What I want to know is, why did he make us listen to them before he ventured on stage? Surely he could have summoned up a "decent" band from the "olden days" to support. (NY Dolls excluded, as they were worse than the rest of them put together)

When I was a lad

I never had to put up with such filthy comments as these.

What never?

No never.

I always mix up my Pirates of Penzance period with The Mikado

Probably have here too.
Oh Lord it takes me back to 5 years old and my uncle playing G and S for hours on end. I knew it word for word at the time. The music was very catchy though.
I'll probably seek them out, for the sake of nostalgia.

Whilst talking to myself in the kitchen, just realised HMS Pinafore manifests itself somewhere too.

Then again, I am going through another "blue" period, even though all vinyls were black at the time...no one knows...

They just couldn't get the ink in those days.

Time for zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

yes i know too.

You're going to use up all the quotation marks! haha What is a "hamburger shack"? That soes sound deadly...

They caught Jack in the Box selling kangaroo burgers once. I don't know if they were better or worse. I would imagine they were "free range" though.

Yeah, Morrissey's always talking out of his rear end. He's just buying into a lot of food hysteria from the usual suspects.

If Morrissey cares so much he should try opening up a restaurant that serves foods that he likes. He can see first hand just how uninvolved the local and federal government really are when they shut him down because the hot water isn't hot enough, not enough soap, or how the tofu he serves doesn't meet federal standards.Doesn't matter if he's serving animal byproduct or not, same standards, same risks of foodborne illnesses.
