Morrissey not well enough to appear on Jonathan Ross BBC Radio 2 [updated]
posted by davidt on Friday November 06 2009, @11:00PM

Update: 11/07 12:53 GMT:
Stanley Ogden writes:
Jonathan Ross stated that Morrissey will now not be appearing on his show this morning. He stated that the Mope has cancelled a few concerts recently due to ill health.

Also stated that now Ross can start his show with Bruce Springsteen and lead straight on to Lady GaGa, without Morrissey complaining.

How do you feel about Morrissey dropping the F-bomb during his recent concert in Hamburg, Germany? (suggested by Ken Stavitzke)
I support Morrissey's response
Morrissey could have replied differently
I am undecided
I don't care
The audience provocateur should be examined, not Morrissey's reply
