Drenched with Sweat

I have never been so wet and knackered after a gig ever..sweat was dripping off the ceiling it was wonderful.
What an atmoshere, Rock City seemed twice as full as I had ever seen it..absolutely heaving.
Spoke to Spike 20 minutes before he was due on stage..very friendly guy.
The gig itself well I thought Mozza was very talkative throughout..a couple of examples well.. He Introduced Now my Heart Is Full as 'this song is called Growing Up in Public'.Towards the end after a chorus of the Morrissey chant he said tiredly 'thank you I'll miss the song..paused for one second and said..I missed it!' I don't know why he seems so tired of it as he used to encourage it.
When it was over everyone's arms were in the air clapping..it was a fantastic ovation, really loud.
The pace and balance of the set seems better and the addition of a couple more songs has meant I think people are going away far happier than in recent years where you have been able to sense disappointment that it was percieved as too short and over so quickly but then I've always been happy - quality rather than quantity I say!
