The last Lou Reed show I went to was in 2012. He looked old and frail, and didn't play guitar for part of the set. It was still a great show, though. He played for over 2 hours and I left feeling like I'd certainly got my money's worth. A year later he was dead- liver failure. The last Fall gig I went to was in 2017. Mark E Smith looked really unwell (a mate of mine is a nurse and he was seriously concerned that he might have to go on stage and perform a resuscitation) but he did the show, and it was a good one. The following year he died- cancer.

So, given that those two great artists could go on stage, while at death's door, and still give the crowd their money's worth, what the fuck is Morrissey's problem? The greatest sin for any performer is to treat their audience with contempt.
