Don´t have time for the translation right now, but there are some cues about Mozz' activities in Santiago, a day before his show here with PJ Harvey and the Mars Volta. He´s been sleeping, working out and buying, apparently: Morrissey pasea por Santiago antes de recital - La Tercera SUE II: comenzó la lluvia de estrellas - El Mercurio Morrissey no quiso cueros ni fanáticos - Las Ultimas Noticias

Morrissey strolls by Santiago before recital (Score:0)
All indicated that the second visit of Morrissey to Chile would not have objections. The British musician (and one of the central dishes of the first night of the festival Santiago Urban Electronic, SUE, that is initiated today) arrived yesterday country near the 6 of the early morning, in a good mood and with desires to stroll. Therefore every morning in his extensive room of the Hyatt Hotel, ate without being bothered, descended to the gymnasium and around three in the afternoon had planned a traveled through by Santiago.
But the unexpected visit of a fan at flat 19, where the former leader of The Smiths lodges, caused a change of plans. And finally around the six of the afternoon Morrissey left subterranean way and in a car, taking a walk by the capital, where visited the hill San Christopher and did purchases in the exclusive sector of the street Alonso of Córdova.
The escapade, of two hours, was achieved once the singer passed evil while that him would have caused the intrusion of his admirer, part of a group of fanatics that was during hours expecting it in the lobby of the hotel, and that crossed the solid measures of security (comprising two bodyguards) until arriving at the door of the room of the musician, who explicitly had asked to the Event "to be bothered by nobody".
The fact, nevertheless, did not have greater consequences. Therefore the relaxation of the members of their band, that themselves did not have greater problems with the incident and when the 17 hours were done, met in the lobby of the Hyatt to leave to walk. Some of them declared to be very pleased to be in Chile and they very happy by the deal that had received in the country.
Until yesterday, Morrissey did not do large petitions to the organizacion of the festival SUE, except that him was facilitated an extensive side room in the stadium San Carlos of Apoquindo. Another is that the musician did not have requests to carry out tests of sound neither trials.
For today Morrissey has requested to rest, to do gymnastics and to be prepared for his show in the intimacy of his hotel. The last time that the former leader of The Smiths was presented in the country was the year 2000, in the capital's stadium Víctor Rockrose.

Today in San Carlos of Apoquindo
SUE II: began the rain of stars
As opposed to The Mars Volta, Morrisey and PJ Harvey did not speak with the press.
The second part of the festival SUE had yesterday a diverse aperitif. While in the morning Morrisey eluded the scores of one fans that awaited in the capital airport, the American band The Mars Volta tightened the hand of the devout that cheered them in the hotel Sheraton and visited the Rock radio & Pop. Only its famous companion, the guitarist of Network Hot Chili Peppers, John Frusciante, remained in its room.
The British singer PJ Harvey arrived yesterday to the 22:00 hours and did not want to speak. Neither with the press or with the scarce fans that expected her in Pudahuel.
In the appointment of this night in the stadium San Carlos of Apoquindo, the number of opening is The Mars Volta. In order to Faith does Not Die and Mr. Bungle, the criticism anointed them as the candidates for the vacancy. But nothing less can import him al quartet formed in Texas, by the puerto rican one Omar Rodriguez López and the Mexican one Cedric Bixler Zavala. "We are friends of Mike Patton, but Faith does Not Die does not interest us", clarifies Rodriguez.
And it go if they consider other friends which to be worried: they founded in 2003 their own seal, Gold Standard Laboratories, supported by Frusciante and another credit of the Chili Peppers, the downward one Flea. There they published their only album, "Of-Loused in the Comatorium" (2003).
Rodriguez predicts: "We will Be the great surprise of SUE. Our mixture of rock with the latin american rhythms of Santana and Ismael Miranda is unique".
Morrisey, the silent one, arrived at 6:20 hours originating from Los Angeles. He left in a Mercy Benz to the hotel Hyatt - the only artist lodged there - where occupied the totality of the floor 19. He remained sleeping to the afternoon, when he decided to stroll for Alonso of Córdova and to be directed to the Hill San Christopher.
Blondie to the TV
If the agenda of Morrisey was compact, that of Blondie promises more movement: the band of Deborah Harry arrives today and will go this night al programs "a lot I Fight", of Channel 13, where will interpret a theme. Rock radio & Pop is the official radio station of the appointment, and since the 12:00 hours will transmit a series of compact with the development of the event. A special one with the best of SUE II will emit it in the next weeks.
Programming
The stadium is opened to the 17:00 hours. Mars Volta leaves to the 19:15, PJ Harvey to the 20:40 and Morrisey to the 22:10. All finishes to the 1:00.

