Mentioned at the very bottom of this article:

Liam Gallagher admits suffering from tinnitus - London Evening Standard

Excerpt:

Liam and Noel aren't the only famous musicians to fall victim to tinnitus; Coldplay's Chris Martin, The Who's Pete Townshend and Morrissey all suffer from the inner-ear condition.

He never appears to use earplugs onstage, so it would hardly be surprising after so many years of live performances.

Maybe that explains why he sticks with Jessie and Boz, the tinnitus makes them sound good in his head.

we'll let you know

Tinnitus. Nice name.

...Sharing a Roman slave with Liam Gallagher though... Eww. Don't know about that.

The London Evening Standard got it wrong. He suffers from an inner-rear condition.

Not surprised Morrissey has tinnitus. It's not curable, once the delicate hairs in the inner ear are damaged, that's it. There are one or two meds that can help but relief is minimal. I sleep with a white noise machine to keep the tinnitus in my ears from interfering with my sleep. I feel for Moz, I really do.

I know what you mean. The guy has a point though. Moz has pretty much messed up and lost it. Which is sad as he was great. He has to now rely on south America which welcomes most white English faves with open arms, just happy to have them.
I mean aged he still has jobbing no one Kristeen young and the same sort of set list.
