Morrissey ProfileThe Thebarton theatre hosted an interesting and enjoyable evening. As the venue filled with people of all different ages, people came together to celebrate and support English singer-songwriter, Morrissey.
Gracing the stage with youthful energy and a powerful voice, he played songs from his long back catalogue, to which the crowd sang along. The venue was seemingly perfect for the evening, with the opportunity for people to be seated if they wanted to or to stand and dance.
He began his set promptly at 9.15pm with his hit song, Suedehead. Not only did he dominate the stage with his voice but paired a backdrop of visuals to go with every song, intriguing the audience further. Strobes and colourful lighting was also used to create a fun and energetic vibe that was mimicked by the audience. Among his popular songs he played, Kiss Me A Lot, The Bullfighter Dies and The Smiths song, Meat Is Murder, intertwining his past career and present career in an interesting and positive touch to the set.
Morrissey took the time to thank the crowd several times and play on the fact that there were younger generations in the crowd, at one point recounting the last time he was in Adelaide, "If you were there, you were probably too young to remember or too old to forget." He also took the time to introduce the band members and thank them accordingly.
Finishing around 11pm he bounded back onto the stage for an encore playing his hit song, What She Said, from when he was in The Smiths - making the crowd howl in excitement. Morrissey delivered a fun and interesting performance taking the time to interact with the crowd and ultimately giving the fans what they came for.
