How to spot…Morrissey fanatics
By Christina Couch
Identifying characteristics Vintage Morrissey or Smiths concert tees (complete with sweat from an actual show back in the ’80s), Morrissey-mimicking pompadours, oversized sunglasses, a watch on each wrist, sexual ambiguity
Where to find them Danny’s (1951 W Dickens Ave, 773-489-6457) every fourth Tuesday, for Smiths night; the last Wednesday of each month at Abbey Pub (3420 W Grace St, 773-478-4408, abbeypub.com, $10 cover) to hear the Handsome Devilz play; Delilah’s (2771 N Lincoln Ave, 773-472-2771, delilahschicago.com) for sporadic Morrissey nights throughout the year
Music Androgynous synth-pop. Think low voices, depressed lyrics and drum-machine beats. Signature groups include the Smiths and Morrissey (duh), as well as Joy Division, Depeche Mode, Mighty Mighty, the Sundays and the Organ.
Important terms
Moz Nickname for the man himself. Also called the Pope of Mope, the Sage of Salford
Moz Angeles Though he no longer lives there, L.A. is still the epicenter of Morrissey cover bands
The Importance of Being Morrissey Quintessential documentary for Moz fans, available on YouTube.
I especially like "Wackadoodle's comment
My partner is a morrissey fanatic, as are most of her friends. They are all lunatics and seriously f***ed up, there are plenty of things to make fun of about them. This description is just lazy and dated. Way to fail at mediocre humor.
