I am writing you concerning a fist fight that Morrissey got into with Johnny Witmer of the punk band The Stitches. They met at a bar in LA and the ensuing fight took place. The Stitches are a punk band from LA, California and they have a new 12" EP that just came out on Kapow Records.

    wow! Check out his gut!! (Score:0)
    I knew this was too good to be true. (meaning a real fist fight). I like Moz'z gut, though. It matches well with the other picture I saw on the General Discussion board of his dirty fingers!

    I just met him in California this summer and he looks exactly like this picture...(alittle gray on the sides; longer hair on top). I think he looks as handsome as ever. Moz, you are so beautiful.

      ....is SO not fake! I mean the picture isn't, the fight probably yet is! I can imagine the guys sitting together over a beer, suddenly thinking up how awfully funny it would be to pose for a picture pretending to have a fight. That's it.

              Jesus, so Moz doesn't look like he use to O.K!, we all know that by now, why is it so important that he does? people do change their appearance over time you know. He looks just as darn good as he use to. He is bound to look older over the years. Moz is very fortunate to look as wonderful, great, and so damn SEXY as he does as he matures over the years, not everyone has such a gift, look at Marlon Brando!, he looks nothing like himself!

                                unless he was Hercules or Bruce Lee (as he has this nifty move where his body is in one place, but has one quick handmotion that will knock you down and is supposedly incredibly hard to do), he can't stand there like that and knock some guy's teeth out (a guy, might I add, who has the goofiest expression on his face). And on top of that, the guy's head would have jerked back unless he:

                                1. has no lower brain function that would have reacted against pain and pulled back

                                sheesh. it probably wasn't photoshop, or can't some people understand the fact that maybe people do bump into moz and they do goofy poses with him for photographs?
