Last night's show in Ann Arbor was pretty good. The crowd was mellow but appreciative, which helped.
Morrissey came out in a tuxedo (vented, two button, yech!) and a pre-tied bowtie. He kept it on for six or seven songs, which lent a nice effect to his appearance when he sweated through the formal shirt sans undershirt (glad I wasn't front row). Several shirt changes followed, including one shirt that he tore off and threw to the audience after only half a song. He's in better shape than he was the last time I saw him, I'll give him that.
Played most of his new album (eh), a few good older Morrissey songs (including a B-side), and three Smiths songs (How Soon is Now, Ask Me, and Death of a Disco Dancer).
