The man is back! he obviously doesnt want to let his fans down so its great he's back.

And to any of you who booed when he went of stage at Swindon please dont bother showing your faces tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He'll make it through the show and further problems will follow.

Cancel that UK tour dog and rest up for the more important West Coast run.

MozKrew for Life!!!

Lets hope he plays this tomorrow!

What is the point? He clearly is not well and presumably will continue to disappoint many fans who travel far and wide.

I guess the pound signs are too hard to turn down.

Good man!! I cant wait.
I have been hanging respectfully on to this ticket since you were unable to play in May.
As any TRUE fan would state we cant wait to see you but your health is more important to us.
Hope to see you tomorrow night.

but I'm not.A lot of crap has been written about Swindon (booing etc) but it was nothing like the Roundhouse where there was almost a riot. I'm really not looking forward to Ross/Brand/Walliams etc giving us bad news a few songs in AGAIN.
It'll be really strange tomorrow - just really hope he's up for it.
I'd far rather he cancel all dates and recovers fully. Then at future gigs we can all concentrate on the music rather than scanning Moz for signs of ill health.

As i'm going tomorrow night i'm obviously over the moon the gig is on, especially after the first cancellation, but i just hope you truly are feeling better, . . And not just trying to avoid disappointing your fans. . . . I would totally understand if you cancelled as you don't collapse for no reason and your health is the most important thing, . but if you do take to the stage tomorrow night as planned you'll recieve a hero's welcome. . . Can't wait, . We Love ya mozza!

I think he is carrying on because the tour has gone on long enough, i think he's just trying to get them done instead of cancelling them again, these dates should have been done ages ago.

He should consult people on here, because you all seem to know whats best for his health?

Dramarama!

I think this event may be the catalyst for the end of Morrisey's performing career. A health scare is probably the beginning of the end for our star Have fun at the shows - I would not be suprised if they were his last

i hope he makes a speedy return our dear mozzer,as for SWORDS ,fantastic , cant stop listening to it,my dearest love is a belter track.see you in dublin mozz all been well.

this is good news and i hope he is well and not risking future problems.

see you in Salisbury for the best birthday present ever

you see morrissey is loyal to us, fans. though am still concern for his health. should be a good gig, tho if anything would happen - i wont know what to do and will never recover.

god speed mozza. glad to have you at the RAH. i shall be there front row. "im okay my myself" as my bestfriend cant make it.

so anyone like extra ticket. no charge. call 07719742019

The Royal Albert Hall is steeped in English culture. As well as the big names, it hosts sports events and children's activities. I'd imagine that its stalwartness feels supportive in itself to artists. Morrissey could tease out some participation to spread the load of mostly carrying the show if it suited; I'm sure the response would be whopping.

Interesting data on RAH here - http://www.royalalberthall.com/about/default.aspx [royalalberthall.com]

Honestly, some of you Moz fans must be 12 year old gullable little girls.

He collapses and is unresponsive, according to HIS people. Then, when the ambulance arrives he's conherent. As a pre caution he's taken to hospital, but is released the very next day. Obviously, he wasn't all that ill after all. I mean the hospital wouldn't release someone after an overnight observation if they were deathly ill, and they certainly wouldn't let him do concerts. So he gets released after a few hours, wasting nurses and doctors time. All this, two days before an album is released. BREAKING NEWS! CNN, SKY, BBC... Media the World over cover the news and Morrissey's name is subsequently all over the media, then his album gets released. Timely.

If he was/is that ill, why is he even bothering with RAH? Could it be because he really wasn't ill at all, but rather crafting a plan to get people talking, just as Swords gets released?

This isn't the first time he's used "shock" and cheap tactics to sell records. Anyone recall his boycotting Canada, just days before the release of Ringleader? That just so happened to make World headlines too. How about splashing his naked body all over the inner sleeve to his last single? News media covered that as well.

He's playing a game, and you're all falling for his tricks. Seriously, he must be laughing himself to sleep,just as you all cry and pray he's okay. It's rather sad, really.

So of all the performers on the planet to collapse, it happens to be Moz, 48hrs before his album hits shelves.but he's okay now, ready to make tons of money at RAH. Really? You all buying that?

