Steven Patrick Morrissey, who performs under just his last name, turned 64 this year and he is celebrating 40 years of music with this tour!
The audience was made up of fans young and old who were treated to a blur of music and images; ostensibly a collage of many of the cultural influences that helped shape Morrissey as a songwriter and performer.
Then, just after 9 p.m. The Moz hit the stage, kicking the night off with “Suedehead”; Morrissey’s first solo record released in 1988 after the Smiths broke up!
