Iconic and at times controversial, Morrissey stands tall as a luminary in the tapestry of British pop culture. With a pen that wields both sentiment and wit, he has crafted lyrics that have etched themselves into the collective consciousness. Now, in a crescendo of anticipation, Moz has unveiled an Australian odyssey for the '40 Years of Morrissey' tour.

Embarking on this musical sojourn, the tour will unfurl its opening act at the Perth Concert Hall on December 1, a prelude to the enchantment that follows. The Palais Theatre in Melbourne will then cradle his artistry for two ethereal nights, as the Fortitude Music Hall in Brisbane echoes with his resonant melodies. The Australian symphony crescendos with a flourish as the Sydney State Theatre hosts him for two final, soul-stirring performances on December 10 and 11.

As twilight falls on each evening of this grand tour, it will weave a sonic tapestry adorned with the pearls of his discography. From the evocative echoes of The Smiths' debut days to the resonating chords of his contemporary solo journey, each concert promises to be a kaleidoscope of songs that have tugged at heartstrings and marked life's pivotal moments.

By no means am I intending to put the seasoned vocalist on a pedestal of godlike caliber… it's just that, well, pretty much everything that can be said about the man has already been said, or in this case, written. Rather than waste time with some whimsical anecdote, I'll instead jump right into his latest … Read more

Ringleader of the Tormentors
Sanctuary (2006)

Age gives you a great sense of proportion. You can be very hard on yourself when you're younger but now I just think...well everybody's absolutely mad and I'm doing quite well. Age shouldn't affect you. It's just like the size of your shoes - they don't determine how you live your life! You're either marvelous or you're boring, regardless of … Read more
