Morrissey has pulled out of another gig after cancelling his headlining performance at the KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas.
The show was set to take place in Los Angeles tonight (Dec 10). It follows Morrissey postponing shows in Philadelphia and Boston last week.
Morrissey cites “illness in the touring party” for the cancellation. Sharing the news in a statement, it went on to say “it was hoped that conditions would improve the KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas performance as scheduled.”
“Morrissey looks forward to make it up to the Los Angeles fans as soon as possible.”

The singer caused controversy last month when he claimed that the likes of Spacey had been “unfairly attacked.”
Garbage frontwoman Shirley Manson then responded by Tweeting: “Morrissey has lost the fucking plot. Weinstein and Spacey unfairly attacked? For rape, sexual abuse and coercion etc. Fuck you Morrissey! Fuck YOU.”
‘Low In High School’ by Morrissey is out now.
