An excerpt from Saint Morrissey
By MARK SIMPSON | March 28, 2006
Like many such victims at the time, I was in deep denial about what had happened. I pretended it was just a bit of fun, a laugh. That is was just “pop music.” I tried to forget about it. Put it down to experience. After all, I didn’t have time for such foolishness. I was Going to University, I was Going to Experience Life — or at least leave home, make some new friends, get drunk, and maybe even get laid. I certainly wasn’t going to let this blousy madman spoil it all.
