Morrissey cancels Mexico (again and again and again)
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.
