Not true my friend. Might be the case now? not sure, BUT, Abrahan & I BOTH have signed Smiths items(cd covers) from Morrissey, when we met him in '03. Infact, he told Abrahan(upon seeing a "Louder than Bombs" cd cover),"Thats actually my favorite".
His stance could very well be that way now, but he didnt seem to mind it, both times I met him. He couldn't have been any nicer to me either time, a sweetheart of a guy. Such a kind & generous man. Class all the way. The way he was to us both times, will ALWAYS be one of the reasons I love him and his music so much.
One of the funniest back and forths from the second encounter(Me to Morrissey):" Morrissey, I wrote you a letter, but i dont have it on me, would it be ok, with your permission of course, if I were to put it in your mailbox later some time?

I said "really?" he said "No, not really...sounded good though huh?" he was totally joking, and we all cracked up from laughing. He then said it would be fine if I brought it back, which I did later, and stuck it in his mailbox, along with a couple Oscar Wilde books, and a pin(badge) that reads"It's Morrissey's world, we just live in it". I thought, after seeing that, he'd smile. Hope he got it all, Im sure he did.
He even remembered me the second time, "You're that Big something"(I shot back a "Big Jeff"), he said "Right, Big Jeff, how are you"?(Thats about the time I had to be picked up off the ground from nearly passing out, that he remembered me-j/k).
I truly do love him.
on him, and 
: him out. The guy would drop the CD and turn to run and Morrissey would 
him and tell the guy he is 
from ever coming to any of his shows again. Then Morrissey would pick up the CD and

him down and then Morrissey would run off and
