i cannot believe moz is playing twice.. i mean how many performers have ever done this, played the same late show, consecutive nights. moz continues to impress.

I doubt Morrissey will actually return Friday to record the next song. According to morrisseytour.com, both songs will be recorded on Thursday and Craiggers will air the second song the following day.

Or WILL Morrissey return Friday?!?!!!???!!??!

I for one got the dreaded "Sorry we're all booked" from the show. But I'm thinking of showing up anyway. Still haven't figured out why yet, so don't ask.

What channel is Craig Kilborn on? What time will the show strt?...Does anyone know? Can someone give me some info...please

How do you know if you are a guess or not for the Thursday Show? Luckily I have not yet received an e-mail from the show. Someone please help!

Can anyone tell me if this show gets aired in the UK. If so what channel?

You, Americans are so lucky! And you deserve it. If the Brits shit all over him of course he's going to go to the place where he is liked. Enjoy it!

I know I'm off the subject, but I was just wondering if anyone attending the Anahiem Show knows of any pre or post parties/hangouts?

I'm curious to know what everyone who watched Monday night's Late Late Show thought of the quality of exposure given to Morrissey. I, for one, was very pleased with Craig's attempt to characterize Morrissey as James Dean if he'd sung. I wasn't sure what to make of the subsequent sketch. I mean, one one hand, it was great exposure for the Best of Morrissey (which I think *is* a very nice compilation), but I was afraid that non-Morrissey fans tuning in would view it as a lampoon: rather like those fake Saturday Night Live commercials. Personally, I don't mind if someone characterizes Morrissey as morose or depressing, so long as it's someone on the inside, and not some ignorant chump on the outside. I came away believing that Craig is one of the good ones. :)

Will there be repeats of the shows leading up to the actual apperance...I gotta get that Snoop interview on tape!

So as it turns out morrissey will be playing two shows on thursday. One will be shown on thurs. and the other on fri. I feel bad for the fans who thought they would be able to see moz twice, not happening. I guess i'm really looking forward to the supposed interview.

All right I am showing up anyway.I know I wont be able to get in but I'm goint to show up.What is the address to where the show is taped?

...two nights are better than one! All of it being taped on Thursday or not! I'm just happy he's on TV! And on an awesome show, to boot! ;)

How is this possible? thats just crazy, in any
case who will attend the second show? the people who got rejected when they first reserved their spot online? i need to go the second day !

Do you guys think Moz will be subjected to the 5 questions? If so what could they be? Guess we'll just have to wait and see. By the way wasn't Snoop's appraisal of Morrissey ("he sharp")hilarious? I know Snoop has no idea who in hell Morrissey is, but he was closer than he could have known.

This would be fine exposure for Morrissey, if only anyone watched this show! I mean, who is the intended audience? People who find "Stuff" magazine too intellectually rigorous, perhaps? Kilborn's ratings suck, he's sexist and he's so very dimwitted he has trouble sputtering out why he even likes Morrissey. When he described him as "a guy from the 80s," I just cringed.

Do you know why he likes Morrissey? Because he thinks of himself as the coolest guy in the room. Well, Craig, thanks for having him on and all, but you're still not cool. You're a pretty dumb jock. Go back to SportCenter.

This is off of CBS's upcoming guests [cbs.com] for Sept 12-13th. It would be interesting to see Ice Cube and Morrissey would do a song together... "The First Of The Gang To Die", anyone?

I just got confirmation for the Craig Kilborn show featuring Morrissey on Thursday- my friend hooked me up to be an audience member after all!!

I had given up after I got the "rejection letter" email like the rest of us... but my pal knows the right people so WOOOOO - HOOOO!

I'm not a Totally Random Moz Fan- but I'll be playing one on T.V.

(sorry I couldn't resist)

ha ha ha

cheers!

Monday night's clips are available for download
mrs shankly's [homestead.com]

not sure how long they'll be up due to limited server space

later.

I would like to thank the people behind the invention of the VCR, especially the ones who thought a record mode was a good idea.. YES, YES IT WAS!!!!

I have been sick for 3 weeks, stuck in my bed, and on my couch, and THIS is my payoff for weeks of watching God awful shows like Passions and Murder, She Wrote. *sniff*, STEVEN, WE ARE READY!!!!

Everyone, I'm watching the Kilborn show right now, and he just confirmed that yes, Morrissey will be performing both Thurs and Friday, as well as sitting for an interview on Thursday. He said Moz would be performing a new song on Thursday and performing "Everyday is like Sunday" on Friday!

...for all us unlucky Non-Americans!! Would anybody be so kind to record the songs performed as well as the interview and upload these clips in a good quality ?! I would be endlessly thankful - Mozaddict

too bad morrisseys not appearing on Conan Obrien instead, Kilborns show sucks. im not trying to diss the show but it is so boring with his lame attempts to be funny and cool. the guys a complete idiot and a dork. conan isnt exactly the cool guy on campus either but at least he's funny and i can bare his show. oh well, the only reason i'll be watching kilborn is to see moz after that its back to Obrian.

