The Littlest Morrissey Fans and More

Well, tomorrow is the big night, when Morrissey himself will be causing swoons left and right all over Jones Hall and, no doubt, the greater Theater District area. (See if any tickets are left here.) Rocks Off was a little curious how one shy, sensitive, verbally gifted bloke from Manchester could inspire such unyielding devotion until he discovered these videos on YouTube.

Turns out Morrissey fans are pretty much bred that way from the cradle. Yikes. Enjoy those and some assorted other Mozzery, including the classic "Record Rack Report" featuring bewildered local TV news folks reporting on his appearance at the late, lamented Shepherd music store in 1992.
