It has just been confirmed that Morrissey will appear (for the first time) in Israel on July 29th as part of his European greatest hits tour. As 'we' were waiting for the man for over 20 years, it will definitely be sold out!!

"On the road with Dylan, Morrissey and Eeyore" - "Gig" by Simon Armitage book review in The Guardian
posted by davidt on Sunday April 13 2008, @11:30PM

Book review by Adam Mars-Jones - The Guardian

Gig
by Simon Armitage

Review excerpt:

The Smiths were a much more natural part of youth for someone of Armitage's vintage, and the best account of a concert in the book is of Morrissey at King George's Hall, Blackburn, in 2006. There's an exquisite description of the star's body, 'with his waiter's hips and his builder's shoulders', and a shrewd analysis of the way Morrissey's oeuvre can tap into the self-pity of even the most robust male character. (It always seems to be male.)
