Who has ever been lucky enough to meet him? When/where, etc?

I Also, his music has been so dear to me that the chance of him being a standoffish prick would be a major disappointment...

I posted about it in 2006, in response to a concern that zom had:

I don't have insight into a great many things, but this I do, so I'll share.
I was rewarded with the opportunity to meet Morrissey at the end of the 2004 tour, as were about 10 other fans, after the show in Dublin.
This man couldn't have been more gracious, kind, and generous to us.
For example: I distinctly remember towards the end of our meeting, an LA fan handed Morrissey a letter from his friend and said to Moz, "this is from Linda(?), she's sorry she couldn't be here but she wanted you to have this." Moz took the letter from him, looked him in the eye, earnestly said "thank you" and nodded his head, and then he gave the fan a great big hug. Such warmth, respect and empathy were just flowing from the man.
I don't really want to go into my experience because it was just so wonderful and personal, but I guarantee you this - if you're ever lucky enough to meet him (in a respectful manner, not by crashing his party or whatever), you will not be disappointed.
As one of the members of his entourage told me - if you love the man, he knows it. And he treats you with all the gentleness, respect, and appreciation in the world.
He saves his snippy comments for all his celebrity "it's-fashionable-at-the-moment-to-like-Morrissey" pseudo-fans.
Musings
I met the old queen once. Her eyes are as freakin blue as the sky. It was weird.
Clearly you let those blue eyes fool you into thinking that Moz is female.
LOL! Oh those eyes though- thems is eyes you could get lost in. I have very blue eyes too, our children would have lovely eyes.... Do you think that I could persuade him to let me bare his children based on this fact alone?!
Mine are green. I find I get a lot of attention because of them. Anyone care to be fooled?
