We don't care about the "latino fans", we really don't. It was a nice novelty, but it's just a fad like everything else in L.A. Morrissey came in fashion at some point, and the band wagon latino fans followed.
Death to Jose Maldonaldo!
Do you know that there are latino fans who know more and care more about the tasteless cover band Sweet and Tender Hooligans than Morrissey himself!
We don't care about your stupid documentary, the latino fan base is OVER-RATED. They're just a bunch of trouble-making hoodrats and greaser troublemakers. Please stop paying your useless attention to them. It's just too much.
$5 dollars is too much. The people who go to this should be ashamed of themselves, you're so vain.

I prefer a fan base that in their spare time will listen to David Bowie rather than one that'll go with Shakira.
That sounded awful of me didn't it? Sorry

Anyway, I'm bored with this. I like latino fans, I really do. But, please quit acting like YOU are Morrissey's "darlings". You're not. And you never will be. Morrissey doesn't work that way.
I should just shut up, I don't know why I try.

I mean face it, Moz loves LA. I would argue that Morrissey has a bigger following in this part of the world than anywhere else, even his native country of England. First of all, he plays tons more shows in this area than any where else on Earth. I'm speaking of SoCal, Vegas and even Tijuana, Mexico. If you don't think the latino fans have something to do with that, you're not paying attention. Of the shows I've been to in those areas, there are a lot of latinos in the audience. My point is, if you enjoy all the appearances and tour dates Morrissey does in this area, the latino fan base is a HUGE reason why. He wrote a song called 'Mexico'. He wrote another one about a latino gang member for pete's sake! Moz knows his bread is buttered in LA and I am grateful to benefit from it. It is for that reason some people would have an interest in learning about the lives of the people whose existence draws them to Morrissey/Smiths music. Personally, I find subcultures fascinating and although I am not latino, would love to check out this doc but won't be able to make the screening because I live in San Diego.
Also, if you don't like SATH, that sucks for you because they are quite talented musicians and put on a great show. I don't know Jose but I met him once and found him thoughtful and sincere.
Finally, for anyone who is fearful about the USA becoming more brown than white(I am half-caucasian, half Native-American), those immigrants look to you the same way the Native people here saw the european settlers back in the 1500s, as uninvited guests with strange ways who came to take advantage of the land and the people.
