YES it'is true, I was there, in fact we had a call from someone who said that he believed Moz was in a bar in Pigalle (an area of Paris) the night before the Olympia hall show (3 feb.08).
It was 10:30pm then with 2 friends we jumped in a cab.
AND ... he was there with everybody. We waited at the bar then when he left I said "Hello Morrissey". As I went to 45 gigs for the last 20 months he recognized me, stopped and spoke with us few minutes, signed things, thanked me "for coming so many time" and left.
Before he left I said : "I will be at the Olympia tomorrow !!"
He replied : "Yes me too"
I know it is was a stupid question ....
For more details see this link (it is the complete story, on our French forum). I am Guillaume M Moz on it.
