Can You Gig It?: Morrissey @ Camden Roundhouse, London, 25.1.08
To say that Tech Digest‘s Katherine Hannaford is fond of Morrissey is a bit like saying Amy Winehouse has a slight penchant for the crack. The woman is obsessed. She went to see Mozza the other night at the show he cancelled a few songs in. Oh dear, how did she cope?
- How did you rate the venue?
It was held at the Camden Roundhouse, which I love – alcohol isn’t *too* overpriced, the views tend to be good from the main floor, and if the tickets get lost in the mail when being sent to you (as happened with me), they’ll issue you with replacements – much better than crummy Ticketmaster, who don’t do that!
- What were the crowd like?
The crowd was brilliant. Lots of Mozfather lookalikes and rowdy Northerners, although I was quite worried some of the Mancunians would be even more miserable after he stopped playing halfway through the fourth song – he lost his voice. I still say that one of the Morrissey-lookalikes in the crowd could’ve got up on stage and pretended to be him, we would’ve been none the wiser…
- Was the support act any good or did it send you to the bar?
Who turns up to a Mozza gig for the support act!? I was in the pub across the road. Apparently they were called ‘Girl In A Coma’. I was hoping that they’d put an act on after Morrissey, called ‘There Is A Light’!
