I found some really cool Morrissey clips from the Kill Uncle tour in the LA area and posted them to LA Weekly's blog West Coast Sound.

    ah the days of Request Video, Richard Blade, the Poorman, and Gia. Lining up all night long outside of Music Plus or the Wherehouse to buy tickets. Where have the years gone?

          I think the honking after the Forum gig was Jed. Poorman in the mornings those late 80s days was heaven. Rodneys on I think at midnite til 2/3am on Sunday nights. On the weekend I listen to Blades show sometimes. When they used to have the "London Calling" seg. Id imagine whatever band he'd play to look like Ian Mc. of the Echo & The bunnymen. I too dreamed of going to England, I was 13-15...I had just fully transitioned from crap/pop music (jj fad/Lisa Lisa/Stacy Q/rick astley etc lol etc.) to "New Wave", and KROQ was the perfect outlett. At one point they had Rodney on in the mornings for a while or after school (3/5pmish)..NOW its all "KOKROCQ"....Poorman does a "bikini show" on KDOC on saturday nights...

          this was his best band he ever had, look at the
          drummer Spencer 'animal ' Cobrin, and as Boz a legend himself Alain Whyte, and the only man who
          swinged erorit on stage Gary 'tattoo on his neck'
          Day

          adding a keyboar etra percussion was a good move,
          made the sound better, but wished the same Lads
          growed with Morrissey, but Morrissey seems to
          have some principles which why Day and Cobrin
          had to leave, Alain still in camp Moz though would like he picked up the guitar and do a few
          live shows for the Whyte Army
