Now let me get one thing straight. Not ALL Morrissey fans are fruit-loops. In my time I have met...

A small article by Keith Barker-Main was in the London Metro today (May 27).

Q: Happily, you seem to have gotten over that nunnish phase.

A: [Laughs] Yeah. After I stopped doing drugs I started to f*** like a bunny! Before that I suffered from years of celibacy. I was on this whole Morrissey kick, no masturbation, no romance, no nothing! The store was completely closed. My self-imposed chastity was only scheduled to last for two years, but it went on for three years, eight months and six days.

Thanks to Dickie for spotting this on Twitter.

This may not mean much to non-UK people, but he's well known as the bad boy of English football, and his favourite song is a bit of a surprise...

There's more in this post by Boethius here, by the way, from a couple of weeks ago, which I'm ashamed to say I missed:

Lokerse Feesten 2011

Morrissey will be performing at the Lokerse Feesten on August 4 2011. Tickets already online at www.lokersefeesten.be.

Jaren hebben we er stiekem van gedroomd. Maanden hebben we er aan gewerkt. Weken hebben we op een antwoord gewacht. Nachten hebben we er wakker van gelegen.

Maar soms komen dromen uit en wint de aanhouder want - Hij komt: MORRISSEY zal op donderdag 4 augustus voor het eerst (als solo-artiest) op een Belgisch festivalpodium staan, in een exclusieve show voor België, Frankrijk en Luxemburg! Well you don't need to look so pleased.

De voorverkoop voor 4 augustus (met naast Morrissey o.m. ook 2MANYDJS LIVE en GOGOL BORDELLO) start meteen, via www.lokersefeesten.be.