I Traveled to Florida in Feb. and was rewarded with two cancelled shows. Don't think he will not cancell a few more until he gets his energy back.

Once again I am sitting at home, wondering whether to make the journey to London tomorrow.

Here are a few outcomes:

1. Make the journey and the gig is cancelled.
2. Make the journey and listen to one or two badly sung songs and then the gig is postponed.
3. Make the journey and the gig will be brilliant (which is the best outcome, but doubtful, after just recovering from whatever mysterious ailment he had).
4. Take a chance that the gig will be cancelled, like last time, and get my money back.

Now there is a way that all this could be saved. Morrissey could, for once, inform his fans of whether he is going to perform and make it official. But, as always, he has left it to rumour and heresay, and the NME to let us know.

Morrissey, it can't be that hard to let your fans know, with a bit of notice. We bought your records, came to see you when things were tough and supported your comeback. So please, please, please let us get what we want. And that involves just letting us know, and being true to your loyal fans.

Don't know if this has been posted yet but the RAH site has confirmed tomorrow is still on

Here in the States, senior citizens can sign up for a service called Life Alert. It allows them to contact emergency services by pressing a button on a medallion they wear in case they case they fall and can't get to a phone. As the commercial for it says "it allows you to live alone with out being alone". It might be time for old Mozzer to sign up. Heck, it's endorsed by former US Surgeon General C Everett Koop!

...he's only overweight. And he's following Elvis' steps.

I took the keys from Maudlin street well
It's only bricks and mortar, oh truly I love you!

Oh Morrissey you parade around stage and make comments like I only do this for the money...and cancel shows that have poor ticket sales...You always manage to play your 20 show runs in LA...You never seem to get sick for those...I have been a fan for decades, but when you produce crap and slap a flashy title on it...and fire all the decent musicians you had...and manage to alienate truly devoted fans to the point where they are praying for you and all the hamsters in the world versus the millions of children suffering in this world...I say do as you once sang and get your ass off the stage...We are too stupid to stop buying tickets so do us a favor and the world and put an end to a dying career...Go out a star and not a lounge lizard which you are slowly becoming...I only say these things because I care...Your best songs are behind you your best performances are behind you...

Have just called the albert hall box office and they have informed me that they had confirmation last night that the gig will go ahead. I wish mozzas site would be a little more prompt at posting messages as i am sure there are many others like me who will be travelling a considerable distance. Im travelling down from tropical leicester and i am so excited about seeing sir mozza for the first time live since the very early smiths days when i saw him at rock city in nottingham!!

Just one thing i wish to confirm if anyone could please is i bought my tickets from ebay a place noy usually associated in the same breath as buy a genuine ticket!! and i have heard various horror stories regarding not being able to gain entry as they were not the original purchaser going to the venue. The tickets have no name on them just an account number and the seller assures me that there will be no issue with trying to prove identity at the RAH. Please confirm this as i would be gutted if i dont see the great mozza after all this

If he performs tonight and is still ill then so be it i wish him every luck in recovery but even if he bolts short at the gig i will still be happy that i have had the chance to see the great man again. One thing i would also like to mention to all the complete idiots who have posted unwelcome and nasty comments on here over the last few days is go and drop dead

I´m so happy that Morrissey feels better!

& I´m wishing him a wonderful concert tonight, the warmest reception by the fans, the best athomosphere, the perfect physical condition, a wonderful voice & most of all happiness! :-)

I imagine it quite difficult to return to the stage so soon after a collapse...I imagine myself in the situation & I think I would feel awkward & maybe worried - how anyone can think Morrissey did this as a publicity stunt is beyond me.

Anyway, I´m sending out my best wishes & I´m sure many others here do the same & the audience tonight will give a tremendously loving welcome! :-)

Take care, Morrissey, precious one.

i know there has been word on the NME site that the show is on but still no official word on the Morrissey site. this is bullshit. goes without saying i feel for ther guy who is obviously not well and would understand totally if the show was cancelled but on the day of the show it would be nice for the mgt or whoever runs his site to let people know officially if the show is on or not, a lot of people are probably making a long trip to this show and until there is official word and not just the NME I still think it is up in the air. They must know by now. i just find it weird that Morrissey has such dedicated fans but they are probably treated worse than any other fans i know, maybe not by morrissey himself but his mgt or whoever should get their shit together and let people know for sure what the fuck is going on with the show tonight.

