Although Morrissey's show in Miami was cancelled, most of the L.A. fans got together with some of Moz's crew to have a good time despite the cancellation. Here's a link to some pictures taken that night. I would love for others to share their pictures and stories too.

As for the cancellation, Moz is sick and THAT is the truth. I was sitting on the plane from Miami back to L.A. with one of the Lads in the band. He was VERY sick, I witnessed it first hand. As a matter of fact, the entire band is sick. He told me that the Lads could have managed to perform that night despite being sick since they don’t have to sing. The problem is that Moz simply couldn’t sing. They spend most of their time together on a tour bus so when one person gets sick, they’ll all eventually get sick. It was not lost on him that there were a lot of people (such as myself) who flew in from far away (L.A.) to catch the final show of the tour. There was true sincerity and sadness regarding the cancellation.

Get well soon, Moz!

(Moz has his own bus. But, of course, his close contact with all the members of the band leads to him inevitably getting sick if they are.)

    I looked through a couple of the photos in the photoset. Bad judgement, I think, posting those.

    Saw quite a few people I recognized by face, and some by name.
    I see Milky in there, a great guy, someone who has always been very kind to me... I hope you didn't cost him his job!

    Thank you for sharing your photo with us. Eventhough you can attest to Moz being sick, people will still be skeptical.

            How is this a headline on the main page? (Score:0)
            I don't understand how pics of the L.A. fans having fun on Miami Beach with unknown crew members is a headline on the main page. Furthermore, the "cancellation scoop" is more hearsay on Moz's illness. Even if you were on a flight with one of the lads, do you think he would dare tell you anything other than that Moz was indeed sick? Of course not!

            My opinion is that the main page should consist of newsworthy items about Moz, not personal photos and hearsay.

              Silver Lining to Moz Miami Illness (Score:1)
              Fellow Moz Fanz,

              Keep this in mind: usually when Moz cancels shows due to illness, he rewards the city with multiple shows in the future

              Vega$ ’99 when he cancelled in October it meant 2 shows later in December 1999 - in 2002 he also played 2 shows n September -and also he opened AND closed the U.S. Quarry tour there in 2004 with shows in April and November in Vega$.

              He also made up for the NYC/East Coast sick shows with the “Frankenstein” Ballroom 5 nights and others…

              Soooooo: look for Miami to get multiple shows next tour :)

              That could happen as soon as January!

              "He'll be back out in January," manager Merck Mercuriadis says. "We'll take a short break and then start again in March."

              Viva,

              Jay

                As much as I do not believe in censorship,there needs to be some monitoring of some of the postings on this website. It should start with the person who keeps on posting the same nonsense over and over again about "the top 20 reasons to abhor "freeyourself". What is that crap? I'd also like to see the comments people leave ripping people apart that they don't even know removed. This is especially true when they single them out by name and photo! In my opinion, this is when David T.should use his discretion and delete certain postings. Aside from some of this nonsense this website is great when it comes to newsworthy items and has the potential to be even better.
