The kickoff of Morrissey's first tour of Canada in almost 20 years has been delayed.
According to the statement provided by the hosting venues and Ticketmaster, the postponement is due to "a medical emergency stemming from an accident incurred while traveling in Europe."
It's unclear whether the accident involves Morrissey or a member of his band, and so far Morrissey's official website has not posted a statement regarding the situation, however Morrissey's official website has published the October makeup dates on the tour itinerary page.
The shows in Vancouver and Edmonton have been rescheduled for October, and it's expected more rescheduled dates (or cancellations) will be announced shortly -- the Ticketmaster information sent to fans indicates the tour will resume on April 26th in Toronto.
Hope Moz and/or his band is on the mend and recuperating.
UPDATE: Calgary show has been rescheduled for October 11th + Winnipeg moved to October 21st.