My Dearest Moz,
Hope your recovery is steady. It is honourable that you made your best attempt to plow ahead with the rescheduled shows even though you were feeling poorly. However, we mustn't be foolhardy with our health. Please take it easy and pace yourself. Your true fans understand. If you must resume in London, might I suggest a seated/semi-seated (you & the band) intimate acoustic set? That would be a treat for those there, actually. "Welcome to my living room," truly.

Ever Yours with Love,

It just occured to me that he collapsed a long time before that (although probably for different reasons): during the Smiths era. There was another time when he had to be rushed to the hospital, with a 102F fever : during the beginning of his solo career.

Morrissey hates this website.

Just hang in there for London and Leeds!

You fucking tosser. You fucking anonymous cowardly tosser.

Is that you Steven? Unfortunately the Chiefs are in the studio at the mo' but Mike Joyce is free and available and will even waive a 25 per cent appearance fee. You sick fucker. Funny tho'

This is just a creepy, poorly written piece of garbage - doesn't even work as an ironic piece, as it lacks humour and subtlety.

Your attention here please. Excise.

What shit is this? How can you even compare the two? Moz has sold something like what, 3 million albums in his career to MJ's 750 million? You are a fool and a sicko with too much time on your hands!

That is one bitter and twisted mind. You need help. Pure and simple.

a little saner?

The movie playing in your addled brain must be some horror show!

Although I have to say that the tone of your piece is very well thought out, in that I can't tell if you need psychiatric help, if you're laughing at your own dumb joke, or if you're sat sobbing / masturbating over a poster of Morrissey / Michael Jackson as I type this. Please write in to your social worker and let them know, there are things that can be done to help.

Oh and one more thing, nobody "raised millions of dollars to promote Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome". However, they might have raised money to promote awareness of this horrible condition that you've so casually trivialised.

Yeeeessh! People are strange!

Who are you, stupid bastard? I think you want some attention to you, but you choose a terrible way to ask for this. If you don`t have GOOD and RELEVANT things to say, don`t SAY ANYTHING. We don`t want any stupid idiot making speculations about his health and life. How can you make a horrible comparison between him and MJ. I respect all MJ`s fans, but all of them know he had big problems, and love him anyway. But Moss and him are completely different, it is absurd and cruel write this things. Please, try to find a good thing to do, to get the attention you need. You very brave to say all this here, but I don`t think you have the courage to say again in front of his fans. You are coward! Take care of you life, and don`t waste your time talking about a person you don`t like.
By the way, all his fans are now praying and send to him good and positive thoughts and Moss will recover and will stay with us for a long, long, long, long, long, long time.

I can't believe someone has posted this! What on earth was you thinking and how can you be so insensitive to Morrissey and his fans.

You sick bastard!!!!

Personally, I don´t feel good about imagining Morrissey´s or anyone´s death when there´s no need for it - nor do I enjoy jokes about it.
However, the above comment doesn´t seem to be a crude joke on Morrissey, but a bitter & cynical, absurd snapshot of the press & the public in general & their behaviour when one of their worshipped heroes dies. Not only inspired by Michael Jackson´s death & what was to follow, but probably also by the way Morrissey´s collapse was the big topic in the media all Sunday.
Let´s face it, cynical & out of place as the comment may be - the picture that was painted in it was quite realistic, albeit in some points a bit over the top.

I don´t think the comment was directed against Morrissey or wishing for his death, it was directed against all the people who are greedy for sensations, no matter the cost.

Am I the only one who read it as such?

God, you truly are a fucked up individual. What a repulsive sack of shit you are. Replying to your own warped garbage.

Bloody fucking Christ! Morrissey is much more influential than Micahel 'baby molester" Jackson! Stop with the comparisons!

it's not rape if he wants it. though i heard thru the grapevine he had an upset stomach so it was more what he swallowed. jesse?
