Morrissey concert review
ZENITH PARIS - LA VILLETTE in Paris, France
Thu, 12 Nov 2009

Promoting "Years Of Refusal" in a disappointed half full Zénith, the concert will not remain as one of the best I've seen. Morrissey seemed tired, or frustrated by the lack of audience, and people give back the same to him. Both crowd and performers could have been better. As for the setlist, the disappointing choice of "Skull" as the unique encore made me feel that the concert had to be finished quickly. I already have been disappointed by some choices of encore (such as Daddy's voice in Luxemburg 2006, a huge concert), but this finish sadly perfectly reflected the mood of the show.
But amongst all this, there's been as usual great moments such as "Is It Really So Strange?", "Cemetery Gates", the interesting "One Day Goodbye Will Be Farewell". "The Loop" was also a great surprise. Last word : "I'm OK by myself" was perfect before the encore.
