[update - paper incorrect] Toronto Massey Hall (Oct 14, 15) confirmed according to Toronto Sun
posted by davidt on Friday May 26 2006, @11:00AM

 Update: 05/26 21:23 GMT: from a record label source:

"Just to clear up any confusion Morrissey has no dates booked after August 25th, 2006 in North America or anywhere else in the world. The statement from the Toronto Sun is inaccurate and unfortunately only leads to confusion for Morrissey fans."

that he was not playing Canada on this tour, he obviously meant "i won't play Cananda on the first LEG of this tour"

    And the article is not about Morrissey. His name appears in a long list of summer gigs. So I wouldn't get my hopes up, you Canadians.

      He played this venue in 97' I remember. How about coming back to the Commodore, or Reds, or MacEwan Hall? Maybe next time.

        why would they have any dates, especially two.

        the label are backtracking cos' the north american tour isn't confirmed and these got leaked.

        i bet those will be the dates that get announced later this summer.

        mark my words mofo's.

          PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let it be true. I find it highly unlikely Morrissey plans to play Canada, but im praying its true. Im out in Western Canada from Scotland working and I was dying to see Moz perform in Canada. Im hoping he's relented......but sadly, I dont think its going to happen. Yet, I called the venue and they said they could "neither confirm nor deny Morrissey is Booked" - sounds a tad elusive....

                Surely Not By Choice (Score:0)
                If this ends up being true, than most likely it was not Morrissey's choice. More than likely it was Sanctuary saying, "You screwed up the Canadian album says with your ignorant coments, now you are going to fix it, or face legal action".

                If playing Toronto is by his choice, than it shows how big of a HYPOCRATE Morrissey really is.

                Either way, Morrissey ends up being a HYPOCRATE or a sore LOSER! Good going Moz !!!

                it's just that sanctuary wanted to announce the whole tour at once.

                  I say with the utmost respect for the principle of equality & fairness when I state: Canadians are fast becoming a problem on this God blessed planet.

                  The thought of even Morrissey considering playing a concert in Canada is completely and utterly outrageous. I have about had it up to here with these "people's" whining and complaining about how it's just the seal hunters fault. NONSENSE. They are all to blame for their "cultural stain" on their -- piece of rock. This argument does not apply to American's varying views of the war in Iraq, because that's irrelevent and Americans are a lot more respected in the world community.

                  I hope Morrissey is not being pressured to play in Canada by anyone even his record label, because if he is, he should drop his label, cancel his concerts, hell, even RETIRE if he has to ... anything to stick to his principle and uphold the universal boycott against "it".

                  As far as his comments regarding the holocaust and comparing it to the seal event, even THAT, plus, let's see .. apartheid, rwanda & armenian genocide, cold war, vietnam, slavery ... these would not have been anywhere near sleights on humanity if they had targeted CANADIANS.

                  Netizens of the rest of the world ... stick it to "canaduh" ANY WAY YOU CAN. The battle is only just begun.

                  AMEN!

                  The friendly message from the record label was a considerate intervention and I'm curious whether it was made in a general press statement, or specifically sent to the T Sun or to Morrissey-solo. It still doesn't rule out a U.S. tour; who else did you sing "I like you" to so far this year?!"
