are we sure this is right? $25 a ticket? doesn't sound like Morrissey.

if he plans to do more dates in march (an i hope he does in the US) then i hope he announces them soon. last minute is not a good idea.

    maybe these are only Texas makeup dates (Score:0)
    perhaps these are only makeup Texas dates he missed during the last tour and there will be no US tour before the UK. at least it's respectful to give them the head of the tour since Texas has been screwed in the past.

    it would be funny if morrissey gets 'sick' again. some kind of cruel joke.

            Dos Amigos is an unusual place to see Morrissey, however, I have seen him perform in the worst of venues - such as YUMA. Anyway, Dos Amigos inside stage floor capacity is 1,000 and the outside stage floor capacity is 3,000. I don't know which stage he'll be performing on - I'm assuming the inside stage.

            Call and find out - 432.468.7556.

                    It's a well known fact that Morrissey has a large Latino fanbase. Im sure playing in Texas and opening for Jaguares (Mexican rock band) has something to do with this. We all love Moz just as much as his Europeans fans and we've supported him through thick and thin as his moving to Los Angeles indicated. So lay off the guy.
