WOW…. Anybody watch The Smiths gig
On BBC 4??
Absolutely brilliant…. I wonder why he left the stage during miserable lie.
"At some point during "Miserable Lie" Morrissey was hit in the eye by a flower, dropped his microphone to the floor and left the stage. The band finished the song mostly as an instrumental. Morrissey returned to the stage on time for the ending of "I need advice, I need advice", adding at the end "and so do you!" for the rowdy audience. He remained playful following this, but Johnny Marr later said in an interview that this was his most embarrassing moment. Actually in the 1985 programme for the Meat Is Murder tour, he said this concert was his 'greatest embarrassment'."
FWD.

I think that gives some more insight into why Johnny refuses to tour with Morrissey again - leaving the stage after being hit with a flower? He's said the lead singer should be someone strong and dependable who carries the show like Chrissie Hynde or Matt Johnson. By the way, tonight is Johnny's last show with James in the US/Canada, not one missed show despite illness in both bands, they powered through.
