See Hear - review by Johnny Ray Huston, San Francisco Bay Guardian
Morrissey
Live at Earls Court CD (Attack/Sanctuary) Who Put the 'M' in Manchester? DVD (BMG Distribution)
Excerpt:
Close to 20 years ago, I was a Smiths-loving pen friend of Julia Riley, who has gone on to forge a reputation as the ultimate Morrissey aficionado – that flaring rarity, the fan who became the star's friend. My passion over the years hasn't been as consistent as that of Riley, who has followed Morrissey on entire tours. On the new concert DVD, Who Put the 'M' in Manchester?, he repays her devotion with several between-song comments aimed directly at her, as if there was no one else in the packed stadium.

So i'd say she deserves them. It's not as though he doesn't know there's other people in the stadium - it's that he knows that a) a Julia comment is now expected from him at each and every gig, and b) people are going to either think it's really cool that he does so or be really irked by his comments.
He loves this.
Quintessential Moz, it is. Mozzer, thank you for being you...
(Nice review though, if it can be called that, hmm.)
Viva Morrissey!
