Post your pics of Mozz landmarks!

[little stripey socks]

The Hacienda, Whitworth Street, Manchester. Rumoured to be the nightclub Mozz was singing about when he sang, 'there's a club if you'd like to go...' ('How soon is now?') as he owned a Hacienda membership card, and regularly attended, in the early 80's.

The YWCA (London) ('half a person')

 

[Please]

The Thames isn't even mentioned in there. It must be a constant source of embarrassment to you that people here claim you're the author.

Is the gym in bethnal green mentioned? Whitechapel/mileend road?

Yes, York Hall in Bethnal Green (or Beffnul Gween) on the corner of Cambridge Heath Road and Old Ford Road. It is where the 'Boxers' video was filmed.

and doesn't exist anymore!

Also, the Smiths played there in the their early career.

yeah... I may be wrong, but wasn't that the first gig where Morrissey showered the audience with flowers?

a mate of a mate owns the Hacienda DJ desk- he's got it in his living room; they auvtioned off a lot of the furniture when it closed. Quoth my mate, 'what the hell did you buy that for?!'; him- 'it's the Hacienda!' my mate- 'you're an idiot!'

Have you got any 'pictures' that you have taken?

no... er, I probably shouldn't mention this, but I did have some old photos of Mozz from the Stretford days, that I aquired when I er... stole his trash once in the late 1980's... there were about 3, torn into quarters, but I stuck them back together again. I threw them out a year later, when I developed a conscience, and I would not do that thing again today!

Morrissey on one of the mosaic murals on the outside of Affleck's Palace shopping arcade. Not strictly a Mozz landmark, but I think it may be on the 'Smiths tour of Manchester'...

love the pic, ella-reflex
