Morrissey at Teaneck show (The Roxy, Feb. 15, 2005)

My friends in a band named Teaneck were playing at the Roxy tonight but I was unable to go and watch them. While I was home my friend called me and said that Morrissey was there... I ran into every wall in my apt. trying to get to the front door. Morrissey was sitting in a booth with a man and a woman - watching the bands. The table directly next to him opened-up and I sat down next to him. I introduced myself as politely as I could (I wanted to be as little a bother as possible) - I asked him if he could sign something and then asked if I could get a photo. He pleasantly agreed to both. My face in the photo tells exactly what I was thinking.

                                    And a camera.

                                                        THAT is an EPIC story. But let me tell you something: It's not the story itself that is funny, it's the picture. I mean, the story means nothing without that. Hilarious.

                                                        I want to say something else: Any time you can get a sig from someone you admire is great. Hell, i'd take Moz's sig (if I didn't have it already) on a paper napkin with a pencil instead of nothing at all. But you gotta be careful with those silver markers. I've meet a few celebrities and gotten some sigs from athletes, and my experience with them is not good. The silver ink is thicker than your traditional black or blue so after it dries, the chances are higher that it will break off. Now, it's been some years since i've autograph hunted so things may have changed. As far as I know, Mark, you may want to take extra care of that cd book. Not that you were going to wipe your mouth with it or anything, but I would frame it immediately. I mention this not really for Mark, but for any of you clones want your "Moddiccby" and have the time to get a pen or marker and cd, you won't make the same mistake I did before.

                                                        Lastly, instead of baiting some of the primates of this website with a worthless observation, i'll give you ALL a chance to vote for the best caption for
