Oh, I haven't been to very many. I became a fan in about 2001, during the Great Morrissey Drought. Although I'm from L.A., when he toured some states in the American West in 2002, I was in school in New York and couldn't go. My first show was in April 2004 (22 April I think), at the third show on the Quarry tour, the first of the truly incredible five-night string at the Wiltern in L.A. (Seriously, there was no turning back after that.) Total, I've now been to 10, 8 shows on the Quarry tour (all in so. Cal), plus Tulsa and Oklahoma City this tour. I hope to be able to see him about 8 times total on this tour too. Been budgeting for it since I heard the album!! Fortunately us Americans have a bit more time to plan!
