Morissey's First Solo Show Post Smiths Is A Fascinating Watch 12/22/1988  

There are so many amazing things that happen in this video.  Not the least of which are the army of fans that, one by one, charge the stage just to touch the guy....and how he doesn't discourage them...but he and the band just keep plowing through the song as best they can.  It really gets ramped up at the 8:21 mark as they are just getting into one of my favorite songs "Interesting Drug"...

This was just the right person for just the right place and time...and I'm a big fan.
