Music-News / Fiona Dodwell: "Morrissey UK tour a hit with fans despite continued label silence" (July 19, 2023)

Excerpt:

Brit music legend Morrissey has been touring live dates across the UK with his new band line-up. With long-time lead guitarist Jesse Tobias now playing alongside Carmen Vandenberg, Juan Galeano and Brendan Buckley, Morrissey has been performing a string of sold-out shows in Leeds, Portsmouth, Dublin and Liverpool. With the next show being at London's Troxy this coming Saturday – also now sold out – the former Smiths frontman has been delighting crowds by performing a string of both old hits and new, as yet unreleased, tracks.

New Dodwell piece, if anyone is interested.
Same as the others

Let’s hope the Mozzer won’t wear his out in public. That anti-Zelenskyy comment was disappointing enough.

What anti-Zelensky comment?

Has Dodwell been sacked? It seems like it's been a few months since she did one of these publicity pieces

I was thinking the same thing, it's gone a bit quiet on the Dudwell front...

MORRISSEY WAS TOURING
WITH TALENTED
MUSICIANS, SUCH AS:
ALAIN WHYTE AND
GUSTAVO MANZUR.

HOWEVER, THEY LEFT
DUE TO MORRISSEY’S
f***ED UP, DEMEANING MANAGEMENT, AND JESSSE TOBIAS’ RIDICULOUS ORGASM-GUITAR-FACE.

Bring back talented musicians.

Axe people with their heads up their arseholes.



Say all this in the press release, why don’t you?

Oh please. Don't summon the devil.

Oh please. Don't summon the devil.

She is near.

Any ideas for a headline of her fortcoming new blog entry?

Mozzer soaks up sun down under and leaves out old-fashioned Perth in favour of a massiv Melbourne crowd of devotees where women seem to like him.

She was never “working for him” so if she hasn’t written about him lately that’s presumably cos even she’s got bored of writing about him nowaday

Show in Melbourne: Morrissey at his best, Pants down!

Yes, I think it's Dodwell who has quit Morrissey, not the other way around. Possibly she was irked when Camila Grey was taken aboard, because now the British God had brought a younger and comelier goth girl into the flock of votaries, and she felt insulted. Her "Axl Rose is rock's greatest frontman" piece might've been Dodwell's unsubtle kiss-off letter to Morrissey, and she's probably doubly nerved to realize he never read it.

But wasn't it possible to order "wish reports" on the platform, on which she scribbled her "things"?

I wasn't aware of that article. It really is a hoot. Brace yourselves...

As with many greats of the music world, it is often hard to fully articulate exactly what makes an artist as respected and loved as they are. Many bands have solid lead vocalists, or songwriters that create tracks that are memorable and cherished by generations, yet there is always that extra “something” that separates the good from the great. Whatever that “something” is, Axl Rose clearly has it in abundance. His unrivalled energy on stage; his shatteringly powerful vocals (both on stage and in the studio); his willingness to pen honest lyrics with a direct and candid flavour, it all combines to create something that few others can bring to the table.
