Lloyd Cole finished his soundcheck and was walking through the Cathedral Quarter. Who should he bump into on the street but Morrissey, in town for a couple of concerts and staying in The Merchant. According to eyewitness accounts they literally hailed one another in the street - not having met in two decades - and had a casual natter, Belfast style.

  • But wasn't Morrissey supposed to be in his sick bed near the RAH on Monday???

  • One of the rumours back in the day was that Moz had a huge crush on Mr. Cole.

  • Cole says that talking about his mother's gift to Morrissey was "the only thing that could have made the encounter agreeable" - so he really doesn't like the Moz?! Full comment from LC here:

    Indeed I did spot him on the other side of the street with a blonde woman. I had no time to think so I yelled 'Morrissey!'. We had a very brief chat. Our first since 1987. He managed to remember the gift from my mother - a briefcase which he still has, which was possibly the only conversation piece that could have made the encounter agreeable. That was that - I commented on how well he was looking. He was. I'm sure he tried not to notice that I was carrying my own guitar

    I don't think Lloyd holds any grudges against Morrissey. Having seen Lloyd in concert many times (Sydney, Edinburgh, Sweden, Dublin, Galway) he has often mentioned Morrissey in his between-song banter, and always talks about Moz with respect. I think he likes the fact that he's not the only one from the early 80's who is still able to take to the stage with pride.