I think the little skit that Craig came up with for the Best Of Morrissey was in very poor taste. I took it as almost making fun of Morrissey and his music. Just my opinion of course. Any non Moz fan watching that would assume it was a comedy skit, which it was, and would think of Craig making fun of Morrissey. I think that Snoop Dog was halarious though. "he's sharp" snoop has no idea who Morrissey is. since I work early in the morning I haven't stayed up to watch Craig's show to see what he's been saying about Morrissey, but I think that skit was in very poor taste.

I watched all the video clips from mrs. shankly's website, I watched them backwards, with snoops being first because I knew it would be the funniest. Anyways, after watching the first clip, I don't believe that Kilborn really even likes Morrissey. I think he's trying to get in first before anyone else and say "I was there when no one was supporting him, I was there first, I'm in the know" I'm not buying it. Whatever the case, I'm very excited to see Morrissey on TV, this will generate some interest and hopefully a record will come about from it. I'm very interested to see the interview. what do you guys think?

ok, so I reluctantly turned on Craig just now to see if he would mention anything about Morrissey, and sure enough he did. He spent about 5 minutes describing to the "people of America" who he was and what he was like, in case they weren't familiar. He said witty things like "If James Dean's acting was transformed into music, it would sound like Morrissey", and "If Van gogh's ear were sitting in a cafe, smoking cigarettes..." etc. etc. He then went on to confirm that he was going to be interviewed on Thursday, and performing "Everyday is Like Sunday" on Friday.

WTF? He was talking to Amy Mann and he said something too her like,

"At least you're voice is better than Morrisseys - he sings, like 3 notes" -

She replied "How are you getting him to do your show, if you keep putting him down"

And he said something like "I'm not putting hiim down, his voice is just odd.. "

Umm, this doesn't seem like a good idea - first off... Anybody who has actually listened to Moz knows his voice kicks ass. Why anyone would put it down I don't know. But then, it's like, he knows Moz is sensetive about shit like that - Why would he risk it - I wouldn't feel good about coming on a show, where the guy just said my voice sucked (Which Craig basically said)

Oh well..

Oh Moz I can see my hands covering my face, don't chat to the fool...he is not worthy!!!!!!!cringe time!!!!!!!

I didn't care for the part when they said, "this next sketch is brought to you by Van Gough's(s/) ear, Morrissey's biggest fan. i don't understand craig at all. I think he is too afraid to fully admit he likes morrissey, maybe it's an ego thing. Maybe he is afraid of losing his jock fans. But what he is doing now is his way of saying, Morrissey is awesome. I really don't think he would take the time to run morrissey down this whole week, because he doesn't like him. I think it is just his way of showing his appreciation for the man.

I can't wait until he shows up on Oprah!

Oprah: Why are you so sad?
Morrissey: Why are you so fat?

YEEEE-HAAAAA

Morrissey,do not do it. I think going on the show is a mistake. He said you can't sing. He can't make me laugh. His presence is a Bore. And as you know the World Is Full Of them.Foget him.We will see you in Anaheim.Viva El Pond

O.K. I can’t comment on the Aimme Mann/3 – note thing (because my VCR cut it off) but I just watched my copy of last night’s show on my lunch break and it was hilarious!! Everything in quotes doesn’t mean word for word but real close.

The skit at the beginning that has been referred to (and maybe someone will transcribe it officially) was great! Craig got this happy look on his face as he sat down at his desk and said something like “not to jump ahead but on Thursday, we’re going to have Morrissey.” He asked the audience if they knew who Morrissey was and some clapped, and he said, “that’s what I thought…just a few of you.” He then tried to describe Morrissey and his music AND do a comedy skit trying to one-up his “If James Dean’s acting we’re music, it’d be Morrissey.” He then gave three more…all while “Everyday is Like Sunday” playing loudly in the background.

1.) If Van Gough’s ear were sitting in a French café, smoking, while raining, it’d be listening to Morrissey.

2.) Morrissey’s music evokes the kind of loneliness only a man who hosts a late show at 12:30am on CBS could know.

3.) (this one I hardly remember except for the end) Morrissey’s music is great, meaniful etc. etc “and it might make you look sensitive and get you laid or, at least, a few phone numbers.”

Again, I didn’t see the Aimme Mann thing but since everyone else have given false impressions of what was aired, I bet he said it SARCASTICALLY!! It is only the basis of Kilborn’s entire line of humor. He’s a sarcastic comedian!!! And it’s so obvious he loves Morrissey…airing him twice, talking about him so much, etc. Do Morrissey fans really not have a sense of humor. I’m a HUGE fan and laughed my ass off.

