Morrissey Keeps Promise For Make-Up Dates

True to you and all of his fans, Morrissey has announced a series of headline dates in the Southwestern U.S., making up for several shows in 2016 that were postponed and ultimately canceled after the collapse of a band member.

Moore Theatre, Seattle, Wash.

The first scheduled appearance is at When We Were Young Fest, which runs April 8-9 at The Observatory in Santa Ana, Calif. The daily lineups have not yet been announced for that festival, so while Morrissey has been confirmed as a performer, we do not have official word on which day he is playing.

Three of the five new gigs are headline shows in Texas, including the closer at Majestic Theatre in Dallas April 15. There is also one gig in Arizona on April 10.The only venue which he had booked in his previously canceled routing is White Oak Music Hall in Houston.

The end of Morrissey’s last U.S. run was called off when Gustavo Manzur collapsed before a Nov. 14 show in Boulder, Colo. Though Manzur was ultimately expected to make a full recovery, the cancellation of the Boulder show meant that the cash flow stopped and there was “not even enough money to transport the touring party to the next scheduled city.”

Check out the routing:
April 8-9 – Santa Ana, Calif., The Observatory (When We Were Young Fest)
April 10 – Tucson, Ariz., Fox Tucson Theatre
April 12 – San Antonio, Texas, H-E-B Performance Hall At The Tobin Center
April 14 – Houston, Texas, White Oak Music Hall
April 15 – Dallas, Texas, Majestic Theatre
