A review of the show states this:

'There had been a rainstorm earlier in the day so after set opener "Don't Make Fun Of Daddy's Voice" Morrissey said "I know you're wet and I know you're cold so I'll sing as fast as I can..." After "How Can Anybody Possibly Know How I Feel?" he said "Thank you everybody... or thank you some of you... thank you most of you..." Following "Let Me Kiss You" he teased the audience with "I suppose that most of you feel pretty disgusting, do you? Yeah well, believe me I feel that way every day... and I'm usually nowhere near mud... except psychologically of course..."

At some point into the show Morrissey asked if people could wait until the end of his set before overdosing.'

Hope that clears it up for anyone who was there? :P

Arena looked full so not sure of earlier post...odd

It definitely wasn't. Seating wise there were four whole blocks of seats (2 on each side) towards the stage they normally sell, which were totally empty. Then the upper tiers for the blocks they did sell were curtained off.

I was standing so I dunno what that bit looked like, but although it was pretty packed down the front it got spacious very quickly.

Ah, ok. Saw those blocks empty but was the same for Neil Young. Thought they'd stopped using them as matter of course due to limited view but not been there often enough

All that was full both nights I went to Kasabian & I'm pretty sure it was the same for Frank Turner :)

To be fair it might have been planned & they deliberately didn't sell those tickets, but yeah it was a smaller attendance than standard (to be expected tbh)

I would kill for him to bring back the Subway Train intro for Everyday :girlcray:

Regarding World Peace, as a first time attendee I'd love to see him play a set of his 10 biggest solos hits and some Smiths numbers, but I appreciate I am in a minority here and he has been touring for years and so many of the fans that want to see these songs have seen them.

A World Peace set wont stop me going thought, as I need to see as many of the great British bands/singers as I can, whilst they're all still touring, it's like a race against time. Moz doing a mainly World Peace set is still better than 99% of the top selling singers out there in my eyes, even if it's not what I would choose.

Boo. Big boo. I saw him in Bournemouth last month and thought he was awesome, it's the third time I'd seen him and def the best. Would love another glasto appearance. Boo again.

As a first time Moz concert goer I loved his Leeds show. Which are the other tours you've been to see? Just curious as I have no other experiences to compare it to anf heard tge tour was his best for a while from a few people :)

Didn't expect to see him playing Glasto, but it's a big shame nonetheless

As someone who's seen Moz about 8 times now and saw the last Glasto appearance, I'm not that fussed that he's not going to be playing this year. He only really tends to respond to 'his' crowd and was his usual disparaging self at the crowd when they weren't jumping up and down to one of his latest album tracks, something along the lines of 'It's OK, we won't be long... we know you're only waiting for U2'. I was at the Leeds gig, BTW, front and centre and had a fine old time :)

I saw him in Salisbury in 2009, and at glasto in 2011, so not much to compare but this year was definitely the best I reckon.

It's so good to see him chatty and up for it!
