Because of that earlier incident, I and other 5000 people were forced to see the gig in barriers.
The following day at Yokohama Arena I met Kevin Cummins who was taking photos of fans.
The venue's seating was awful, even thought I got the first row centre ticket, the gap between stage and my seat was about 20 metres.
Morrissey threw his gold lame shirt at me twice. Second time I managed to catch it with my flowers, but an arrogant git on my left stole it from me.
After my protest his girlfriend finally agreed to return the shirt to me. Although I didn't want to give them a piece, I reluctantly did.
I hope the arrogant git was unable to escape from a bad karma.
