The Smiths & Morrissey thread

Cancelled tomorrow and Saturday's gigs in Anaheim, LA due to (once again) "unforseen circumstances."

I think he's finished as a touring artist. Promoters surely won't touch him and the fans are just sick to death of this constant shit.

You have to question why he is fucking about in Paris and Zurich when he is about to tour in the US and South America. His band must be sick of him doing this. As for the fans. It’s just too risky travelling any distance to go and see him.
 
I watched the Morrissey piss-take episode of The Simpsons last night, I’m surprised I wasn’t aware of it. No wonder he was offended, it was terrible. Another reason to dislike Benedict Cumberbatch (who did the voice of Quilloughby, lead singer of The Snuffs).

And I am far from being a Morrissey or Smiths fan.

Heard about it at the time it came out but never watched it, I've never watched any episode of the Simpsons.

As a bit of a Simpsons fan, although it’s way past its best now and I just watch occasional recent episodes, it called him an out and out racist and shamed him for putting on weight. I was appalled by it. Normally when ‘roasting’ a celebrity they finish with them on a positive note but this was an out and out assassination.

A very poor episode of a series that should’ve finished years back.

It really was bizarre. The pretext actually was that very few US viewers had heard of these UK bands (they said it was a hybrid of Morrissey and Robert Smith but I didn’t see any Cure influence in the character) as it was Lisa trying to challenge “Slapify” (Spotify) to find a genre that she could enjoy and this was the very final suggestion.

The other thing, do Americans not know that “wanker” isn’t really suitable for a kid’s show?
