In a sudden move that has left Mexican music fans reeling, iconic British singer Morrissey has cancelled his entire scheduled tour of Mexico mere days before he was set to take the stage. The controversial former frontman of The Smiths was due to perform in Guadalajara on November 28th, followed by a Mexico City show on December 1st.
The announcement came via social media with minimal explanation, simply stating the cancellation was due to "unforeseen circumstances." No further details were provided about the nature of these circumstances or whether the shows might be rescheduled for a later date.
Fan Reaction and Financial Fallout
Mexican devotees of the singer have expressed widespread disappointment and frustration across social media platforms. Many had purchased tickets months in advance and made extensive travel arrangements to see the legendary performer.
The cancellation represents another chapter in Morrissey's complicated relationship with live performances. Throughout his solo career, the singer has developed a reputation for last-minute cancellations and unpredictable behaviour, though the frequency has notably increased in recent years.
A Pattern of Performance Issues
This isn't the first time Morrissey has cancelled Latin American performances. The singer has previously called off shows in the region, including dates in Peru and Chile, often with little warning or detailed explanation.
Ticket holders are advised to contact their point of purchase for refund information. Organisers have confirmed that full refunds will be available, though the process may take several weeks to complete.
The music industry has taken note of Morrissey's increasingly unreliable track record, with some promoters becoming hesitant to book the artist despite his enduring cult following. This latest cancellation will likely further complicate future touring plans for the enigmatic singer.
