Morrissey gig will not be rescheduled
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 17 November 2009
Morrissey’s gig at the Liverpool Echo Arena, which was cut short one and half songs in after an audience member threw a drink at the singer, leading Mozza storming off in a huff, won’t be rescheduled.
Promoters had hoped to reschedule the show, possibly with a big plastic screen separating Morrissey from those pesky drink-throwing scousers, but it’s not to be. Perhaps the plastic screen would have proved too expensive, while proposals Mozza have lessons in how to duck were deemed unviable.
Whatever, Morrissey’s Liverpool fans will get a refund for the halted show. As previously reported, management at the Echo Arena have reported the drink-throwing incident to the police. Though it’s possible they’ve got better things to be doing than following the case up.
