Morrissey cancels Mexico (again and again and again)

vusleeper October 31, 2025

Just four hours before the show, the venue issued a statement that Morrissey had cancelled his appearance at Palacio De Los Deportes, in Mexico City (on Halloween), and also in Guadalajara, in Mexico (on November 4). The reason was “agotamiento extremo” (“extreme exhaustion”). This is the third time that Morrissey cancelled Palacio de los Deportes, he originally cancelled the venue in 2023 and 2024!! Third time’s the charm, I guess.

When I was moving, I couldn’t bring everything with me. So, I thought the easiest thing was to leave my CDs, DVDs, and books behind. I figure I had already ripped all my DVDs and CDs, and, you know, I could always rebuild. I just didn’t have the room to bring everything with me.

Smiths is it!

In celebration of the late Andy Rourke, Blitz Vega announced his final album Northern Gentlemen. This was Rourke’s last project with Kav Blaggers. Spirit Power: The Best of Johnny Marr is a greatest hits album from guitarist extraordinaire Johnny Marr came out last year. Unfortunately, no The Smiths songs on the tracklisting. This is probably due to rights issue and most likely because they wanted to keep this strictly Marr’s solo work. The official Morrissey merchandise store, Mporium is offering a limited-edition Morrissey Peace Sign Harrington Jacket for £85 pre-order (shipping in April 2024). Unfortunately, this is only offered on their UK website. I kind of want it, I would’ve ordered it, but unfortunately, I don’t live in the UK.
