[QUOTE="Thewlis, post: 1987257781, member: 1775"] First of all for your ‘argument’ to have any credit you need to compare sales now with those in the past. As it stands it is a very onesided and lazy article. True, in 2018 he sold more tickets in total in London, but these were smaller venues, more to the liking of his fans who are and always have been keener of smaller sized venues. Arena’s only work when you have a hits-show to tour which Morrissey refuses to do. In 1995, exactly 25 years ago this month, at the height of his solo career, he played only small-sized venues during the Boxers-tour. To have thought then that he would play Wembley Arena in 2020 would have been absurd. He is doing really well, internationally, as much as you don’t want to believe it. [/QUOTE]
