This morning our photo editor Patrick O'Dell had something he wanted to share with us. We could tell right when we got in because he was sitting facing the door kind of perched on his hands in "ready position" and fucking boring a hole in our faces with the dopey grin he was trying to hold down. He looked like he was in an excrutiating state of having to pee from not telling us whatever it was he wanted to, so finally we asked what was up and the flood gates let loose with "I hugged Morrissey onstage last Friday."We figured, OK, if he's this ramped up about hugging Morrissey he must have really given it the gusto. He must have cleaned that fucker out. It's not like he'd have just trotted across stage, rested his head on his shoulder like a toddler hugging their mom's leg and then finished up with a tit-pat before being walked offstage, and that's what he's about to bust a blood vessel waiting to tell us, right? [sigh], congrats Patrick. Thanks for the build-up.
