Morrissey Hot Press magazine interview out now

An anonymous person writes:

Issue is out just picked it up in Dublin - very good insightful interview; usual topics covered also says Jesse Tobias is one of the modern world's greatest guitarists...no confirmation on O2 date yet. Recent health issue was "acute fever" and needed a heroin based medication to stabilise him!

INSIDE THE NEW HOT PRESS: MORRISSEY - Hot Press. Link posted by Uncleskinny
A world exclusive with the one and only Morrissey, plus Ryan Adams, Rankin, Eli Roth, John Slattery and more...

Excerpt:

Our ridiculously star-studded run of summer issues continues this fortnight. Gracing our cover this issue – and looking extremely cool we must say – is the icon that is Morrissey.
Always a bit wary of the press, the Mancunian star talks exclusively to Hot Press as his new album World Peace Is None Of Your Business kicks Mozzamania into gear.

On the agenda? Global politics, his new album, the Royal Family, Tony Blair, Brendan Behan, Bashar al-Assad and much more, while he opens up about his recent health issues for the first time.

I think opiates can cause constipation.
Once his course is finished Moz could be in danger of crapping all over the pla-hay-ha-hace. :-(

The amount of spazzing out that I'm doing as I try to get ahold of this article is staggering.

I think I need to join MA (Morrissey Anonymous).

"Jesse Tobias is one of the modern world's greatest guitarists"

Clearly needs to dial back the intake of opiate-based pain relievers.

Where are you getting this opiates story from? Have I missed a scan or something? Cheers. Maybe you've found hard copies of it.

 

[Uncleskinny]

I mentioned elsewhere that I have 3 copies on the way. Up for grabs, first come, first served. In fact one has already been claimed. Send DM.

Couldn't Brummie just put down his coffee and snap some cellphone pics for us pathetics?

No you haven't missed the scan, but obviously people have read it.

There's a snippet of it that someone has posted here.

You can order a copy, apparently, from Hot Press.

"Having met Pamela Anderson and Patrick Dempsey, well, they're both quite beautiful, and if at least one of them doesn't turn you on then you're probably dead."

Well, then, I suppose I'm dead! In a pinch I guess I'd go with Pam, but to me Patrick Dempsey is forever delivering pizza with extra anchovies.

Bahahahahahahaha! I've seen Pam's Playboy spread (and home vids). Not impressed. Patrick Dempsey looks like a blown out Kit Harington. I think I'd go there...IF he didn't smell like extra anchovies.

Saw this snip on FB...

I think, err, he may get a bit of flak. United King-Dumb?

[Eurydice]

"I don't transmit sexuality of any kind..."

Ummm...sarcasm? Classic Moz? I'm guessing.

If not, those are some serious meds the dude has been on because they've fried his brain.

 

[Uncleskinny]

If it's not done before, I'll scan ASAP and post. Maybe tomorrow, maybe Saturday.

Thanks for the much-needed context on the opiates, Hotlips!

This kinda bums me out to read about all the health problems. I'm just glad I never trivialized it, personally.

P.

Not surprising. He's an enemy of the State. It's hard to name an opponent of the UK he does not support.

He's no different to that other plastic Paddy, Lord Haw Haw.
