Might be interesting to see how members would address Morrissey directly.
Do you think he is hitting the vodka, Peppy? It might explain his erratic behaviour.Dear Morrissey
Well, that went well, didn't it? Have you worked it out yet? Your core audience is left wing, and they're really cross. What's that? You didn't know? Oh, Morrissey *sigh* They have been really tolerant over the years. They bit their tongues when you grossly insulted the entire Chinese population. They stuck by you when you made tasteless remarks about the Norway killings. They even took it on the chin when you acted like a complete twat after the Paris atrocity. But they drew the line at the dodgy ramblings of Anne Marie Waters. Morrissey, you have crossed the Rubicon.
Of course you can have a different point of view to the multitudes in the Twittersphere. But not if you want them to buy your concert tickets and shit albums in any large number. There's your dilemma: self-styled Arbiter of Truth and mouthpiece for a shonky political party; or poet for the lonely and dispossessed. The two are not, I am afraid, compatible.
So unless you want to be permanently playing South America for the rest of your life, here are a few suggestions.
1. Say sorry
2. Invite Dave Haslam over for cauliflower cheese - and get the Guardian along to take photos
3. Sack your band
4. Hire some new musicians who might challenge you with some decent music
5. Take some time out to write some decent songs - none of this 'We turn up to the studio and it's all cobbled together by lunchtime' malarkey
6. Lay off the vodka and get out more
7. Call Johnny Marr. He's still really good on the guitar but he can't write a song to save his arse. I feel you could be good for each other.
I think there's a strong possibility. Noel Gallagher has spoken of him having three quarters of a pint of vodka before an Oasis gig https://www.morrissey-solo.com/thre...morrisseys-drinking-abilities-gigwise.128300/ Anybody who can consume that amount is not a casual social drinker.Do you think he is hitting the vodka, Peppy?

He doe seem to exhibit certain characteristics such as only being able to think short-term, lack of narrative in List Of The Lost, sometimes being self absorbed and a bit paranoid..........I think there's a strong possibility.

I suppose there could be lots of reasons for those behaviours. But List of the Lost was definitely written while imbibing somethingHe doe seem to exhibit certain characteristics such as only being able to think short-term, lack of narrative in List Of The Lost, sometimes being self absorbed and a bit paranoid..........
An open letter to the grumpy old man at the pub who brings the whole room down with his political grumpery and general assholism-
We liked having you at the pub a lot better when you'd just lead the singalong.
Now you just fill the air with cabbage farts and grumpy harrumphing.
So either give us a tune, or stay home because you're bringing us down.
Regards-
