Deep down I know it’s unlikely but you never know.

I did actually have a cancellation followed by a realised rescheduling once. So I hope it works out for you.

 

[JameB]

What does Morrissey’s schedule have to do with his contemporaries’ schedule?
For Morrissey it is apparantly too much.

How many albums have The Cure released this century? Why compare that to Morrissey?

Each to their own I would say.

Yeah, cause they refuse to put out dogshit originals and cover albums like Moz does time and time again.

 

[Phranc & Open]

Jeez. Was kinda hoping that this was the case.

Wonder if the heckling has spooked some of the new members?

Afraid of more hecklers after playing it cool last evening? Maybe.

 

[Boz Boorer's Pint Glass]

Or Peter Hogg's?

Or Johnny Marr.

 

[ACTON]

I'd really like that Acton, i really would, 'its a burning car......'

Not to start an off-topic war but I have Foxx's Metamatic album on vinyl and it is as important to me as any Smiths or Moz album.

 

[Edith Sitwell's Nose]

I'd really love to know the inside track/truth as to why all these band members (and over the years) have left/leave or have been let go etc etc....would make a great story/book!?

Is Morrissey really that difficult to work with?! (As so many have suggested/hinted at), I know he seems like a perfectionist....or is it just personality clashes?!

I really like The Garden, too. Classy album.

 

[Mozzer1980]

I really like The Garden, too. Classy album.

I love "The Garden" one of my favourites albums all time
We fade away ...

 

[Marsadjusted]

This is very strange, that is on the way to Nottingham. Has he told the band it’s cancelled?!

 

[Anonymous Moz Junkie]

Hopefully there actually is a new date.

There wasn't for his canceled gigs in Minneapolis and Milwaukee last November. Took months to finally just outright cancel and refund. Was bummed.

Clash of egos I'm guessing.

It always makes me laugh on The Importance of Being Morrissey when he criticises Bowie for being up his own arse.

Zero self awareness.

Probably still got hotels booked in the area. Unless they all sleep on the tour bus.

It’s also on the way to Leeds, if you’re travelling north.

Im gonna agree totally with that, maybe songs about car crashes and concrete plazas aint everybodys cup of tea, but i effin love that album, i was excited about buying Foxx's early stuff as a kid as i was buying The Smiths stuff as a confused teenager, top album

 

[Girl Racer]

I’ve still yet to buy my leeds tickets…..I‘m just not willing to pay £130 (for two) and my Twickets offers keep getting rejected. Now wondering if it will even happen?

They still have to sleep somewhere!

But Leeds isn't sold out? Why would you try and get tickets on Twickets for £130 when you can buy then face £65 face value from the venue? https://www.millsqleeds.com/whatson-event/morrissey/

 

[Guest 999]

They should perhaps stay away.

 

[The Canada Goose]

Yeah, that's what I heard. Morrissey wasn't happy with the amount of heckling in Portsmouth, so tonight's show has been cancelled as a result. If true, I'm a bit annoyed with whoever did it.
