[Born to Harangue]

I’d have no interest in meeting any of these people! What would I even say to them? “Oohh, I love your work! What was [insert actor here] like to work with? Can I get a picture with you?” No thank you! Unless they’re there to talk about meeeeee, and how fascinating they think I am, I’d rather not spend time in their company! Morrissey loves hierarchy though, when it suits him, so this list is right up his alley. It’s not ‘here’s a list of fans I met over the years who had a positive impact on my life’, it’s ’here’s a bunch of rich and famous people I once awkwardly spent 10 minutes in the company of; hopefully by associating my name with theirs I can regain some of my lost star power’. F*** right off, Mozzer! And denounce Israel’s conduct NOW. I remember you wrote a missive about Bashar al-Assad for crying out loud, someone you know nothing about, I think you can find the energy to write a few words about a country you’ve actually been to! You status seeking oaf! What, having a good 35 years of people fawning over you wasn’t enough? Missing the buzz of feeling extra special? Welcome to reality; it’s about time you rejoined us. Do you want me to cry for you or something?? Boo hoo, his phone’s not ringing constantly any more. Boo hoo, he only has tens of millions of pounds rather than hundreds of millions. Get a grip; could you look any more out of touch??

Nice enough. Now if only Central would continue in this way, as I suggested in the bridge thread.

 

[ZOOM FROM GLOOM]

A little surprised seeing patti at 27. And relieved to not see certain names on here too (ahem r brand).

probably not in order of importance, don’t think Johansen would be so low then.

 

[Juan Dulces]

Wha? Moz and Mel isn't a revelation. Here with Tom Jones.

One of my favorites!

 

[Juan Dulces]

Some definite surprises on this. Mel Gibson? Pete Townshend is the standout revelation. I didn't know Morrissey had much interest in the Who, but maybe he just liked Townshend's persona when he met him.

 

[johnny marr is sh*t]

Mick Jagger? That's odd, I thought "get off the stage" was about him. Though it must have been a nice meeting

 

[ZOOM FROM GLOOM]

Mick Jagger? That's odd, I thought "get off the stage" was about him. Though it must have been a nice meeting

think he changed his mind about Mick in autobiography.

Joel Fabiani and Peter Wyngarde in Department S

Very Very disappointed my name isn't down on the list, I shook his hand in killarney in ireland after a concert ,although he refused to sign an autograph for me I think because I called him Steven and I said to him is this because of years of refusal, which he was promoting at the time, he acknowledged my sense of humour.

 

[Lujan369]

This talented guy is spying on Moz's autobiography, !! Lawrence would also want to have a picture with Moz, and Moz should have one with Lawrence H!!!!!

You okay tonight, honey bunny? You seem to be having some kind of episode.

 

[WiderThanAMile]

He cites Mel Gibson !!!!
Sigh

 

[Dorothy]

This is probably a clarification following the Fox interview where he said that he had met everybody in his life that he wanted to meet.

 

[Redacted]

Where's Miley Cyrus?

 

[nicky wire's legs]

William Shatner lol

 

[ZOOM FROM GLOOM]

William Shatner lol

Isn’t ‘William It Was Really Nothing’ about him?

Actually, Shatner is a pretty interesting character.

 

[nicky wire's legs]

Is it?

I don't that much about him. I just thought he was a (likeable) buffoon.

 

[Bluebirds]

No Rick Astley? Nor Joey Barton. Tsk.

 

[Was I ever any good]

WTF…. No mention of uncle skinny ?

 

[Anonymous]

There's still time for a musical duet with William Shatner. Actually, maybe he should get The Shat to replace Miley's vocals on 'I Am Veronica'?

 

[Ryan]

B-B-B-B-BOOYAH!

How many on this list will guest on Without Music The World Dies then ask to be removed?
