The Last of the International Playboys


The boys are still at SXSW. Today they kept instant messaging me to say how exited they all were for the Morrissey concert...and now I am officially pissed I didn't go to SXSW.

The last time I saw Morrissey my hair was fire engine red and you know what? That was a long time ago. I wonder what he will sing and if he is still depressed and all. DRM said seeing Morrissey may make him feel old but I disagree. There is so much from my past musically and cosmically floating around me lately I think it actually could be a positive omen.

An omen that says "wave that freak flag high" and "be proud of the angst you so defiantly threw about in your youth" because sometimes a good dose of the past can put your present shit in perspective.

Right?

Comments:
it did make us feel old, especially since we only really wanted to hear the old stuff, which is so VH1 CLASSICS of us. but he was great and if i could age as gracefully as him I'd be a lucky man.
 
i saw morrissey march 13th at tulsa's cain's ballroom and it was such a surreal experience to see him play a show in t-town. did 4 smiths songs and i was shocked just how much morrissey sweat on stage! but, like the good rock "god" he is he'd wipe the sweat on the gleeful fans at the front of the show. i had a great time as i'd never seen him or the smiths play.
