The Smiths: Live at The Haçienda, Manchester (1983)

Poster for The Smiths: Live at The Haçienda, Manchester

This was the first hometown gig where the Smiths were headliners. As the band came on stage Morrissey greeted the fans "Hello you little charmers... we're the Smiths, how d'you do?" then launched into "You've Got Everything Now". Throughout the show, in one song out of two (faster numbers), Morrissey - who still looked ill at ease on stage at the time - had something to shake in his right hand while with the left one he held the microphone.
