Journalists just can't stop mentioning his girth!! Morrissey, Albert Hall, London - The Independent Excerpt: He's older, greyer, and more sorely missed than ever By Fiona Sturges 18 September 2002 They say absence makes the heart grow fonder. It's certainly a fitting adage for our enduring preoccupation with Steven Patrick Morrissey, the erstwhile frontman of the Smiths. From the second he arrives on stage the atmosphere is one of evangelical obeisance. At 43, Morrissey's girth may be a little wider and his hair a little greyer, but his presence still fills a room, even one as big as the Albert Hall. Tonight he's in an unusually chipper mood too, cracking jokes at the expense of the press and the music industry and welcoming us "to an evening of poetry set to music". Maybe the tide is turning for Morrissey once more. In a climate when pop stars are created via televised auditions and decent lyrics are a thing of the past, he's sorely missed.
