Morrissey served not believe monarchists
LONDON - With his right index finger still in the dressing for a dog bite, gave the former Smiths singer Morrissey Friday night sold out concert at the Music building in Eindhoven.
Photo: NU.nl / Harrij.Stekel van der Burg Netherlands, we only once a performance of The Smiths to witness. On March 21, 1984, the band played in the Meervaart Amsterdam. In 1987, the Mancunians contracted by Pinkpop headlining, but The Smiths broke up before it ever got so far. Shame, still, after all these years.
Barely twenty years later, in June 2006, Morrissey took his performance at Pinkpop in yet. Morrissey has since visited the Netherlands several times and every time did the former frontman of The Smiths have cult status afloat. With his performance in the Music building in Eindhoven is no different.
The singer will be hailed as a demigod. He sings about the tedium of everyday life in opener Everyday Is Like Sunday, and one of his finest songs. Immediately followed by another crowd favorite, There Is A Light That Never Goes Out, perhaps the most popular song of 25 years old album The Queen Is Dead.
About Beaten
Apart from There Is A Light That Never Goes Out Morrissey plays a few indie classics from his former band. No less than usual by the way, but typical Smiths songs such as Panic, This Charming Man, Bigmouth Strikes Again be beaten.
Instead prefer to choose Morrissey album tracks. The selection of his solo material is not so much focused on his most famous work, although he You Have Killed Me and You're The One For Me, Fatty pleases almost everyone. A boy who jumps on stage, is the security again forcefully pushed.
Baptism of fire
During this tour shows Morrissey out a few new songs to hear, probably on his new album, go ahead. People Are The Same Everywhere ("Maybe it's true, maybe not") and Action Is My Middle Name experienced their baptism of fire in June at a concert in Scotland.
Another new song on the setlist in Eindhoven, Scandinavia, whose sharp lyrics involuntarily recall the massacre of Anders Breivik Norway. Incidentally, the Norwegian city of Trondheim mentioned in the first line.
Royal house
Of course, a political statement should not be missing this concert of Morrissey. "I love with all my heart I hate England and the British royal family with all my heart," Morrissey said after Irish Blood, English Heart. "And if someone does not approve, so what?"
A song that still evokes controversy, the title track of the second Smiths album Meat Is Murder. The message is still direct and confrontational, but extremely polite. Not the best song from his repertoire, very impressive in this performance. With a loud bang as the unprecedented decision.