Morrissey did not want leather or fanatics (fans?)
Thursday November 4, 2004
The extravagances of Morrissey have always fed their legend. As that says that he does not like that they touch it. Or that another that swears that does not speak by telephone. All because this British cuarentón maintains an airtight bubble around him that impedes that its private life be aired.
The certain thing is that many of those manias are not certain. Nevertheless, yesterday Steven Patrick – his true name- arrived at Santiago at 6.15 o'clock hours from Los Angeles (California), to be presented for the second time in our country, and even when there was a handful of fanatics expecting it, he -faithful to its style- did them a veronica and left for the sector VIP without having the most minimum contact with the local copies. It went aboard a Mercy Benz that, by express petition his, should not have seats of leather and whose chauffeur had to be maintained in silence.
Another car escorted him, with producers and its assistants. But he was not directed to the hotel Sheraton, where will lodge the remainder of them you invited al festival SUE II -as Blondie, PJ Harvey and The Mars Volta-, but in the Hyatt, in a suite presidential of 240 square meters. The floor 19 entirely was reserved for him
This night, Morrissey will be the penultimate artist in rising al setting of the stadium San Carlos of Apoquindo, around the 22.15 hours. He will inaugurate the day a set of DJ local, then he will come The Mars Volta, PJ Harvey and he will close Electric Six. But the British one only his hotel minutes before the action will leave, will pass for its side room -in which a vegetarian diet will expect it that includes organic food and natural juices-, will touch and will return to the hotel. Tomorrow morning, will go to Buenos Aires. In silence. Just as arrived.

Morrissey didn't want leather or fans
Thursday, November 4, 2004
Morrissey's extravagances have always fed his legend. Like the one that says he doesn't like being touched. Or the other one that swears he doesn't talk on the phone. All because this fortysomething Brit maintains an airtight bubble around him that prevents his private life from being aired.
The truth is that many of these obsessions are not true. Nevertheless, yesterday Steven Patrick- his real name- arrived in Santiago at 6:15 from Los Angeles (California), to appear for a second time in our country, and even when there were a handful of fans waiting for him, he- true to form- pulled a veronica ["a maneuver in bullfighting in which the matador stands with both feet fixed in position and swings the cape slowly away from the charging bull"] and left through the VIP section without having the slightest contact with the local individuals. He stepped into a Mercedes Benz which, at his express request, should not have leather seats and whose driver had to remain silent.
Another car escorted him, with producers and his assistants. But they didn't direct him to the hotel Sheraton, where the rest of the guests of the festival SUE II- like Blondie, PJ Harvey, and The Mars Volta- were hosted, but rather to the Hyatt, in a presidential suite of 240 square meters. The 19th floor was completely reserved for him.
Tonight, Morrissey will be the second to last artist to take the stage of the San Carlos de Apoquindo stadium, around 22:15. A set of local DJs will start the day, then will come The Mars Volta and PJ Harvey, and Electric Six will close. But the Brit will only leave his hotel minutes before the performance, will go into his dressing room- in which a vegetarian diet including organic foods and natural juices waits for him-, will play, and will return to the hotel. Tomorrow morning, he will go to Buenos Aires. In silence. Just as he arrived.
