IMO, Morrissey is a depressed, mysterious old man who loves Morrissey. He rarely does interviews and seems like he hates the world. I saw him in 2009 (Tour of the Tormentors) in Houston and to my surprise he delivered that night and played for close to 2 hours. SetList below... Not uncommon for Morrissey to show up 30 minutes late, or even walk off the stage if something (stage invader, band member, security) pisses him off. It's Morrissey's way or no way.
