Apparently the morose one is leaving Canada out of his world tour plans in protest of our annual seal hunt. Somehow I don't think this will affect anyone except the fans who still buy his albums and those of us with a fondness for Morrissey's old group The Smiths, whom I was turned on to by my old dorm neighbour Dooee.
By the way, if he had played here, can you imagine anything more depressing than a Morrissey show at The Docks in the rain? The only thing sadder would be the bad poetry inspired by such an event. Morrissey as a musician is a great song writer, but Morrissey as a man tends to come across like, well, a whining prick who takes himself too seriously.
And in case you missed it, Morrissey said The Smiths Turned Down 5 Million To Reunite At The Coachella Valley Festival.
