Moz pulled a trick like this the (only?) time he toured Aus in the early 90s. said it was illness, left the country after only 1 show i think?
Yep, played Brisbane, left the country while his crew were setting up Sydney the next arvo. He came back though, played Livid 12 years later in the car park outside where he'd been s'posed to play in '91. Was 45 minutes late for an hour and a quarter set. YAY.

It's a difficult time, what with the flooding keeping him at his other job to all hours, the new house in nunhead, with the shonky windows and no furniture, cut the man some slack.

I have seen him play a full show before but that was also 11 years ago. He genuinely sounded sick last night. I guess I just have bad luck when it comes to seeing him live.

Oh, was Boston last night? He's been a trooper on this latest American tour circuit so far (no cancelled dates!) but there have been problems, as listed above. He's been touring for like two years straight--I think he really needs to take a break, but not before coming to Baltimore, please. Sorry, ENBB :(
― Virginia Plain, Wednesday, 27 June 2007 15:58 (sixteen years ago) link
Yeah, I was right miffed when he pulled out of Glastonbury '92 at the very last second (cue "Where's My Morrissey" t-shirts making their appearence around the site). In his place we got James singing "We Hate it When Our Friends Become Successful".
The times I've been to see him subsequently he's showed and played the full ticket, so hey.

2 July 2007
Following the postponement due to illness of several shows last week, we are delighted to announce that Morrissey's U.S. tour will recommence tonight at Wolf Trap in Vienna, Va. Morrissey was suffering with a viral infection that brought his show in Boston at the Bank Of America Pavilion to a halt after seven songs last Tuesday the 26th of June. . . . The Boston show has been successfully rescheduled for this Saturday the 7th of July, and all tickets from the original date will be honored.
Yay? I'll believe it when I'm happily leaving a fantastic show late Saturday night.

Oops, he did it again. B'more cancelled. Now I'm all dressed up and no place to go. Caught most of the show last nite in Wolf Trap--he seemed in a really good mood, but he seemed to cut out early--after a 1 song encore. Cross fingers for Boston!
― Virginia Plain, Tuesday, 3 July 2007 16:48 (sixteen years ago) link
WAIT WHAT??!?!??!?!?!
NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
― ENBB, Tuesday, 3 July 2007 17:44 (sixteen years ago) link
Looking back, I think maybe the reason he was in such a good mood was because he was souped up on meds. He was loopy, and when the band huddled arms to take their bow, he didn't come up again for an uncomfortably long time, until Mikey (I think) broke the huddle.
A tribute band is scheduled to play for free tonight at the venue in his stead--maybe he will watch?

― Virginia Plain, Monday, 9 July 2007 02:26 (sixteen years ago) link
Yes!!! In fact, it was incredible. He came out dressed in a tux and really gave it his all. We're still in awe of how great it was. For the last couple songs we snuck up front and were two rows from the stage. It was amazing.

it's one of those things that drives me crazy when other people don't notice it. they're like, "no, his voice sounds fine" when it's obviously (to me) being manipulated in little ways that play with the grain of it. same w/ some of those late merle haggard records -- almost nobody else (that i can find) seems to recognize how much his voice was being treated.

The protesters had two signs, one which said: “Bigmouth Indeed” and the other which seemed to have some sort of ‘cancelled’ trident, both one would imagine meant for protesting against Moz’s recent spate of far-right rhetoric which has seen him divide his fans while supporting political party For Britain.
pity the article was written by absolute morons. one would imagine that, yes, since the trident is the symbol of For Britain you morons
