Mozzer's fans only more rabid 23 years later
While I know and appreciate that Morrissey has made some great solo records, I remain much more a fan of The Smiths than of the Mozzer himself. That said, I'm still going to see old Stevie tonight when he returns to The Rave. In the 23 years since his "Beatlemania"-style Milwaukee debut, it's likely his fans have become more and more devoted.
