Morrissey at The State Theater
On Monday, Morrissey played in Funnyapolis. Some insist that he said 'Fannyapolis.' Either one is a pretty apt description of Minneapolis as far as I'm concerned. It was much more of a production than I was expecting. Huge sound, huge backdrop and a huge light show. Drawing was more challenging than I expected it to be. It was very dark and the only light I could catch was provided by the overactive light show. It's interesting to see a drawing develop under a strobe light. The Courteeners opened. I believe they were from Manchester. Here are the obligatory drawings:

Morrissey and band. The huge figure flexing it's muscles was actually an image of a sailor smoking a cigar... in the drawing it ended up looking more like some Egyptian Pharaoh... which is fine with me!
