Morrissey cancels show after being hit on head

Fresh off a stage collapse that led to the cancellation of several shows, Morrissey made another early exit last night (Nov. 7) after a fan threw a drink at his head. The incident occurred during Moz’s second song of the evening, “Black Cloud”, and saw the singer simply say “goodbye” before exciting the stage. According to NME, the show was stopped for around 15 before a member of the crew announced that the singer had been hit on the head by a bottle and the concert would not continue. The audience were told they would receive a full refund.

The Music Slut has posted video of the incident online, so if you’re looking to put moving images behind the above description, check it out below.

As of now, Morrissey is scheduled to continue his currently ongoing world tour on Monday, November 9th in Nijmegen.

  1. HE does not need to hang it it…he has been around a really long time and to be treated so disrespectfully…i would have done the same thing. Its embarrassing

  2. Morrissey just canceled his appearance at Fanatasy Springs in Indio tonight. No reason given. This guy needs to hang it up.

  3. su writes “good luck, hope he shows and doesn’t insult you like he insulted us!”

    You’re a d-bag, and a real Morrissey fan would understand why he did what he did.

    All I can say is that if I had been there and saw who threw it, that person would be getting a beatdown of a lifetime.

  4. Seriously? I thought it was a glass bottle, from the description.. A water bottle.. I mean, yeah, that’s really rude, but he totally overreacted.. At least they got a refund.

  5. good luck, hope he shows and doesn’t insult you like he insulted us!

  6. Morrissey’s Indio show is on Dec 5th!
