Quart (Score:2, Informative)
One newspaper has already given a review of the show, with the headline "King Morrissey" (http://www.vg.no/pub/vgart.hbs?artid=233718).
3000 people attended the gig. Appearently, he started out singing a few lines of the A-ha hit "The Sun Always Shines On TV". He also thanked the audience for making YATQ number five in the Norwegian Album Chart. I guess the setlist is the same as previous festival concerts, "Shakespeare's Sister", "How Can Anybody Possibly Know How I feel" and "Let Me Kiss You" are mentioned in the review.

Seriously, this is one of the best music festivals in the world, everytime I check the list of the line-up of bands it's always stacked with heaps of talent.
Pity it's across the other side of the world :(
Only festival in the world where I'd probably get the chance to see Moz, Live and Rammstein all on the one weekend :P

"and I´m Morten!" (Score:1, Interesting)
The intro was hilarious; Morrissey entering alone singing: Touch me, how can it be, believe me, the sun NEVER shines on TV!
Two Moz concerts for me in two days. Satisfied, but kind of want to see him in England sometime also, no Morrisseeeeyy football chanting and not much jumping in front of the stage at these two gigs.

Alain..... (Score:1)
I haven't seen any comments about him lately, but maybe I missed them.

alain: sick or sacked (Score:1)
doesn't one think if alain was ill (like he was when his back went out just before coachella and a few american dates had to be cancelled), someone would say something by now?
i'm not trying to troll or start a flame war, but it's going on a month now and there's been no word other than the speculation on this site. plus, there no official thread for the alain situation and the general discussion board is really just a waste of time.

Great gig (Score:1)
The setlist was indeed the same as Roskilde. And it isn't true that Alain hasn't been mentioned - Morrissey dedicated 'No one can hold a candle to you' to him on his birthday at the Roskilde show.
He talked a lot about Norway "Don't ever move!", had a fair amount of interaction with the crowd (though as usual he couldn't really hear what people said), and was enjoying himself immensely, as usual, one is tempted to say.
He asked Julia once more if she was saddle-sore, and was just unable to reach the letter she held out for him (a painstaking 10 seconds of silent suspense for everyone (would he fall off the stage in his efforts?), until a security guard was kind enough to deliver it). Generally, only people with long arms were able to touch hands with him during this show - and there were no stage-invaders, though I heard a lot of people plotting before the show, and the relatively few guards would have made the chances good.

Apparently, during a concert by The Cumshots (sic!), a couple climbed up and had sex on the stage for a couple of minutes...

Stretford bigmouth (Score:1, Insightful)
never been here before, but I saw the message below and have to confess to being the vocal Englishman at quart. It was the first time I'd seen Moz live although I loved the Smiths and saw them many times back in the 80's (getting on a bit now!). I saw them first when I was 15 at the hacienda in manchester when This Charming Man was in the charts and he was still swinging the gladioli, talk about going to seminal gigs! you can keep the sex pistols in '76.
Anyway just to clear my name, I said to Morrissey that the stretford boys were here, he replied 'who's from Stretford, I don't believe you, where do you live', so I told 'Derbyshire lane', which is a couple of streets away from where he used to live, he then replied 'Oh, the pressure' with usual mock-horror, good man. So I am a local Stretford boy so the smiths were massive for us in the 80's.
A little piece of trivia if you want it, my cousin is called Anne-Marie McVeigh and she used to live on the same street as us, she went to North Trafford college with Morrissey and remembers him fondly as very shy and sweet with an obvious crush on her. When I'd been into the Smiths for about a year I told her about this great local genius star called morrissey(she was into Chic, Michael Jackson etc, so a million miles from this kind of music) she said 'what's his first name 'Steven' I said, she said 'oh my god he was in my college class'. She told me he once confided to her 'Anne, I want to be a rock star but I can't even play the fucking guitar!'
She jokes now that she'd be loaded if she'd shacked up with him, but she was convinced he was.....well I think you probably know. It's all true folks, have a good day.
