little patti smith thrown in before HSIN.. "The people have the power"
 
Anyone see that fight in the pit just after the concert ended? Seemed to involve a girl and a guy and there was a big lump of someones hair on the ground afterwards. Security eventually got involved and looked like they ejected them. Not sure what started it maybe something thrown from the stage.
 
It was fantastic in general. My 3rd Moz consert in 6 years. He still has wonderful voice and performance. The set list was nice, truly covering most of the expectations. "I know it's over", "Meat is Murder", "Last Night I Dreamt that Somebody Loved Me" live versions were excellent. But he seemed to lose some power and momentum a little. I wish to see faster and more powerful performances. There were too many pauses, up tempo and down tempo songs one after another; very little quotes and conversations. There were around 5000 people, sold out venue, however I doubt 80% of the crowd didn't know about Moz at all, they sat there and made observations. There were interesting moments though; one young lady made it to the stage and hugged him during maladjusted, moz helped her did not pause singing and one little girl given to the stage, moz carried her and continued singing. The setlist as far as i remember:

How soon?, Everyday sunday, you killed, fatty, maladjusted, paris, i know its over, carol, alma matters, black cloud, people are same, to give reason, last night i dreamt, speedway, meat is murder, kiss you, far off places

This setlist is definitely not in the right order.
Encore was "I Will See You In Far-Off Places"
 
That little girl is beyond adorable (& so is Morrissey). On what song did she achieve this (I hope it wasn't meat is murder, she looks too happy)?
 
The concert finished with 'Let me kiss you' really? What a way to limp away and encourage some noise for an encore. No wonder I cant get rid of my tickets for the manc gig.

It was probably the best gig I've seen in Istanbul, his voice was on top form. I beg to disagree with the post above saying 80% of the crowd didn't know much about Morrissey, what I saw was people were singing along, cheering, showing love for Moz. I still can't get over the fact that he sang Still Ill which is my all time favourite the Smiths song along. I Know It's Over hit me pretty hard, I'm sure many got emotional during that song. I wish everyday's a Morrissey concert, and I'm proud to say now that life is complete!
By the way the setlist is not in right order as mentined above.
