Because they're Catholic and their alien brains recognize he's Mary.
The bait and switch bus/van thing is hazy. I do remember the soundcheck. I had that experience again in Louisville, KY in 2004 where they (security) kindly let me stand at the side stage door (outside of course)...and once again, I had that same feeling as you described.
Yeah. I'm from H.B. I get it.
Maybe I bumped into you at the merch stand. This is the shirt I bought at that gig.
Well, it's not just a Moz thing that I'm interested in. More of a new wave thing. I mean I knew a ton of older people that listened to depeche mode, bahaus, New order, etc and it never seemed like a Hispanic thing. It was just what people listened to. I wonder if it's the emotion under the guise of a danceable number.that interests me more, because to be honest, Morrissey has long had an "L.A. vibe" about him and since L.A. is mostly?(or at least a lot) inhabited by Mexican-Americans, I just always figured it was one of th L.A. things without analyzing it too much
oh yeah and that one time I was part of a convoy of cars, after a show, going to
only then did I notice that "our group" was me, an Asian-American woman and everybody else could have been Hispanic*
so yeah, just an L.A. thing man
*=I did not check people's I.D.s I am not some pig from Arizona
I can see that.Well, it's not just a Moz thing that I'm interested in. More of a new wave thing.

I was hoping you'd respond to this thread, nice to hear from you RWRWAmerican of Mexican descent here. I agree. It is the Ranchera-esque sound that does us in. Morrissey's style and song themes are very similar to that of Vicente Fernandez, Pedro Infante. It's almost as if while during their ballads is the only time the macho-obsessed culture is allowed to mollify the ultramasculine sentiment.
The most ironic/contradictory thing about going to a Morrissey concert in the LA area is all the Mexicans running to the bacon wrapped Mexican hot dog cart outside of the concert just out on the street and just far enough that it's not on the concert grounds or parking lot. Talk about hypocrites.
Even though San Diego is closer to Mexico, I don't see this at San Diego concerts and I don't see all the shaved head gigantic white T-Shirt with the wife beater underneath Mexicans at San Diego shows. It seems like the Mexicans at the San Diego shows are real Mexicans that come up from Tijuana.
what exactly does a bean and cheese burrito have to do with mexican/american culture? please, think past taco bell.
because el mozzer hasn't used cockfights and donkey shows as an excuse to declare mexicans a "subspecies" yet?Why do Mexican Americans love Morrissey so much?

There is some merit about the macho culture and ballads.....aka boleros.

In the distant mountain
a horseman is riding a horse
He wanders alone in the world
And keep going forward to the death
He carries in his chest a hurt
his soul is torn apart
He wishes to die
To meet with his beloved again
He loved her more than his own life
but lost her forever
That's why he carries a hurt
That's why he looks for the death
That's why he carries a hurt
That's why he looks for the death
With his guitar, he sings
Throughout the night
Man and guitar crying
under the light of the stars
Then he get lost in the night
and, spite of the night is so beautiful
He asks God to
take him with it.
He loved her more than his own life
but lost her forever.
That's why he carries a hurt
That's why he looks for the death
That's why he carries a hurt
That's why he looks for the death
Yes, never forget the gorgeous irish women:
