They did not perform "Still Ill" even though they soundchecked earlier in the afternoon.

I was in Singapore working these last 3 days. Today was insufferable heat-wise for us westerners...
I'm now in KL and heading to Jakarta for the gig on Thursday, as yet a ticket is proving hard to get a hold of.
If any kind soul in Jakarta can put me in touch with a source I'd be eternally thankful

I heard levis is sponsoring the event and they giving away tickets, but you have to purchase their product in levis stores to get the ticket.. You can give it a try ..

Loved the sound, and most of the interpretation, also loved the fact that the crowd wasn't too big. It made the gig almost intimate.

But the heat and humidity were terrible, even by local standards, and that might explain why half the crowd was dozing off. Must have been hard to play in thses conditions.

Having said that, 15 songs including the Encore is a bloody joke. Not playing songs like Suedehead and Last of the Famous International Playboys, and calling this a "Greatest Hits Tour"? Come on!!!

Granted the crowd wasn't great, but there wasn't any generosisty in Morrissey's performance.

I really enjoyed this concert and was very lucky to be there - I didn't find out about it until 8pm!!! Been listening to Morrissey and The Smiths since a teenager in the 80s and this was my first Morrissey concert.

I have to say though, the crowd was embarrassingly quiet sometimes and I was quite surprised we even got an encore.

"Still Ill" and "November Spawned A Monster" were played at the soundcheck. Unfortunetly, neither song made the setlist.

Have to agree with Boris regarding setlist. Disappointingly short. I would have loved to heard "Suedehead" and "I Have Forgiven In Jesus" amongst others.

It was an endurance test for the crowd - let alone Morrissey!

Worst audience ever. People stood static throughout. If anybody tried to dance or jump enthusiastically they were treated to angry scowls from "irritated" neighbours trying to quietly enjoy the gig, not wanting anybody else's skin to come into contact with theirs. Many were too lazy to clap, cheer, scream. At the end of one song Moz said something along the lines of "this is the end of the song.. usually there is applause..." i could sense his disappointment at the poor response and turnout (less than 2,000? i estimate). yet he was still utmost professional, giving his best on vocals. I am singaporean and am grateful that great acts like Morrissey are being brought in, but sometimes I feel like we don't deserve to have them come. Our audiences are utterly clueless..

What show were you at?

Morrissey was quite grateful with the response, I thought. Yes, turnout was low but he didn't seem concerned. It certainly made for an intimate venue.

You've got that remark wrong, by the way. Morrissey was being self-deprecating and said "This is the end of the song and usually there is silence" to a loud applause.

Those down at the front were happy to dance around. Of course, at any venue you will come across those who are soaking up the music and don't want to be troubled by pogoing idiots. That is standard.

he was good, although acts like morrissey, placebo, manics,... they all are miles better if you catch them in london or ny than in singapore or hk.

- not enough people, not enough applause, not cool enough....? gimme a break. who cares? 'singapore....this is your life!'

myboyracer · May 9, 2012

Moz usually comes back for an encore with one song.

Here's an article from the Straits Times. http://www.straitstimes.com/BreakingNews/Singapore/Story/STIStory_796932.html

Most of it is hidden behind a paywall, sadly.

Some pictures I took from the Singapore's concert yesterday.

I was very surprised and glad Morrissey accepted my humble mediocre drawing of him at the end of the concert. Thank you so much! =D

viva hate kimo · May 9, 2012

I enjoyed myself the whole time! Quite a decent turnout but the weather was really hot. Not sure if Morrissey will ever come back to Singapore but I hope he do. He looked like he enjoyed Singapore as well. Just a pity that he didn't play There's a Light, Suedehead, Interesting Drug, Hairdresser On Fire, The More You Ignore Me, The Closer I Get... and many more. Hope he come backs and do those songs. We probably have to wait a long time for that but I am glad I saw him last night. No regrets! Best night ever!

Just picked up tix, only have vip left 22mil each, I think you could easily turn up & see what is on offer at the gate, a taxi will cost very little presuming you are in cbd, just be sure to leave enough time, if you need any help just shout

myboyracer · May 9, 2012

Just turned up early and rushed to the front once the gates are open. You may touch be able to reach for his hand .... just stretch out and wait ....

MancRedLee · May 9, 2012

I thought OSCAR was the first of the gang was very fitting

, As for the crowd they wasn't exactly static, however it is in there nature to be polite, so not a surprise really, still a great gig

omg you were the one? his expression was priceless!

anyhow, he did say that usually at the end of the song there is applause. and indeed there was silence. embarrassing but it was still a blast to be within 10m of him. still swooning..
