English singer Morrissey has recently made a decision that is bound to upset some fans by canceling the 20th anniversary shows in celebration of You Are The Quarry. According to Stereogum, the venues in which the performances were expected to take place both announced the cancelations due to “unforeseen circumstances.” Moreover, the source adds how Morrissey is known for canceling shows at the last minute, so this may not come as a surprise for some.
To provide more insight and information as to why the shows are canceled, the musician’s manager took to Instagram to state, “Morrissey is receiving medical supervision for physical exhaustion. He has been ordered to rest for two weeks, and he will remain in Zurich.”
In this case, it makes it known that Morrissey’s reason for canceling was to prioritize his well-being and rest from the physical demands that performing inevitably gives you. Stereogum also includes a message from the scheduled California show openers in which they express their frustration with the cancellation, share how they are upset, but also admit they are not surprised.
