Morrissey is awesome. The Smiths, of course, were a brilliant band, but I think he's had a tremendous solo career.
This is something I thought was a lot of fun to read, and other Morrissey fans should enjoy:
Quote:
In 1981 a guy named Robert Mackie was pen-pals with a guy named Steven Patrick Morrissey. Sometime in the late '80s Mr. Mackie photocopied the letters into a fanzine called "Words by Morrissey", which he then made available to anyone for the cost of postage.
Sometime in the late '90s I typed up all of these letters and posted 'em on my website, but a few years later I accidentally deleted the file from my web server. So, i'm now re-posting the letters; for the first time ever on the blog.
All spelling and punctuation marks are Morrissey's.

Letters From Morrissey
Pretty interesting and amusing reading. He's an odd mix of insecurity, mopiness and extroversion. I guess that wasn't too hard to tell from his music.
