Morrissey pays tribute to Syd Barrett at Benicāssim
And wraps himself in the Spanish flag
Morrissey paid tribute to the legendary Syd Barrett at the Benicāssim Festival in Spain tonight (July 22). The star dedicated 'I'll Never Be Anybody's Hero Now' to the former Pink Floyd singer, who died earlier this month (July 7).
Morrissey also wrapped himself in the Spanish flag, changed his shirt three times, and made a wry reference to pulling out of the bash at the last minute in 2004.
He said: "Thank you for turning up this year. Very good of you."
The set was taken mainly from new album 'Ringleader Of The Tormentors' , but the crowd on the Escenario Verde were also treated to four Smiths classics - set opener 'Panic', 'Still Ill', 'Girlfriend In A Coma' and 'How Soon Is Now?'.
