This is the Lisbon venue: Coliseu de Lisboa. A narrow street for a wonderful building...


These are the posters we displayed at the front during the concert. Morrissey said: "Thank you very much for all this..." referring to them "I really love this one!" referring to the "Kill Uncle" one. I brought that one back home of course.

 














All of these were taken during the Lisbon concert. Some of them are a bit... dodgy. Anyway, one gets a pretty good view of one of the security guys... There were five of them and, right before the encore, their number almost doubled. Yes, all with that wonderful... muscles... My camera was taken away by a man from inside when I was preparing to take some photos of Morrissey's performance during "Meat Is Murder". Thought I'd never see it again... Started crying... Oh well, but they were nice in the end and I managed to get it back!!! With the film still in it, which was amazing!!! Some of the photos were taken by Aurélio's camera. Anyway, enjoy...









Lisbon setlist






Miguel managed to get the banana and the second t-shirt of the show in one piece!!! He never ever lets himself be photographed, but he was kind enough to let us take a few pictures with the two items. The t-shirt smelt very very nice. Morrissey's sweat is like perfume or something...


After the show, we were just hanging around when the band suddenly appeared. They signed autographs and were very nice to everyone. They seemed happy. Gary looks very nice, although I took the picture in the dark, because he was inside the van. We talked to every one of them for a while and then they all went inside the vehicle. As it went away, everyone spontaneously started applauding. It was a very beautiful moment.



















The Lisbon ticket (with which I made a t-shirt for the show) and the autographs of the band on the back.
