Excerpt:

Despite recent rumors, it now seems unlikely that Morrissey will appear in St. Petersburg, as local promoters seem unwilling to take the risk of bringing him here (for which read: they probably don't know who he is).

However, he may play Moscow. According to Nick Hobbs of the promotion firm Charmenko - which is taking care of the British end of things - there is a "good chance" that Morrissey will play at 16 Tons on Oct. 29.

The date has been confirmed by the venue, but not yet by the artist, Hobbs said by telephone on Thursday. Watch this space.

    I scare dead people.
  • where is fan base is of a questionable size, to say the LEAST, but not in Boston, New York, Chicago, Washington DC, and countless other cities where he is a proven draw?

    Great tour manager he's got.

  • I'm impressed! I'm sure Russian gays and women would welcome Mozzer! Not to count art school students and Britpop-heads! Russians are Europe-savvy and they KNOW WHO MOZ IS!

    Advice to Moz: dress warm (fake fur coat and hat!) Prepare to drink a lot of alcohol. Prime Gay Russian club: Three Monkeys (Tri Obez'any).

    Remembering my college-years Russian...
