Morrissey

The Hammersmith gyratory will be an even more maudlin place than usual for two nights this autumn, when Moz comes to town to croon Smiths classics and solo material. The Pope of Mope comes trailing a new album (‘World Peace Is None of Your Business’) and the same old dark cloud. We’ve got our fingers crossed that he’ll be on form for these London dates, where his workmanlike backing band will be helping him run through new songs alongside select cuts from a hefty and often captivating back catalogue (albeit with a noticeable dropping off of notes in his upper register).
