This thread is awesome.

Well, it's not very active, but Morrissey's unexpected accrual of his Latino following is, for me, as a Hispanophile, one of the great triumphs of his career, and this commemorative event is a nice signifier.

I could be romanticizing things, but I hope it is all beautiful swarthy youths with jet black hair and multifarious tattoos and smoky mascara, "the Juarez boy-chicks and butch-bitch diesel dykes," with exclusively vegan catering and First of the Gang to Die. But then, it could be plump middle-aged non-entities wandering around munching on beef burritos and cheering the occasional "woo-hoo," with Knockabout World and Jacky's Only Happy blaring from cheap speakers. I will nevertheless keep to my hopes.
 
Will we get glimpses of the party on here, FWD?

I'd love to.
