Morrissey - NJPAC, Newark, NJ 12/1/2022

 From the epic opener How Soon is Now? to the majestic Everyday is Like Sunday to the "hug him if you can" closing song Sweet and Tender Hooligan, this was an amazing concert by an amazing performer. Morrissey is that grumpy guy you can't help but love. There was not a moment that felt disingenuous. I wanted more, but did not feel cheated at any point. 

 I can only hope he returns soon so I can see him again. 

  The setlist was made up mostly of solo songs, including a couple new songs which were really good, and a few songs from his time with The Smiths.

 Here is the setlist: 


 

How Soon is Now? (The Smiths song)

 First of the Gang to Die

 We Hate it When Our Friends Become Successful

Our Frank

Rebels Without Applause

I Am Veronica

The Bullfighter Dies

Jim Jim Falls

Girlfriend in a Coma (The Smiths song)

The Loop

Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before (The Smiths song)

Sure Enough, the Telephone Rings

Irish Blood, English Heart

Half a Person (The Smiths song)

Everyday is Like Sunday

Knockabout World

Saint in a Stained Glass Window

Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want (The Smiths song)

Jack the Ripper

  *Encore*

Sweet and Tender Hooligan (The Smiths song)
