Moz crew response:
STATEMENT ON KROQ & ALICE SHOW'S
September 21, 2004 Thank you to everyone for your kind letters of support and concern about Morrisseyâ??s well being. He sends his very best wishes and looks forward to seeing you all on tour over the next few months starting in Washington next week. What should have been a wonderful triumphant weekend playing to 35,000 of you in LA and 10,000 or you in San Francisco ended on Saturday morning with sinusitis, acute laryngitis and a high fever with orders from Dr Joseph Sugarman to get to bed and not speak for the next 48 hours at a minimum. Sadly we not only had to postpone the shows but also cancel (at great expense!) the video shoot for Let Me Kiss You which was due for Tuesday. The most important thing of course is Morrisseyâ??s health and we are happy to report that with the prescribed rest he will be ready to go next week and we will make an announcement later this week on a special event to make up for the KROQ show that all 35,000 of you who were there on Saturday will get to see and the same for the ALICE show in San Francisco. On a final note we understand that there are those in the Morrissey community on morrissey-solo.com spreading erroneous rumours about lawsuits and questioning whether KROQ did everything possible to bring you the information in a timely fashion. I can assure you that the rumours are false and the integrity of KROQ cannot be questioned. They handled a very difficult situation impeccably and you should treat anything you are told to the contrary as rubbish.
Best wishes,
Merck Mercuriadis

Anyone know if there are any openers for the DAR show next week? It doesn't appear so, I was just curious.
