(Hecklerspray) One of this year's Coachella performers was Morrissey - a man so removed of happiness that a trip to a furniture shop, a stint watching paint dry and a visit to a cemetery bring more joy than an hour of his company. The much-publicised vegetarian got slightly pissy during his Friday slot as his nostrils sniffed the odour of burgers and other meaty delights. Of course he didn't keep his opinions to himself.During his performance at Coachella, Morrissey's passion for spreading the joy of non-meat based products came out in force. Whilst we badly wanted him to be dressed as a giant stick of celery, handing out leaflets and confusing drugged up hippies, he didn't. NME reports that midway through the set, Morrissey said:
"I can smell burning flesh and I hope to God it's human," as the smell of barbecued meat from nearby food stands wafted through the air. A few minutes later, the famous vegetarian walked off the stage in the middle of 'Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others'. He returned shortly afterward, saying, "The smell of burning animals is making me sick. I just couldn't bear it." - Far more humor over this silliness here
