Hold On To Morrissey - English Version

Days before all this excitement for the performance, Morrissey and his band rehearsed
in the Capital, the stay was as always at the Ritz Hotel and because of
those things of life my place of work was always as an itinerary to go with their
boys to eat, it was an eternal day of nerves and looks among my companions
to have the scoop and thus see it for the first time off the stage. I was informed
that there was a reservation in his name so I prepared myself with a pencil and a
record (Years of Refusal), the challenge was to wait for him one afternoon at the
exit of the restaurant, I dressed as a Chef because I had to leave my labors to run
for my big trophy, the guards settled in to let Moz pass, went out the back door
and only exploded with a hesitant voice “Morrissey please” leaving in his hands
his last musical work, which; he signed letting me touch his shoulder and very
friendly looked at me leaving among journalists and fans at that point, I couldn’t
even feel my feet.I went up to the dressing rooms with my biggest musical trophy
and burst into tears, which I shared on the phone with my dear mother.
Some good years have already passed, but I always wanted more, in 2015 he
returned to Chile and to the restaurant where I work 11 years ago, but this time I
could only see him eat a pizza that I prepared for him, again I wrote down to see
him live, my companion to the recital would be my mother, who already had a
sense of her great music, we had an incredible time between shouts and applause
from fervent fans, but it was more distant to touch his shoulder again.
Already resigned and with the feeling of never seeing him again, 2018 came with
a new Latin American tour and a musical trophy, but this time it would not be the
boss’s as his musicians affectionately call him.
