You f***ing morons will argue about anything

 

[BrummieBoy]

Not if the closet is from IKEA and he had to assemble it himself.

I can imagine Morrissey muncing on meat-balls with lingonberry sauce....

 

[Quando quando quando]

O...K....let's do a simple thought experiment..imagine Adele plays 2 nights at the Hollywood Bowl.....do you seriously imagine an 'almost never sell'? Or are you conceding that Adele is the real deal, The Voice who could sell out the Hollywood Bowl for as long as she could be arsed to sing there?

Another 'thought experiment'. Adele and Morrissey are available for a year long residency at a premier Vegas venue......who gets the coin? .....*smirks*....Morrissey is C List. Adele is A List.....but Morrissey imagines he's A List so contrives events like these gigs to try and crowdsurf the credibility but everyone knows he's not the real deal...sorry if that bursts your bubble, bro!

You can do any thought experiment that you like as I can but the fact is that day, Friday 10 November was named Morrissey Day in Los Angeles.
Not Adele Day, not Taylor Shit Day and not U2 Day either and that will of course never happen because this IS Moz Angeles we’re talking about.
Not Birmingham.

Even when Birmingham ever would announce a BrummieBoy Day there is a difference between the two cities in case you would have noticed.

Los Angeles Day is such a meaningful honour....just look at those who have beaten Adele to the 'honor' in the past! I bet Adele is sobbing in the Hidden Hills thinking "what do i have to do to get this town to love a fat bird from Tottenham!"....or not.....for the record, Sharon and Ozzy rule LA so Brum rules LA...

Go for it BrummieBoy, cause maybe you can. If that shy boy from Manc can, anything is possible, innit?

By the way, I always feel irritated and get angry at your posts but there are posts, when you are really angry that are great, when your anger stretches out to all things in the world not really attached to all things Moz but to the whole f***ing asshole world.
Then there is “something” hypnotising in your writing style that keeps me reading and gets me to unexplored territories. I feel a bit envious than and wished I could get in to that. Like I wish I could write like that.
I also think you are in fact the greatest Moz-fan around.

My 3 friends and I were physically assaulted at the bowl Friday night during the Morrissey show.

A man and his wife were angry that Morrissey was playing his new material. Throughout the portion of the show we did watch, this man kept insulting Morrissey and his new music. My friends and I were enjoying the show, clapping and cheering and this infuriated this man.

He was like "you b****** like this crap?!" He was mad that we were enjoying the show. He kept flipping us off for clapping and yelling obscenities at us and Morrissey. He got so infuriated that he attacked my friend and punched the other all because he said please stop we're trying to enjoy the show. His wife got involved and attacked my friends as well; pulling chunks of bloody hair out.

The Hollywood Bowl security was no where to be found and the assault continued as Morrissey played. As security apprehended this man and his wife, he got away from them and punched my friend again, making the back of his head hit the bench and knocking him unconscious.

As security took this couple away, the man threatened to find us and kill us. We told security we were pressing charges and wanted the attackers arrested. However they allowed our attackers to leave the venue. Some of the security even said that we might have been responsible for antagonizing them to the point of them attacking us. That we shouldnt talk to drunk men in a certain way or they will be provoked and attack us.

We missed the majority of Morrissey because of this assault and Hollywood bowl security did very little to nothing to help us. All we did wrong was enjoy the new material Morrissey was playing.

 

[CrystalGeezer]

I saw a guy try to f*** a drunk chick near the escalators. I’m thinking maybe Morrissey needs to dial back the preshow porn. New songs sounded interesting, I’ll definitely check out the album. Crowd was meh in the cheap seats. It was too cold to sit through so many new songs.

In can confirm this took place as I was informed about it in a chatroom before your post even came up. There were many witnesses and one told me about it online.

Ironic with the band and their t-shirts in mind....

We all need the police and other security at some point in our life.

Are you insinuating Morrissey is a closeted homosexual?

Whatever gave you that idea?

 

[the only heartbreaker]

Where do you get these imaginary 50k fans from?
The Hollywood Bowl has a capacity of 17,500. My calculation is as follows:

Friday 95% attendance: 16,625
Saturday 90% attendance: 15, 750
Total: 32,335

Where do you get "50,000,000" Moz fans from?
Is this some sort of 'intergalactic calculation'?
Please....can everyone on this thread sort out their maths/math issues?!!!!

When Morrissey sells out the Staples Centre for 8 nights, get back to me. OK? Morrissey LA Day- Adele LA Week!!!!!

xo xo

What difference does that make?
You seem like that dickheads who said "oh, my penis is the longer"
Maybe, yes, Adele, TS, Bruno Mars have sold out today in every concert, but... in 20 years at least contiue making music?

Its clear that listening to Low in High School leads to people becoming violent.

The CD should included a warning sticker( may promote violent outbursts) or shouldn't be released to the general public.

Ganglord, remember!
The police can always be bribed

They say 'to protect and to serve'
But what they really mean to say is
"Get back to the ghetto! The ghetto, the ghetto

*
Lamenting policewomen, policemen,
Silly women, taxmen, uniformed whores
Educated criminals work within the law

*
He killed a policeman when he was 13 and somehow that really impressed me.

*
And as for you in your uniform
Your smelly uniform
You think you can be rude to me
Because you wear a uniform
A smelly uniform
And so you think you can be rude to me

But even I, as sick as I am, I would never be you
Even I, as sick as I am, I would never be you
Even I, sick and depraved, a traveller to the grave
I would never be you
I would never be you

As they (the "dickheads") have a 'dick' as a head when they say "oh, my penis is the longer," (sic) are they referring to their head or their actual penis? And who are they telling? Someone with a similar genital trait on their shoulders?

Either way, only Salvador Dali could do justice to such a surreal image.

I saw a guy try to f*** a drunk chick near the escalators. I’m thinking maybe Morrissey needs to dial back the preshow porn. New songs sounded interesting, I’ll definitely check out the album. Crowd was meh in the cheap seats. It was too cold to sit through so many new songs.

Man, very disturbing. I hope someone came to her defense

 

[SuedeMoz]

Took My Kids to See Morrissey last night..
For me it was an okay show.. for them.. they were excited to see him Live for the 1st time Together.
The Crowd was not into the new songs what’s so Ever & I’ve seen more energetic shows from him.
I really wished he would of put more of an effort for The Hollywood Bowl instead of his Videos of bitching & complaining. And Seriously.. did he come out last night? Seems like it..
Great to see him announce his Official Day in Los Angeles.. I just thought that the performance would be a little extra special. Hopefully he switches up the Setlist Soon.

Totally agree with your assessment. The Hollywood Bowl has some awesome large screens, why was Morrissey never shown like pretty much every other artist I've seen at the Bowl? I really think it caused a disconnect with the audience since only those with very close seats could actually see him. We really lost a lot by not being able to see his face and expressions as he sang.

You need to drink more alcohol.

They didn’t show it on the big screens because Morrissey doesn’t give a shit, he has your money in his hand so he will do the minimum to get paid.

If it was a Tortabilly that they guy was trying to f*** that’s the last thing anyone needs to worry about especially if they were on the escalators because the escalators were the real victims especially if they had to carry the Tortabilly.

I’m very sorry you guys were attacked by that drunken Jack ass he should be tossed in Jail for attacking you guys and the bowl security should have held them there for him to be arrested but you guys would have probably been arrested too, not for antagonizing the guy but for actually liking Morrissey’s new material that’s absouletely f***ing criminal, but I hope you guys feel better and sorry about your bad experience there.
