Yes, but it does feel sometimes, Gordy, like being stuck in a production of Waiting for Godot. With an extended interval.
It's very hard to argue with people for whom the Morrissey of today can do no wrong. At least I haven't read anything from you on the subject. I'm not just sitting in the dark of Germany with a vengeance. If you look closely, I have dealt with "I Ex-Love U" quite objectively. I'm still interested to see if he gets his act together, but he should simply refrain from promoting himself with such headlines. He never needed that up to a certain point. And just respect, that people for whom Morrissey could do no wrong in the 90s and 00s might change their minds at some point. Not out of pure malice.
He also loves singing his songs, with brilliant musicians, to handsome audiences!
Yes I agree, if you showed me those photos back in 1988 - this is what Morrissey will look like in 2020 f***ing 4, I'd have been cool. Fourth photo is reminiscent of his Viva Hate cover photo. Great to see he is looking after himself again.
I've seen Morrissey at Meadowbrook Theatre--an outdoor summer shed-Rochester, MI, The Palace of Auburn Hills--an NBA arena, Hill Auditorium, University of Michigan, State Theatre-Detroit, Riverside Theatre-Milwaukee, Fox Theatre-Detroit. All are pretty large venues, indicating that he was once able to fill large venues.
Maybe because he costs the record label more money than he’s worth? If the music industry was about talent and artistry, then, maybe, I wouldn’t feel the undeniable urge to permanently plug my ears with cement during my retail shift.
middle aged yanks means his fans from yesteryear have stuck with him.
Curious who you think would make a more 'successful' audience? Teenage Russian lesbians perhaps?
“He should refrain from posting photos of himself on his own website during his own tour because I don’t go to his concerts and I don’t like his headline.”
Yeah that's it! Or it could be, He. Doesn't. Make. Anyone. Any. Money. In fact, he is a money loser. He had a chance to be big, '88-'94 and briefly, 2004. That window has closed and the worst part is, he never appreciated how young, talented, and handsome he once was. He was on the proverbial cusp and his insecurities never allowed him to get over the threshold. He is what he is now, a niche' nostalgia act who is trying to stay relevant in a rapidly changing world. The end.
Indeed he was once able to do that. I don’t see many artists today doing that as we both once did, and that’s what I wondering earlier. . . Which artists have been filling large venues more recently, say, in the past 5 years? And which of those artists do you truly want to see and have praise for their work?
Congrats to Morrissey and the band.
