[Benfleet A1]

Really, the older he gets the bigger tosspot he becomes

Once a tosser, pretty much always a tosser.

Fair play to him for sticking to his guns.

He is trying to force others to his will which in my book makes him arrogant ****.

 

[Jedi Shrimper]

It's his show he can do what he wants.

I agree with your first sentence but not your justification. It was his gig and the venue would have known about his requirements at the time of booking him. No one was made to buy tickets, either. They could go to McDonalds before they get there. Good for him.

Has anyone ever seen him live?
He always seems to be ill or cancel gigs!
We're the seaside town that they forgot to bomb apparently!
Thanks Mozza! You tit

Do you know how stupid that sounds? Because he is a vegetarian everybody else has to bow to his wishes? He is one person, not a God.

Do you know how silly that sounds? Are you suggesting that booking a gig means that everyone has to change their diet? In fact, I insist that you all eat jelly beans while I'm on here or I'll log off.

Three times and the quality of the gigs has got worse each time. The third one, he was on stage for barely fifty minutes.

Still a big fan of his music though, even if he is a tit.

Saw the Smiths several times and they were fantastic. I didn't enjoy the Mung beans that I was forced to consume before going in, though.

Banning meat would suggest that he is dictating what diet people can have in his presence.

No as some one else has said you could go to a maccy d,s before and eat one during his meat free show but why you would i do not know,a fan is a fan.
Back in the day Echo and the bunny men did a gig called crystal day and to get in you had to eat at their mates cafe and get you ticket stamped,i did it because i was a fan,arogant on their behalf,well yea but i was a fan.

I was invited to a friends wedding who was vegetarian. They would cater for meat eaters so I didn't go

For two hours. If they can't go without a burger for that long their predilection for Morrissey's later material is the least of their worries. Would you insist on bringing spare ribs to a vegetarian's dinner party? Would you complain about not being able to eat a kebab at a classical concert? No one needs to eat while listening to William It Was Really Nothing. They could end up dropping their gladioli.

I have with The Smiths.They were great.

Couldn't make his pre-Xmas gig here, as I'd already made other plans for that weekend but otherwise I'd have been happy to go.He didn't cancel,either,Btw.

Then in my book they were not your friend.

Sounds like a question of principle to me (on both sides perhaps).

To be fair I do like him as an artist! And like some of my mates, wasn't a fan in the 80's!
With age The Smiths got better as did Mozza.
I just wish he could cut out the controversy.
I don't care for his views and I wouldn't force mine on people paying my wages.

I have a mare finding New Balance trainers without suede on - the day he stops wearing leather shoes is the day he wins my respect - pseudo vegan sell out.
