Looks like back spasms are contagious. They're brought on by little germs known as Morrissey fans.I've had a headache for the past 4 days, so I know a bit how ya feel. Get to bed, you.

I couldn't believe when the guy made that announcement after I stood outside for about 40 min in the supid cold. I've waited so long for this moment Morrissey. I worked a 20 hour shift at work Sunday/Monday just so I was able to go to the show. I'm not exaggerating either. Morrissey please tell us you'll be back here. Hope you feel better soon.

Morrissey............AGAIN cancels Pittsburgh
"theres gonna be some trouble.......a whole town will need rebuilding......and everyone I don't love in the town will recline on an analyst's couch quite soon"
maybe it was just easier to go to Boston(and the big money) from Hamilton, ON.,than stop in "steelmill town that the forgot to close down"

this is the 2nd time this tour i have flown to see a show that was cancelled at the last minute..all i got was to barely hear a soundcheck...dont you hate it when you catch a back spasm from someone??morrissey hasnt played pittsburgh since the smiths (ii think)...i should have known not to come here..but i will see you in boston etc...
?
@#!!!tsburgh pa - Fri, Feb 18, 2000 at 04:26:21 (PST) | #16
I understand these things happen, but why the hell did it go to the last minute. They must have known he wasn't gonna go on long before show time. I left for the concert at 5:30 PM and they were still promoting it on the radio.

The only thing that upsets me about this cancellation is that it wasn't until 1/2 hour before the start time. Lots of time wasted, lots of money wasted, then we hit the Southside and got wasted... Many friend drove in from up to 4 hours away for this show. Aggghhhh... I won't be holding my breath for a re-schedule anytime soon, but I hope he does. Take some Aleve, the wonder drug, and buck up little camper.

Morrissey is the BIGGEST BABY in the world. First his career is in the dumps. No record label wants him, his output as late has been crap at best and laughable at worst. Now a backache and headache. He better get it together or maybe his last bit of income, from touring, will dry-up too.
Boo-Hoo

I'm writing a new screenplay about a porthole to Morrissey's brain- the headache he so suddenly got makes it a tight fit in here, but you get to see/hear him laughing as he cancels show after show!

Morrissey with back pains? First it was Alain.... now Morrissey; first it was Las Vegas, now this. This can't be happening. Hmmm.... maybe it's Alain again. Maybe they got the two mixed up. Mistakes do happen, just like when they thought one time that Morrissey was a fan/stage rusher and he got thrown out during the encore. Hmmm.... I wonder. In any case, I hope you get better. Looking forward to the rest of the tour.

Morrissey, these long tours are obviously unhealthy, I recommend you pack your bags and head back home to Los Angeles where we miss you dearly. I have been feeding your cat but it's not the same without your bright smile around here. Cancel the tour, let's have a cup of tea and talk about music or books.

Dan,#19Whats your deal man? If Morrissey's Career was in the Dumps He wouldn't have any fans! At least he is doing something! I feel you are just a bitter a**hole and I think you suck! Morrissey is the Best! No record label doesn't want Morrissey cos he is probally one of the very few people in the record Industry with Talent and Emotion! Dan I bet you like MTV music don't you? Gary, Why are you soo damn hostile towards Morrissey? Huh are you mad cos he cancelled? Well I would be a bit angry too but give some respect to the MAN! Please! Nick, Yanks is a very racist comment! I don't appriciate that! England hates Morrissey thats why he lives in America! Americans appriciate Morrissey unlike your country treating him like an outsider or like Trash! So I suggest shut your cake hole! I surely do hope Morrissey gets better! I would really love to see him do a Texas Show!

You know I wish I could see all your sad puffy faces. There's nothing funnier than a whole crowd of monkeyjacks with sullen pouty pouts or angry scowls. I especially think it is funny so many travelled many miles and hours only to be met with Cancell-la-la-la-elation-shun shun. Hah ahahahhhhaaa..Morrisey, you go dawggie diggity dawgie cat! You are a man after my own heart, to incite a large crowd is just too damn funny. I wish Moozy Moz would have photocopied his ass and handed them out to you jackmutts with the words: I cancelled thanks for understanding. Man, if I travelled 20 hours to get there and he cancelled on me, sure I'd be higgy hoggy pissed but guess what? didn't happen to me..man am i laughing and giggling as I choke my hamsters to the tune of Interlude..hoo hoo

Poor Morrissey? He has suckered all of you in to believing he has any worth in the music industry. Aren't any of you sick of the "poor me" routine that has been going on for 15+ years? I have been a listening to Morrissey since '84 and I have to admit that he is getting old, tiring, and lacks anything useful to say...

Dan,There you go again! How dare you speak one of my idols that way! In your opinion Morrissey's music has turned into crap! But your opinion means jackity shmack to me! Morrissey has something that no Artist has ( Talent and Emotion)! Who cares if he doesn't have a record company, at least he is not being controlled like a puppet by some buisness freak that doesn't know jack sh*t about music! Morrissey has never been boring its just his soo called fans are a**holes and don't realize that the times are changing! But oh well how would I know anything Im stupid and young! But give some thought in what you say? Ok! Suzanne, Are you refering to me being Childish! Well if you are, LET ME inform you, THAT I AM A CHILD! Okkie Dokkie! Peace Love and Morrissey and Geri POWER! hehehehe

Anna honey. Obviously my opinion does mean "jackity shmack" to you or why would you carry on like you do? Oh yes, you already said it about yourself, "oh well how would I know anything I'm stupid and young!" and also, "THAT I AM A CHILD! Okkie Dokkie"Anna, put your efforts towards something productive. If only Anna used her energy for good, instead of evil…

you know, Anna, i find a certain pattern about you. You always think I'm out to get you for some reason. I don't know why. What I said wasn't even for you, ya big doofus.It's starting to resemble that case of the guy who got a seizure every time he heard Leeza Gibbon's voice.

