Hey Morrissey Fans: I loved everything (including Southpaw, which I understand is a point of contention with fans of his earlier work) but HATED "...Quarry"

Is the 'new' one worth trying?



/Was 'mens-a-mens' with the last Modest Mouse album.

Ill give him my tickets if subby will give up all those extra apostrophes hes carrying around. Hell, that last sentence I wrote needed a couple pretty bad. Subby can keep all the extra hyphens though. I already have-a-surplus-myself.

This is a song that I wrote in a time in my life when I was very, very, very sad.

Breakfast, actually.

It's called "Hairdresser in a Coma."

I cried last night

I died a million deaths

Thinking of your sweet face

And the way you sing

I cried inside

We lied and died

And then I cried again

I must have wept for hours...

Well, I guess I'm going to Houston and scoring scalpers' tickets.

You know, I said in one of the last Morrissey threads I was responsible for that I enjoyed "You Are the Quarry." But it took me about two years to fully enjoy it (though I will admit that "First of the Gang to Die" is one of my favorite songs of all time).
I enjoyed "Ringleader of the Tormenters" after a few months.

But his new CD? I enjoyed it right out.

Well, I hope he doesn't have to pay for them...

alright, why don't you guys tell me why I should waste my one day at coachella watching this guy.

Well, I might be biased, but I've always thought he did a decent cover of The Jam's That's Entertainment. (new window)

I like his new stuff better than his old solo stuff, and the new one rocks.

Dammit, I'm going to the April 10th concert here in Dallas... :)

Hopefully, he'll run out of the audience, jump up on stage and hug Morrissey, just like everyone else does.

Moz cancelled his show in Orlando. At least I got a refund on my tix... but I'm ashamed to say I was heartbroken. Then I got over it.

He's playing on the same stage as McCartney so, at least, you'll get a good spot for Sir Paul and the rumored reunited Beatles (with Ringo and George Harrison's son joining him on stage) Link (new window)

Failing that, the Smiths are one of the most influential groups in music history, and Morrissey, as a solo artist, puts on a pretty good show.

Maybe you'd prefer some tuneless WHAAARGARBL in the Sahara tent.

Okay, I'll blame y'all if I don't like it ;)

Love love LOVE that invention.
