"Speedway" (Live at London Palladium) - MORRISSEY

Stagejumpers galore. Still brilliant to hear this!!!

He also says this at the end of the video:
"This afternoon I was walking around backstage of this beautiful theatre and I came across a small baby deer that had been shot in the head -- it was dead and I thought, 'oh, William and Kate must be here'. Then I walked further down the corridor and I saw all these bear traps being wrapped up to be sent to Canada to kill bears and I thought, 'oh, the Queen must be here'. Such a lovely family."

I love Morrissey, but Canada is not a bad country.

Live at London Palladium, London, 08 August 2011.

Sorry, Dont look as though they want to be there!!

[pluckernil]

@MrShreka I think it's because we were so far up. The seats were really tight and the rows were quite steep.

The video is much appreciated. I think if you look at Morrissey's solo career, much more so than the Smiths, fans coming onto the stage have been a huge part of concerts, the interaction between Morrissey and audiences has always set him apart and indeed his own videos have highlighted this, the outsiders outsider. Ive not looked at my own videos in recent times but I am off to check them out.....I originally put them up as they were quite rare. Check Moz first solo gig at Wolverhampton....

[TaHyKu]

that's the way to express their passion and love to him...probably,I think.

Or to be part of the Smiths mode...

@MrShreka That's what I was thinking, they don't look like they want to be there... I think this must be the Upper Circle, I was in the Royal Circle and everyone was so lively and passionate, especially during this song - they were going mad!

[MrShreka]

To be honest these people in the seats here dont look as though they dont want to be there!! wheres the enthusiasm???

[NowhereFast94]

Aah, thanks so much for posting, really glad someone got a decent recording!

Beautiful performance, in spite of the interuptions caused by stage-divers and the subsequent horrific reaction from security, such an emotional song...
