chris evans comments in 99

[the topless tandoori]

on the morning of the leeds town and country gig in 99 i was driving to work listening to virgin awful radio when chris evans started listing that evenings gigs , i think his actual words were "morrissey plays leeds town and country tonight but i wouldnt bother to go see him cos hes past it"
if i was moz i would tell the smarmy c*** to stick his radio 2 show up his ginger arse or maybe moz would like to raise the subject of his 1999 comments
(the gig was ace bye the way)

I don't know the year but Morissey did an appearance on TFI Friday, he performed Satan Rejected My Soul.

Chris Evans introduced him as "The finest living Englishman"

I guess he changed his mind !!

put this in yer piper and smoke it..

I was at that Leeds gig back in '99'
It was a great night...i remember it very well, anyway Chris Evans can f*** off either way in my opinion...the tomato soup headed twat. Who said Ginners aren't winners anyway?....maybe i should know.
Back to that gig, it's quite ironic really as i remember telling people then about that gig who just seemed to shrug or seemed to think he had passed it, however they recently nearly broke their necks in trying to get tickets for this impending tour...funny that.

btw 'the topless tandoori'..that's such a good name. *miners hat off*

I think it was just sour grapes on the part of Evans cos I remember reading somewhere that Evans rated Morrissey as one of his worst guests on TFI due to Morrissey not leaving his dressing room during the recording and being aloof in general.

you're all wrong.

I remember that Leeds show well, its one of the few that has never really turned up as a bootleg unfortunately.

I suppose the Ginger One does come across as a bit of a c*** but he has rare moments of wit

I was at the Leeds 199 show - last Moz gig I went to - have never been in the same place as one since.

It was a great gig, but it's strange to think about it now. Went with my then girlfriend, and now here I am 7 years later, married to a different girl and living on the other side of the world.

I seem to remember a group of about 3 16 year-old boys who were basically acting like little c***s throughout the show - one of them was trying to kiss the woman in front of him (she was about twice his age) and was told to settle down by various members of the crowd - he got on stage later and was manhandled by security, prompting Moz to say "steady on" mid-song - if only he knew what the little bastard was like, he might have waded in on him himself.

Otherwise, a great gig.
