Despite recent fiascoes, I will indeed be fully present in blood-soaked flesh at the House of Blues in Las Vegas on July 26 (Friday) and 27 (Saturday). Having hung upside down for several months, I am now in good health - like an arrow fully drawn and waiting to be fired: please fling me. The 26th has ordained the first U.S. release of Beethoven Was Deaf, a live recording in Paris for your private use. Signed copies of the vinyl will be available at the House of Blues for those of you who still run upstairs whenever the doorbell rings (I certainly do.) Life begins again with full accompaniment from Jesse Tobias (guitar), Carmen Vandenberg (guitar), Camila Grey (keyboards), Solomon Walker (bass), and Matthew Walker (drums.) Expect a night of thrust and parry - no-show tunes. If you can find a decent pair of shoes, by all means come along. There is nothing quite like physical proximity, I am assured. If you would rather not come, then you are obviously one-half of a twin pair of parakeets. Some people sing, some poison the air. But if life is meaningless then why was there not always nothing? For those of you 85 and over who are still waiting for Bonfire Of Teenagers to be released, good news is finally within our grasp.
Hopefully, I will smell you in Vegas - where the audiences always stay the same age ... are you in the mood?
at large — Morrissey
BOT and WMTWD on Rhino.
You think so? I hope this is trueBOT and WMTWD on Rhino.
Could be, as they quote Morrissey‘s full words, which mentions BOT.BOT and WMTWD on Rhino.
"Rhino is the catalogue development and marketing division of Warner Music Group. Founded in 1978, Rhino continues to set the standard for excellence in the reissue business it pioneered in both the physical and digital worlds with an emphasis on flawless sound quality, bonus tracks, informative liner notes, award-winning creative packaging, and a strong social conscience" (via).Or is Rhino only releasing Re-releases?![]()
Has Morrissey ever just done a mini 4 date tour? It surely can't justify the cost and expense of getting everything together, band, crew, rehearsals etc. Presumably, he will either add extra dates or decide not to go ahead. Let's hope it's the former...
After recent cancellation calamities, it could be he's just dipping his toe in the water, and intending to prove to audiences, promoters and his insurance company that he can actually turn up? But presuming these go ahead smoothly, I'd expect a full-on tour to be announced.Has Morrissey ever just done a mini 4 date tour?

God, I hope that is the case!After recent cancellation calamities, it could be he's just dipping his toe in the water, and intending to prove to audiences, promoters and his insurance company that he can actually turn up?
