More myth peddling around Mike trying to kick Morrissey's mum out of 'her' home. But I suppose if you repeat it enough times enough people will believe it.....
Mike's legal bods had a right to go after Morrissey's assets when Morrissey began to play stupid games and avoid paying. However, crafty Morrissey had put the house he owned in Hale or Bowden into his mum's name, so therefore as Morrissey did not legally own the house, Mike's legal bods could not have any claim on it. No attempt was made to force anyone out. Now had Morrissey still had the house in his name that would have been a different matter. But it wasn't. So nothing to see here.....
I did not say Joyce tried to kick his mother out of her home.
But Moz felt it like that cause Mike's legal bods acted on his behalf.
As I said, bad blood had rised at both sides.
I still want to believe Joyce not really intended it.
You are right myths are all around Smiths and Moz. And as others it can be misleading. But still.
I really liked the song Mama Lay Softly On The Riverbed and felt it was an emotional very strong song and still think the emotion, the anger and the passionate drive was true and used as a basis for a memorable and important song.
If you are right, it was all based on fantasy he used to mislead his audience and to create this as a mean to be seen as victim and martyr. I must say I can't believe that.
Moz didn't accept the verdict of a judge who without any reason at all as a judge described him in public in the lowest terms possible.
Why did that judge do that? He could have leave it with the verdict.
A judge is supposed to be independent and even with a verdict in the disadvantage of one of the parties never to be dismissive afterwards.
If I was in moz shoes I would do the same.
That legal right can be distracted from a process with a verdict that was wrong. A judicial error. They do happen you know.
So if the house was owned by Moz they had a legal right to kick her out? It doesn't matter who owned the house. Kicking somebody out of her home is bad, miserable and brutal in itself who ever it is.
And there are already so many who know.
This is why I loved that song. It is about him and his feelings but it touches on a universally experienced emotion.
You say: No attempt was made to force anyone out. Maybe not a real attempt but there was a danger, a risk and something hovering over your head like a black cloud that scares you and you don't know what is going to happen.
