boy, does So-low earn this man's ire or what?
Sort of ironic how KY makes her point about how bad this place is by wishing death on its denizens. I don't recall anyone here ever wishing death on Mozzer for the crime of making a shit album or five (which seems to be the main gripe people have here). As a few people pointed out, this won't deter people from visiting this site. Quite the opposite, really
Will always love this man for the music he's made and will continue to make, but I can't understand why, after 30 years in the public eye, he still allows critics and detractors to bother him so much. Opinions don't mean SHIT when they come from people you don't know or don't admire. Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen knew this and never gave a f*** what people thought of them, and look at where they are today: in their 70's and 80's, still touring, still making relevant music, still getting real paid, and still not giving a f***. Mozzer would be wise to take heed of this business model
someone needs to direct KY over to Netphoria.org, where quote-unquote Billy Corgan fans lambaste the man daily, to a much more heated degree than the people here. Or to the Rolling Stones forum, where a vast majority of the fans scorn every step Mick and Keef have taken since Tattoo You in 1980
both places way worse than this place.
As to the point of Morrissey's motivations, I don't think he's upset by it so much as he feels compelled to defend the people who are. I thought the F solo shirt stunt was to appease his band who was being attacked. I could be wrong. Kristeen's taking this stance because it furthers her career to appear to think the same thing as her boss. So punk.
Wow, sure times have changed Moz and his fans. Touring for Oye Estaban, Moz played some small venues in northern California that were far from sold-out – a delight to the fortunate few, who never for once relinquished utter devotion. Santa Rosa especially; I think there were more bouncers around the stage than audience members.
And during this time, the only place online to connect to Moz fans was Morrissey-Solo. The Chat Forum made me feel that I was not alone. If you held Moz in your heart during this time you had a place to unite with others with mutual admiration. Morrissey-Solo was special during this lull in his career. Morrissey should acknowledge David T. for his devotion. I thank David T. so very much. This site (even though I don’t regularly visit anymore) is the “official” Morrissey website.
Love,

I agree, especially when you consider that it was Boz who originally approached Morrissey with the "F Solo" shirts - it wasn't Morrissey's idea. He probably wore the shirts to please Boz/other members of the band who were getting pilloried on here.

People on this site are like American politicians. Either Morrissey is a hard assed boss who forces his band to wear speedos against their will, or he's a softy who agrees to wear a shirt suggested by a band member and in support of his band but which he doesn't personally agree with. He can't be both at the same time.
Kristeen hates this place, Boz hates this place, Moz hates this place, refers to it as 'So Low', wears a shirt telling you to get f***ed, and bans the website owner for life from attending future gigs (even though he's still managed to slip in to a few undercover), and yet some of you still don't seem to get the message. Amazing, really.

Just to chip in , I've disagreed with nothappynotsad about any number of Moz-related topics here. From what I can see, I don't think it's about having a disagreement with nothappynotsad but rather ,the way in which it's had ...
The other night at the show in Roma, KY walked out on stage and my girlfriend is like "didn't Amy Winehouse die six months ago??!"
KY's set was horrible, and not just because she dissed So-Low. NOBODY was into her show in Roma or last night in Genova, for that matter. She sounds like claws on chalkboards, no shit. She does this weird dance stuff while her digital backing track plays and everyone in the audience looks at each other like "Huh??"
the biggest ovation she garners is when she exits the stage after making the audience suffer for eight or nine songs, five of which sound like the SAME piano ballad played slightly different each time.
And that voice. That godawful voice. Guantanamo Bay and the Bush Administration would have had a field day with her five years ago if anybody had a clue who she was
it was a perfectly relevant news article.
This is a woman who is opening for Morrissey, pretty much wishing death on a substantial portion of his fanbase based on the merit that Mozzer and his camp can't take criticism LIKE ALL ARTISTS AND MUSICIANS AND THESPIANS DO
then she has the nerve to show up at these shows with her duller-than-a-donkey's-ass "routine" and expects people to care.
if this place was half as bad as she and Morrissey claim it is, she wouldn't have walked out of Antwerp alive, let alone any of the other shows she's opening.
Instead, we let her come out, screech her eight songs (for lack of a better word) of nothingness, and then leave in one piece. No offense taken; stupid people are the same everywhere
