Morrissey Archives

The Mighty Mozzer retired after just five songs last night in Boston, due to "David Letterman throat."

According to reports, the Boston show will be rescheduled at a later date and all tickets from last night will be honored at the new show. Tonight's show in Northampton, MA has also been canceled. Check Live Nation's website for rescheduling news.

Hopefully Moz bounces back real quick-like, since I just added Homdel, NJ to my Morrissey road trip, which is scheduled to start Friday in Philly. *shudder*

There's more to life than Morrissey, you know, but not much more.

[Many thanks to proud new poppa Brad from Bradley's Almanac for the heads up. As if he didn't have enough things going on...]

The Mighty Mozzer turns 48 today.

Also tonight is the NBA Draft Lottery (looking at this just makes me shudder) and the *sniff* series finale of Veronica Best. I'll be DVRing the latter, however, as I'll be at the Rock n' Roll Hotel taking in locals Le Loup (just signed to Sub Pop imprint Hardly Art) and The Rosebuds.

Also, let me be the latest person to congratulate D.C.'s own Georgie James for signing with Saddle Creek Records. That's huge! New record later this year. Can't wait!

I get all jump-up-and-down happy whenever I think about the very real chance of doing this in two months. I just hope that he 1) keeps "Disappointed" and "National Front Disco" in the set and that he 2) doesn't play either of them in the first three songs of the set because I would rather not be working when I spontaneously combust with joy.

Yes, I am filled with anticipation, and it is most delicious.

PS - the new slideshow interface on Flickr is pretty cool, but it's running real slow for me so far.

PPS - I just realized he played "You're Gonna Need Someone On Your Side" last night. Holy Fucking Shit.

Spaced on the Baltimore pre-sale. Anyone have any luck?

Looks like I have to try again on Saturday.

PS - Tickets are $65! Jeezy Creezy.

W00t!

Consider me jump-up-and-down happy.
