—Morrissey (1984)
Well, Morrissey! You truly are the wit of a generation, and judging by the state of your hair over the years, you’ve certainly managed to live a fabulous life thus far. Here’s to 50 more years of fantastic haircuts!
Since I’m sure you read my blog (right?), allow me to be one of many to wish you a very (un)HAPPY birthday! Maybe later we can go out for drinks and talk about old times. What do you say? Oh, and wear that suit and tie. You’ll match my rug and chair perfectly.
In the mean time, let us reminisce about the old days by watching a great stage rush moment from Dallas in 1991, back when you were younger than I am now and the security guards weren’t complete thugs. VIVA MORRISSEY!

(But it is also happening to a FEW of us this year…;)
Just came across this:

Morrissey, DiP and the Mini Cooper!!!
Better with age, just like wine.
DiP, you’ve definitely managed to keep the hair in check, that’s for sure!
hair in check. Definitely. ! 🙂
morrissey was asked recently in an irish magazine “does it get easier as time goes on?” he answered ,
” I think you get easier on yourself.Which helps. You sweep out the inner litter. Which helps. But your fat. Which hinders .”
i love him
Ah lovely. That 1991 tour was the 1st time I saw him play. The Smiths clip was excellent but what on earth was up with those puppets?
And Morrissey, should you be on the West Coast I’m free for drinks. Call me.
Robert Smith turned 50 this year as well-April 21. I seriously doubt Robert and Morrissey had drinks together this year to celebrate the half century mark.
I saw Morrissey in 1991 (on Long Island) and the concert ended exactly like that.
I’ll be at Manchester Apollo tonight to say “Happy Fiftieth Birthday plus one day” x
Did you realize that the photo of Morrissey in the striped suit jacket and yellow tie is like the human version of your rug and chair photo/post?
This is my first time commenting. Love your blog (and your bangs as a fellow bangs girl).
I can’t believe Morrissey and Robert Smith are 50. How I loved them in high school (and still do). I’ll be sanding, staining, and polyurethaning woodwork in kitchen this week among other tasks. So, you’re not alone.

anna, i love morrissey as well, unfortunately i have been angry with him since the early 90’s as every morrissey concert i have gone to has ended abruptly with him leaving way before the middle of the show. i forgive him anyway and continue to listen to the smiths on my original promo only vinyls. love your blog as always. happy work weekend.
Just found these on Etsy…

Aren’t there laws about profiting from a person’s likeness without their permission? (Yes, there are.) Why is Etsy OK with things like this being sold on their site?
Wow, that shop seems to consist of nothing but copyright infringements.
I LOVE THIS ANNA.
YAY!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh boy…I feel old. Happy B-day Morrissey!!!
Nice
🙂
your site are amazing
and mozz is the best!
