Thursday August 2nd 2018 - Day 2514 - Freedom of speech
In my previous blog entry of last Saturday I wrote that Our Mozzer hadn't been heard of since 6pm on Thursday, when he announced that due to "logistical issues" the promised new Parody piece had been held up. I had wondered at the time if perhaps the "logistical issues" were a lack of broadband in Altrincham, but as Morrissey was photographed on Saturday night in LA with Debbie Harry, it would appear that those "logistical issues" were in fact a flight halfway across the world!
One would have thought that a twelve hour flight would give a seminal artist plenty of time to cobble together a few lines of comedy material for a waiting audience of twenty odd (Ed - very odd!) people, but so far the new parody still hasn't hit the news stands.....or at the very least, the True Morrissey blogsite, although there have been little tasters.
On Saturday afternoon at 2pm (6am LA time) I received a Twitter Direct Message from Morrissey (as @Alfsbutton) which read, "Fear not", followed by this snippet of parody:
Morrissey: Today is a rather blue day for me.
Boz: BLUE DREAMERS EYES Sire! Your new song. Sorry, lost old song.
Morrissey: No flies on you Boz, metaphorically speaking of course. Literally speaking I've noticed at least five flies and two blue bottles circling around you. Are you perhaps wearing eau de Gervais?
The next little taster came about on Tuesday at 5.50am LA time - old Mozzer's body clock has obviously been struggling to adjust - when a tweet was posted by Alf which read, "The parody is nearly complete. It contains a new non-permanent character called Barking Billy."
BARKING BILLY?
Manc Lad (@mancladmozfan) replied to the tweet, "Not before time, I have no sole after stomping so hear", to which M replied, "You have a body with no soul also."
More than 48 hours after that tweet about the parody nearly being complete, we still haven't seen it!
The only other word from camp Moz came yesterday, when after it was announced that Tommy Robinson had been freed from prison on bail. Morrissey took to his Morrissey Central website and posted a video by Styxhexenhammer666:
The video by Styx makes a very interesting point at the 4 minute mark where he talks about the Tommy Robinson debacle not actually being about Tommy Robinson, but about Freedom of speech, which is exactly the point Morrissey was trying to make when he mentioned it in the first place, but of course those with an agenda never wanted to see that.
Coincidentally, I posted a link to a Styxhexenhammer666 video on Twitter back on June 9th. Is this where Morrissey first heard of the guy? Who knows.
And now we await the parody....
