Las Vegas, NV (Oct. 7, 1999)

House of Blues staff- LIARS!!!!!

I can understand wanting to diffuse a potentially volatile situation. However, to make up complete lies just to get people to leave peacefully after waiting in line several hours is completely unprofessional, not to mention the fact that it pisses me off!!!

Lie #1: When explaining to the crowd why the show has been cancelled,

a HOB employee announced that Alain Whyte had suffered a

"seizure" and was in the hospital. This gave the impression

that this was some sudden thing. We now know that this

back injury(NOT "seizure")had existed at least all day, and

possibly the night before.
Lie #2: Another employee announced to the crowd that the radio

station 97.1 would make an announcement the following day

at noon about the status of the show. This was a complete

fabrication. I called 97.1 the next day, needless to say,

they had no idea what I was talking about. In fact, I doubt

that a single DJ in Las Vegas has even heard of Morrissey.

Ya, like he's really going to reschedule the show, which was only a warm-up for the European tour which starts on Tuesday. It seemed like
an insult to our intelligence.
