Here’s the latest news on Morrissey’s cancelled, sold out Roundhouse shows in London – a preliminary statement:
“Morrissey’s concerts scheduled for Saturday and Sunday night at The Roundhouse have been postponed due to illness. The iconic artist lost his voice last night 5 songs in to the fourth night of a run of six sold out shows at the legendary venue. He has been ordered by doctors to rest for four days. The sold out UK tour is scheduled to continue in Doncaster on Wednesday night. All ticket holders to the Roundhouse dates should retain their tickets and an announcement will be made this week.
All ticket holders will be contacted directly where possible.
Information regarding rescheduling or refunding will be carried on GigsAndTours.com as soon as available.”
UPDATE (February 1, 2008):
This just in from promoters SJM:
(Please note: I did not write this and take no responsibility for the exceedingly poor grammar and spelling. I can spell ‘Roundhouse’. See, I just did.)
“MORRISSEY ROUNHOUSE SHOWS UNABLE TO BE RESCHEDULED
The organizers regret to announce that it has not been possible to reschedule Morrissey’s 3 postponed January shows at the Roundhouse. The original 6 night run was completely sold out and the three shows that did take place were historic.
The Artiste and Promoters tried strenuously to reschedule the three shows but it proved impossible.
We would like to extend our apologies to all of Morrissey’s loyal fans over this unavoidable situation
Ticket holders for the abandoned Friday 25th Jan show will be automatically refunded to patrons Credit Debit /Cards
Ticket holders for the cancelled Saturday 26th Jan and Sunday 27th Jan shows should return their unused tickets to point of purchase for a refund.
Season tickets holders will receive a 50% refund of the cost of the six day ticket to reflect the three missing shows.
Once again the Artiste and Promoters would like to apologise all disappointed fans of Morrissey at this outcome.”
