Also shame on the creepy guy in the pub flaunting a piece of Moz shirt half jokingly asking the much younger girls for a blowjob for a piece of shirt. Only joking I'm sure you vile toad!

So, what’s happened to Notre Dame??

Is it possible the band didn’t like playing it?

Hilarious you think the band has any say in the setlist. The world of Morrissey isn’t a democracy, thank god!

Speedway

I feel like that the Germaine Greer backdrop being brought back specifically for Speedway is due to the article she wrote a few years back about song lyrics and their relation to poetry. I remember Greer specifically referencing speedway and the way he repeats "I never said, I never said" and how this technique doesn't really translate well into poetry but that Morrissey uses it well in song lyrics knowing that the words are meant to be sung and thus given a different meaning when he repeats them with a different tone. If I also remember correctly, she said that it was her favourite Moz song.

This being said, a quick google search doesn't lead me to anywhere. I was able to find one article where she is writing about the over-rated snobbery of Dylan's lyrics and in there she references the same concept I mentioned earlier but in relation to "Everyday is like Sunday". Does anyone know the article where she refers to Speedway? Or is it all just in my head? Because I thoroughly remember reading it...

 

[Lujan369]

She should be Sam's or Morrissey's girlfriend.

Nah...And that NABA who it is?. It's already too big to wear schoolgirl clothes.It was only missing that he made the typical gesture of throwing a kiss with a pursed mouth that all boludos do: TROMPITA. This is the emoji.QUE ESTUPIDA!!!

 

[Lujan369]

I have my ticket to see Moz in my city Buenos Aires but I want songs from VAI, Arsenal Quarry Ringleaders too eh!! Please, Moz in addition to the speed... that I love I want another VAI more. It could be my heart now... Oh, please, Hector no, there are thousands better... Jim Jim my days at Hurl.....

I got a piece of that shirt. Our friend who got the piece shared it with 4 other people. Black with gold or silver threads through it.Hope it's in the attic. I'm not willing to find out. My attic like that warehouse in Indianna Jones.

 

[Packof20No10s]

Morrissey didn't say Rishi Sunak..sure it had something that had egg or something about an egg but I can't recall what he said instead of Rishi??
Anyone remember??
And hey..if I am wrong I am just blaming my hearing. Easy done innit.
