‘Morrissey and Wine’ podcast: Ian Hodgson - “Morrissey was my friend. A ‘nice’ guy? No. He was more than that”

The latest episode of the ‘Morrissey and Wine’ podcast features an interview with an old friend of Moz, Ian Hodgson, who wrote the original version of ‘Skin Storm’. His band Bradford also opened for Moz at the first solo gig. It’s a great behind-the-scenes insight.

Nanny Val returns to react to ‘Let Me Kiss You’. She says she’s really getting into the music and describes him as a “true poet”.

There’s another ten-question Moz trivia quiz and we dissect the meanings of Maladjusted, All The Lazy Dykes and A Swallow On My Neck.

This is a really great podcast, well worth a listen.
 
Great chat with Ian Hodgson. He's a friendly generous interviewee. Interesting to hear how Stephen Street is involved these days in putting Bradford's music out. At 1:43 he comments on writers like Zoe Williams from the Guardian, who are possibly jealous and abusing their positions to try to take outspoken successful people like Morrissey down a peg.

One thing: when quoting songs, best not to assume the lyrics are his thoughts or statements, but rather, that lines can just as well emanate from characters being brought to life in the songs. And Arm your Ears is a good find. :rock:
 
How strange Morrissey's surroundings are There seems to be activity.. New threads that someone handles It's really weird the atmosphere at Moz's I don't know how to describe it ... Things happen, there are changes. Someone knows or intuits something
 
another good one from the boys and nanny val,good to finally put an end to this nonsense about M making this list for the front row,its done by the people who are at the front of the queue and it doesnt matter if its your hundredth show or your first,its designed so you can leave the queue for food or the toilet so you dont lose your place,i think its a quite sensible thing but some on here think its designed to have the same people at the front for every show.

It makes sense that those who put in the effort get on the list. On night one in Vegas right after the show ended, the names on the night one list were automatically being rewritten on the night two list although the people were not there or lined up again for the next show. New people who showed up for the new list/queue for night two were turned away if their name wasn’t on the night one list at that point. With only five people there, the list was already “closed”. That’s why there was some confusion over how the list functions and why it gave the wrong impression possibly.
