Doesn't mention Morrissey, but mentions Cure, Pixies etc, so why would we believe that Moz will be on the bill? There's no proof whatsoever.

pray for a decent line-up.

Dear God, I hope not..... Some random summer festivals are nice, but not a travelling lame-fest. Exspensive tickets, expensive food, exspensive parking, terrible seats, 30 minute(if you are lucky...) sets, horribly large venues, not to mention the types of crowds that you encounter at these things. The crowds at a lot of Morrissey shows are bad enough..... I wonder how many of the 'regulars' would follow the Lollapalooza tour around the country.....? No way in hell I would.

Lollapalooza hasn't been any good in years. Sure they may have some decent people play but the sets are like 20 minutes and the ticket prices are for shit.

Dear Friends,

I honestly fear that Morrissey would not be terribly welcomed at Lollapalooza. Historically, Lollapalooza has featured some "rough" acts (and always at least one hip-hop/R&B artist).

When I think of Lollapalooza I think of Pearl Jam, Nine Inch Nails, Rage Against the Machine, Jane's Addiction, and other acts! I don't think Lollapalooza has a very diversified image. I might be wrong; I can't recall all of the line-ups...
I have never been terribly impressed with much of Lollapalooza, although I try to keep an open mind-(?)

I am afraid drunken individuals would "BOO" Morrissey, and that would simply break my heart.

For example, when I saw 10,000 Maniacs perform their last tour with Natalie Merchant- a hideous thing happened. (This lovely concert was for "Our Time in Eden." The venue was Poplar Creek near Chicago, Illinois. I believe the year was 1994.) Anyway, Natalie Merchant was about to play "Everyday is Like Sunday." She introduced the song sweetly, saying: "Imagine yourself at a Morrissey concert!" People began booing and shouting obscenities. I was shocked beyond belief- I also almost cried. I thought her rendition was touching.

Anyhow, I hope this posting makes sense. I could not believe the ill-manners at a 10,000 Maniacs concert. (By the way, World Party was the opening act.)

Also, I would never be able to get close to the stage to almost touch Morrissey's hand at Lollapalooza. So I *will* go to Lollapalooza, but I think Morrissey would shine better in the smaller venues, and I think he knows that!

Love,

Ken Stavitzke

...it will be so strange for me to know moz is in town and not be at the show....

my prediction: Moz plays the first 3 dates, then leaves the tour (to much publicity, i'm sure). If he didn't like opening for Bowie in '95, he's not going to like doing this festival any better.

this is soundin the same as the Coachella rumours [bullshite], except this is even more unbelievable. though im sure Perry Farrell is a Morrissey fan, he doesnt really fit the bill [as many are pointing out].

Morrissey, from deep in the heart of the Lone Star State, do not do this tour with others.

Just come to Dallas & Austin as rumored. By yourself please.

We will attend.

Thanks.

If Morrissey does play Lollapalooza I hope he does some solo shows too.I want to be able to get close to the stage and touch Morrissey`s hand.I want a whole show with Morrissey.