Suzanne,Maybe you should address your Comment to who ever its supposed to go to ok! Dan, Im really begining to not like you! I first off want to get my P.O.V. across! I really don't care what you think! About the whole Im stupid and young thing, it was sarcasm ya know! Cos its seems to me you are like one of Morrissey middle aged fans that treat younger fans (such as myself) like Garbage! Okkie Dokkie! Oh thanks for your comments Dan and Suzanne, I apprieciate other people's opinions about me! They boost my self esteem or it doesn't affect it at all! PEACE LOVE Morrissey and Geri POWER!

- Sat, Feb 19, 2000 at 17:37:16 (PST) | #45
I was very disappointed that Moz had to cancel last-minute like that. I skipped a day of classes and drove 6 hours to be greeted with that kind of news. I guess it could be legit, but it would be quite understandable if it was not. I think Morrissey has forgotten that his fans have made it possible for him to still live the rockstar lifestyle long after his true rockstar status has left him. Pittsburgh is not exactly the pinnacle of american civilization, and I can say this after spending the last 3 days there, but a commitment is a commitment. Morrissey, please take the cock out of your ass and come back to Pittsburgh. Maybe you could make it on a weekend. That would be much better. Thanks a lot.
p.s. Good luck getting a record deal when you can't even show up to your shows. Bye!

Suzanne,you should talk about being childish! Sitting there at home (or whereever) and continually writing on this website is somewhat childish to me...and to top it off, trying to write a response to sound so intelligent...your an ass like that gary lanning person....quit being a hypocrite!! GO AWAY !!! or should i make it sound intelligent like you....PLEASE VACATE THE PREMISES !!! hahahaha

For someone who has such a loyal fan base, it's really unbelievable how much he can screw them. Back spasms, Migraines ... they're just an excuse. If he didn't want to play Pittsburgh, fine then don't schedule it. The show had to be moved to a bigger venue due to support and then
he cancels 1/2 hour before. He can go to hell I hope he doesn't reschedule. (I can't wait to read the backlash) I'm a fan and will continue to listen to and buy Morrissey CDs. But people must separate the work from the man. The work is very good, the man is an @#!!! who deserves niether thinking or talking about. (I realize the contradiction of writing this on a Morrissey site)

i dont know if it was legit or not. i dont know if it was back spasms or the venue or the promoter being a dick or if that dress i wore realy is cursed. all i know is that my ex-boyfriend looked so sad with that boquet of roses. he always did love you more than he did me.

feb. 17 was a really sad night for a lot of people, i knew a lot of people that came a LONG way for the show.. but none of the people i know would bash morrissey the way some of you are.. i hope he comes back too, but really don't think it is going to happen.
morrissey i love you very much, and if you just hate pittsburgh than so be it, i don't think it's the most incredible place on earth, to say the least, myself.
not to shake your hands
pittsburgh - Tue, Feb 22, 2000 at 13:51:58 (PST) | #55
To Mr. Gary Lanning (and I use that term loosely!) : That "DIE" comment was wrong ! DO NOT attend his rescheduled concert. We know who you are and it won't be pretty. Morrissey is awesome LIVE, too bad YOU won't get the chance to witness it !!!
Come to wish you an unhappy birthday!!
Dravosburg - Wed, Feb 23, 2000 at 04:41:22 (PST) | #56
the hysteria has yet to die down! we are reduced to insulting and namecalling -eachother, cities, venues, and the Moz himself...ohh well, we'll never learn...screw you, yes you! you self-righteous, holier-than-thou, Wilde reading, tea sippin', meat eatin', cow rustlin', f'ing fakes...this includes the aforementioned God...er...Morrissey. I hope you read this site and bathe in the vitrol the fans have to offer- open up- wide to receive- take it straight up the arse! responses welcome -even idiotic ones-thanks for making me feel important.

I was crushed, absolutely crushed. This was going to be my first time seeing him, and now, I'm totally not optimistic about the chances of him coming back, it's been since when, 1986? And recently, I heard someone draw the paralell of Moz to "Haley's Comet." Not Good. I cried. I stood there, jaw dropped. It was all I talked about for days, and then...postponed??? I was a bit late getting there due to circumstances beyond my control, but that was okay, I wasn't too concerned with the opening act, anyway. I didn't hear it announced on the radio, because of course I had in a Moz CD! (Southpaw, at the time) So when we pull into the parking lot right across from the AJ Palumbo, there's many vacant spaces. Why didn't I think anything of that? It wasn't until I got out and saw that big, horrible, dreaded, god-forsaken electronic sign thing flashing the glum announcement, and depressed looking crowds of mostly males ages 25 to 35 wearing black head to toe standing around outside (which I still though nothing of) that I knew. It hit hard. Please come back, Morrissey, I really can't fly to Argentina this summer...
