oops! Vetiver was misinformed, and Morrissey has now chosen Girlfriend in a Coma.

cheers!

We are not opening, from Vetiver
hey everybody....

ok, so....basically we just got a call a half hour ago to find out that we in fact ARE NOT now opening for Morrissey after all. as it turns out, friends of his, a NYC band called "Girlfriend In A Coma" are now opening up the shows, and Morrissey has apparently apologized and told us that he is "very, very sorry", that he likes Vetiver very much, but that "it just doesn't make sense".

you're telling me!

so anyway, no hard feelings, we're all actually very excited to head home and get some rest, and i'm sure all of this will be for the best.

tour w/ Morrissey? we Never Had No One Ever!

love to you all,

Vetiver

Well they obviously like our Moz and hopefully make any ridiculous comments to upset him!

    At least we know they aren't intelligent enough to say anything too dangerous, or good looking enough to incite jealousy. Unlike the Dearly Departed.

    Congratulations, 'Girls'!
    So looking forward to Greenville and Atlanta!!!
    It was the perfect story hearing how you met Moz at the Viper Room. Could life be any more surprising and fortunate for you this year? :)
    I've loved hearing your single (the one Moz sang back to you, so I heard ;) during his preshows and now it's going to be live with all of you. Soooo awwwesome!!!

      If you don't have anything intelligent to say then don't say anything. Listen to them first you misogynistic idiot (Elvis Dpressly). Since when does the weight of a person have anything to do with talent. These girls have more talent and heart than you will ever have in your whole life you bafoon.

      I only wish they would have been the opening act in February, March and June when I had to sit through all the screaming and screeching.
