SXSW 2006: Morrissey, Flinging

A cheery, confident Morrissey comes out grinning - yes, that's a grin if you look at it carefully - and a little goofy for his onstage interview and conversation with Rolling Stone writer David Fricke.

 

SXSW is packed with star interviews this year, and here the Moz pretends to toss a cushion from his plush chair into the delirious crowd. It's a canny way to break the ice. Morrissey is not exactly a chatterbox - he chooses words for quality, not volume - but he ends up being witty, warm, and very much his own man.
