I've got a great seat ticket...I'll sell for $36 -- same as a lawn ticket with charges.  Center Orchestra, Row S -- 18 rows back.  I can meet you there.
 
 I can get you two together also -- another friend has a ticket, so he can sit with us and you can have both his tickets.  Front row of the rear orchestra center section (AA), seat 112

I hope this was a wise decision and that we are going to get a full show rather some some severely truncated set. If not, myself and a lot of other folks are going to be truly disappointed.  Good night & thank you . . .

i know morrissey shows have a reputation of being out of control and all but people hardly dance at shows in d.c. and other than the shows i've been to where it was mostly high school kids, i don't think i've ever seen someone force their way on stage. please report all of the action.
 i'm totally going to be in the front at tomorrow's show. i'm hoping it'll be nuts.

Sorry Eddie or thatguy or shadrach - posted by Morrissey tickets in the ticket exchange.  Sometimes you just completely forget it's not an IMP show!!!  (And I always think "merriweather" even though I'm going to Wolftrap...).

very solid show ... nothing transcendent, but i didn't really have high expectations ... highlight of the night for me was "girlfriend in a coma", oddly enough

oh, and it was aging-gen-x'er / mid-to-late 30s heaven ... they should have just played "northern exposure" on the screen between acts
 
 and the opener was atrocious, like tori amos bad

The highlight for me was "Please Let me Get WHO I Want", and also my friend getting totally bodyslammed when he got on stage during "How Soon Is Now". He was taken down, and hard.

What a great show.  I'm soooo excited for tomorrow though.  Seeing him at Rams Head is going to be amazing.

How Soon is Now was just unbelievable! Best Moz show I've seen. He assembled the best band to back him up this time around!

True that, his band sounded incredible, tight,  solid and they totally rocked. He was as always very funny and delicate, the crowd was very engaged, five stars
 
 I agree about let me get what I want as the highlight of the show, but I loved the last of the famous international playboys also...

I referred to her as "Kate Bush, practicing"
 
 I loved the show, though is wasn't transcendent or perfect.  Just a lot of fun, and very charismatic.  Great, tight band that completely brought "How Soon is Now."
 
 And I was in a full timewarp because some guy near me was wearing either Polo or Drakar....
