We followed him quite by accident down the road in his black merc after it was all over...it was well giddy.
Pity he was'nt going all the way back to my home - Leeds. They headed off Hornsea, Hull way !!
Great night and good time was had by all.
Wonderous (Score:0, Flamebait)
It was wonderous to see the Old queen almost in not in self denial after 25 years.

Under my Iron bridge you stood, oh yes you did.
Good golly miss molly.

good gig.. but not as good as the Blackpool one (Score:1, Informative)
bit outta tune in places
no november spawned a monster...
but did do Jesus..
No faded outro to there is a light.. it just Stopped!
A few people got on stage, but all in all it was maybe a bit muted compared to blackpool..... only 1 shirt thrown into the crowd... etc etc
Very very cool....but not as good as he can be
Happy Man (Score:2, Informative)
The pick of the tour for me so far (read on for the reason why). The usual tweaks to the set list (from Shitpool) with Jack the Ripper, November and Little Thing replaced by Crashing, Shoplifters and I Know it Going to Happen (which was a pleasant surprise, he introduced as a song from Your Arsenal then left the audience hanging to see what it was for what seemed ages).
There has been a comment or two about being out of tune. However, the only ropey song for me was Daddy’s which was a bit distorted but was exceptionally powerful.
A couple of other bits of interaction I remember (not very good at this I am afraid as I get a bit caught up in it):
‘I cant remember anyone famous from Bridlington, does anyone know anybody’? Talked to crowd and said to someone ‘That might be good enough for your Mam but is not good enough Universally’. After a second discussion with the crowd and a quip about crushing rugby players not counting he seemed to have found someone, but didn’t let on who it was. If anyone does, I am mildly intrigued? This was the preamble to Crashing Bores.
He did the usual pretend cry at the ‘Morrissey’ chant.
‘High Meatfreecotter, nice to see you on the stage’. Well he actually did not say that, but he did shake my hand, which was nice! The easiest Security too get past of the Tour.
PS- Hello to the canny lass I met at the bar of the Southcliffe (great bar with more staff on than they had at Cacpool). Hope you enjoyed the gig!
PPS- DIDN’T DARE MENTION THE WAR!

Julia (Score:0, Flamebait)
Tell me - Morrissey doesn't invite the Queen. Maybe he should play The Queen is Dead and Julia might flee.................
A few people got on stage and his personal guard got really ugly and want to strangle them.
Maxine Carr wasn't there except she was in Blackpool.

We met Gary Day before the gig - he is a star as is Deano (who gatecrashed me and my partner having our picture taken with Gary outside the venue so that "he could be on it too!") I'm still swooning! They were just so nice!

The band all wore identical green T-Shirts - did anyone see what was on them?

Arrived about One 0'clock after a two hour drive across a fog-filled coastal road, checked into a quaint B&B, whipped on our Moz T-Shirts and proceeded to down several pints of the local brew.
Got into the gig at seven, having spent an hour with Moz fans from far and wide in the pub across the road from the Spa.
It was a great venue, with a cracking atmosphere.
We were dead centre of the stage, about five rows from the front, absolutely gasping for air in the crush.
When Moz lobbed his pink shirt straight in front of me I grabbed hold of it, along with about ten others. I held on for what seemed like forever before I managed to tear some of it off. I stuck it in my pocket, only realising later that it is actually the side of his shirt, about two foot long. Ive just took it out of my sports bag and it is still soaked in sweat!
Anyway, as far as i'm concerned these type of gigs are what live music is all about.
Everyone I spoke to had the time of their lives.
Moz looked great...a lot fitter than he did at the M.E.N.
VIVA MOZ!

"The song with no ending" (Score:0)
Do they really not know how to finsh this song? It seemed to me that Moz lost his way after being interrupted by a stage invader, but it led to a funny moment when Moz said of the band: "they refuse to stop" and asked of the audience: "somebody do something" :).
...on listening to the show again, the ending doesn't go on for as long as I thought.

Animals, - thats what some of the fans are !!!! (Score:1)
By the time every1 else had queued up, there was abou 30 people infront of me, Even though i should have been about 10th in the queue. The tickets got took and every1 ran down the stairs. I didnt even get on the front row. Once moz startin singin, ALL the f*cking animals started pushing, spoiling it for every1. I thought i was gonna pass out (they were crunching into the middle, where i was). Eventually, the security saw me and acknowledged that i was in despair. He leaned over and pulled me out of the crowd. What annoyed me most, I tried to put my hand on the bar (just so I could regain consciousness) and the american girl in front of me -Elbowed me in the hand (and kind of sed 'F*uck Off).
It just dissapointed me so much, to think of all the animals at that concert. Luckily i was goin to the newcastle city hall to see him the next day - and it was much better - coz i was seated !!!!
I noticed the american girl at the same concert, but i didnt acknowledge her - her ignorance was unbelievable, not to mention when in the bridlington concert -i had ran down the stairs to get front row, the girl from the U.S was spreading her arms out (reserving a spot for her friend)....For f*ucks sake - its first come first serve. And out f niceness, i waited for her friend to arrive 10 mins after so she could have front row.
I watched the concert from the back of the room, and enjoyed it much better (i could move)
