In fairness the band probably had what....? 5 or 6 weeks to prepare / practice. How many songs do you think 3 new members can learn and perfect in that time?

That really depends on the ability of the band.

It's the whale Sad Glamour gave him.

Has he said anything that can be interpreted as genocidal?

Is she the new Julia?

 

[Viva Las Vegans]

It is a bit odd though that over 5 nights the set list changes are minimal. If he's trying to get a deal you would have thought he would play a couple of the new songs. Without wanting to kick of a shit storm about New Order being crap, sucky or anything else, on their 4 night Miami residency last year they played 34 different songs.

And, by my count Morrissey has played 30 different songs over these three shows...

New Order is fine, great, legendary...but how many people would be let down if they didn't play "Bizarre Love Triangle" "Blue Monday" or "covered" a Joy Division song during their set? You have to appeal to the first-timers, the casual and the non-fanatics as well.

I was there last night and HSIN? EDILS Tomorrow and Shoplifters had the entire crowd excited, engaged and chanting Morrissey's name during the encore break.

The goal of a performer is to leave the audience satisfied and not a single person there seemed to be (truly) disappointed. Only complaints seem to be coming from here. He's 62, alive and still singing--what more do we need?

I don't think so.

What's a sad Glamour? Is that the whale ? Whats Morrissey supposed to do with it ? Sing, "Your the one for me fatty."

She's a grupie. Julia is stalking now Ted Nugent.

Back seat drivers (& over zealous fanatics) are always the worst. Moz is doing a sterling job over there.

 

[Tom]

Yikes. Imagine flying in and paying hundreds (if not more) for a ticket to hear this pathetic, 20 song setlist.

 

[Morrissey's left nut]

Imagine if the final Vegas show is all of either IANADOAC or Bonfire played in their entirety. Hopefully he plans on going out with a bang.

That would certainly bang the folks who paid for a ticket, that's for sure

 

[Paul Andrews]

Can someone please ask Jessie to stop the gurning throughout every solo. Alan doesn't pull faces does he? It always appears that Jesse has an obstructed bowel. It is unsightly and not at all dignified. Last night I thought he was trying to rub his own face off.

 

[Vegan Cro Spirit .888]

Is she the new Julia?

right on time, Comrade McMuffin dis.
she doesnt know who any of these peeps are
she just reads random posts here and on the twitter, and then
runs with it

It's a badge in the shape of a whale that a woman who Tweets under the name Sad Glamour gave to Morrissey in Vegas.

She's a nice person. Very sweet & funny.

I am happy for anything he sings. I can’t be the only one. I am so overjoyed he’s even there singing. I can’t be the only one. What the hell are you guys always complaining about the setlist? It’s frankly bizarre.

All the livestream stuff I’ve seen so far has been unbelievingly amazing!!

He is wearing a suit, and tie, and looks like the quarry era. Alain is playing guitar. Sigh. If this is a dream, I don’t wanna wake up.

You're not the only one who has noticed these things.

Well done for posting

He played 28 different songs over 3 nights so far.
At the Broadway residency, he played 36 different songs spread over 7 nights.
Not sure that the new band line-up has much of an impact on the number of different songs he play, Solomon and Alain have played many of these songs before.

Spot on.
9/11- One day in America- on t.v.
every night.
Sure puts Morrissey and his pathetic act into stark contrast when you hear his bleatings whilst other men telling their stories.
Just f*** off Morrissey and grow up.

I try to like Morrissey but deep inside I know he's a right knob head.

 

[Lujissey.]

I probably should have added that the picture is from 2012 and was taken when he received the keys to Tel-Aviv. But I think that it's cute that he reuses earlier outfits. I am still a little disappointed that he hasn't worn an Elvis jumpsuit (yet).

Ok equally I think Moz looks great, he's very cute in that suit, currently I wouldn't change anything to Morrissey except:Wide jeans, tank tops, and hair up not so white... these are the no for Moz,
What Moz should wear in my opinion: narrow jeans, dress pants, T-shirts With sleeves, shirts, and the hair has to be nuanced, I mean that at the top, where the jopo is, it must darken it with an ash dye, but very subtle
