes along, it has a "lame design", it "smells like a bootleg", it "must be against Mozza's wishes", etc etc - even though, as was well publicised at the time, Warners DID pro-shoot the Hollywood Bowl gig. Everyone starts arguing about regional encoding when, as someone else has said on here, it's easy enough to verify whether or not this is offical product - simply contact Warners and/or the PR Company involved with promoting it! And what on earth is the point of calling for gigs that were NOT pro-shot to be released? How on earth could that be done??
A similar thing happened when someone posted the titles of the new material which had been registered on the song publishing site - loads of people here sneering "they don't sound like Morrissey titles", "it must be a hoax", etc etc. And of course, all those song titles proved to be absolutely correct and true.
I wonder if the same people who sneer are also the same ones who continue to believe that The Smiths will reform or that the Box Set will be released, despite the fact that Morrissey has made it abundantly clear to anyone with half a brain that he will never sanction anything that will benefit The Drummer...?
It's funny how these so-called fans always choose to disregard the facts, isn't it? Talk about "I Want The One I Can't Have"

It'll be especially nice to see "In the Future When All's Well." I don't remember it being played that much during the Greatest Hits tour. Of course the whole concert was amazing.
This show and Roundhouse Tuesday night (second night) were the greatest for me.
Thank you again, Moz.
Miss you, Love you, and see you again In the Future When All's...OBAMA!!!

Very surprised, I thought there wouldn't be that many people bothered about a blu-ray version.