As far as Kilborn being a “jock” or “jock-like” there are some of us who like sports and T & A…deal with it people!

That's what Late Night Show hosts do.. They make fun of people, even their guests. Maybe a lot of Morrissey fans are just totally incapable of humor. I know in my group of friends, we poke fun at each other all the time, there's never any kind of meanness when what we say, that's what late shows are like.

Late Show hosts poke fun at their guests all the time. It's what they do. You all need to grow some skin on your backs, the late show is a comedy show, not some serious show.

Everytime Craig mentions Morrissey, someone says, "who?" and tries to find out who he is.

Humor is something many of you seem incapable of.

I'd like to see all you "cool" people, who are so able to make fun of people who you think are so uncool, like Kilborn based on other posts in this thread.

It's really annoying seeing everyone bash someone who is obviously a die-hard Morrissey fan.

It seems as if a great number of people on this site, seem to think that Morrissey is only someone they relate to, and no one else, god forbid someone you don't approve of likes Morrissey, and expresses their adoration in different way.

Fact is Kilborn is giving YOU FANS something you'll prolly never see again. You people are so ungrateful it's disgusting. I have been coming to this site since it's inception really, and over the last couple years, I have been extremely annoyed at how you all treat other Morrissey fans.

It's like you all wanna bring Morrissey down with you, some band covers a Morrissey, or Smiths song? Some of you just bash the shit outta the band.

Hello?! We all like the same person, why have such animosity towards someone you don't even know, but you know they atleast have one thing in common, a love of Morrissey.

I posted the Anonymous "What REALLY Hapenned" and I couldn't agree with these last two posts more!! Some people here...I'm at a loss! EX: a post from earlier...

yah that makes perfect sense. Don't go on a show that is giving you more exposure to the US then you could have EVER hoped for, esspecially when you have no label.

Yah I'm sure Craig really thinks Morrissey can't sing, that's why he is giving him two songs, on TWO NIGHTS, and an interview, all of this with NO LABEL. I don't think Morrissey could be anymore lucky with this.

I hope your post was sarcastic, cause if not, I think you may need to hang yourself.

Someone responded to this with "you're a moron..." Yeah, o.k. whatever...

Here's what was said-

(in the midst of praising Aimee Mann's voice)
CK: Your voice. Well, it's better than Morrissey's voice. Morrissey's, Morrissey's 3 notes.

AM: How are you getting him to come on your show while insulting him?

CK: I'm not insulting him. I'm celebrating his oddness. (and he was being serious as far as I could tell)

And I think he was trying to praise Aimee Mann rather than putting Morrissey down. Actually, it seemed more like he was at a loss of how to properly describe how Morrissey sings and just spat it out.

like most major production studios, they have extremely tight security.

Most likely they will have a list of all participants who will attend the kilborn show as a security check before anyone enters the CBS lot AND there will be mostly 3 different security checkpoints as well.

i dont think there will be a 300 + line waiting outside the kilborn studion, rather, only the ones who didnt recieve the dreaded email and are in the list.

i think the whole van goghs ear thing and the comment about how odd moz is not right, he s obviously insulting him and whoever doesnt see that need too.

Craigers if fucking hilarious. I think most of you have no idea what subtle comedy is. I hated him for the longest time until I finally realized that the whole thing is a joke. Conan hasn't got shit on Kilborn.

Kilborn plays the smarmy, jock as a ROLE. It is double funny because half the audience thinks that it is real, while the other half gets the joke.

From what I've heard Craig has a family in real life and is very private.

Regarding moz - why the fuck do you dumbfucks think he would have him on the show two fucking nights in a row. How often do you fucking fucks see that? Not too fucking often.

Moz rocks. Kilborn rocks. Most of you are losers.

Have never seen this Kilborn person, but from what I've seen of the sketches etc.I don't think I really want to.
This is what happens when an artist like Morrissey prostitutes himself on the appalling vacuous braindead tripe that is the American media.
But I can't blame him.He's on the publicity merry-go-round.

From his tour diary:

"So Craig Kilborne tomorrow, watched it last night, mmmmmmmm - interesting. "

If Kilby says anything stupid to Moz like "Hey there 80's man, you asexual weirdo, how's the celibacy going, still miserable? Well it's great to have you here even though you can only sing 3 notes and aren't as good as Aimee Mann..." I hope Boz will stab him with his guitar a la Meat Is Murder.

his hole point is sarcasm.....wait....this is probably being replied to in large part by Americans....now I know why few people get it.......

Im gonna have a long night and day. Now I have to stay up and record Moz, goe to work at the butt crack of dawn, and then off to see Moz at the Arrowhead Pond....only to come back home to record him again on CBS.... Being a Morrissey Fan Rules!!!
