Morrissey‘s July UK tour, just recently built around the two outdoor shows at Castlefield Bowl in Manchester, has been postponed.
A statement from the singer’s management blames ‘logistical circumstances beyond our control’ for the latest of his tours to get disrupted. “We deeply regret any inconvenience to the fans and promise to reschedule UK and European dates as soon as possible,” it continues.
“The LIHS World Tour has been Morrissey’s most successful tour to date, having achieved record business for the artist in both the US and the UK. We thank all the fans for their support.”
Morrissey has been touring his latest solo album Low In High-School, a campaign which is becoming increasingly overshadowed by controversial interviews and blog posts in which he has, amongst other things, lent support to the new political party For Britain.
Postponed tour dates:
July
4 – Edinburgh, Usher Hall
7,8 – Manchester, Castlefield Bowl
10 – Portsmouth, Guildhall
12 – Reading, Rivermead
