There were quite a few presales for the tour today, did anyone else get tickets?

 

Apparently (at least for the presale anyway) ticketbastard was blocking all Canadian credit cards and billing addresses, so I had to get my one and only American friend (being a border town does help) buy my tickets for me, I wonder if this is Morrissey hating Canadians even more by blocking all Canadians because one province has a seal hunt? But really c'mon Morrissey I bet you've even worn some leather shoes. Nonetheless I will be at the Ann Arbor date and I am quite excited.

Bought this record yesterday and have listened a few times.

 

Too early to say how it ranks with his other solo records, but overall it's a good listen. At least half are very enjoyable.....a nice rockin' vibe and nice Morrissey voice fluctuations.

 

His wit is still intact, but not consistently. Not bad lyrics, but kinda hit and miss. Overall.....I'm glad I spent money on it.

I think it's his best since Vauxhall And I in my opinion. I'm a massive Morrissey fan, but the last 2 albums have always sounded a bit stodgy to me - lacked a musical inspiration. However, it feels a little rougher this time around - he's angry, and it suits him!

Anyone seen him live this tour? I'll be seeing him in about a week.

 

I've read he's been a little surly, off and on. His band sounds to be decent....more rockin' than others.

 

His setlists have basically been identical, give or take one song, and the order changes sometimes. Here's a standard setlist:

 

1. This Charming Man

2. Billy Budd

3. That's How People Grow Up

4. Black Cloud

5. How Soon is Now?

6. Irish Blood, English Heart

7. I Keep Mine Hidden

8. How Could Anybody Possibly Know How I Feel?

9. Ask

10. I'm Throwing My Arms Around Paris

11. Mama Lay Softly on the Riverbed

12. Best Friend on the Payroll

13. When Last I Spoke to Carol

14. Seasick, Yet Still Docked

15. The Loop

16. Death of a Disco Dancer

17. Let Me Kiss You

18. Sorry Doesn't Help

19. Something is Squeezing My Skull

20. I'm OK By Myself

 

(encore)

21. First of the Gang to Die
