Lots of Morrissey drama popping up as of late. The latest is that he was performing only his 2nd song in Liverpool, UK when some ass clown threw his glass bottle at Morrissey. Not sure what’s true or not, but some reports are saying the glass bottle hit his head. Morrissey said goodbye to the crowd and left. The audience got a full refund, just because of one drunken angry idiot throwing something. Why go to a show when you’re not going to like the singer, who’s freakin’ headlining? I don’t get people sometimes. But doesn’t excuse Morrissey for being a drama queen and leaving the rest of the crowd out to dry. Read the full account over at NME.

Morrissey collapsed at a concert last night in Swindon, UK. He was performing the song “This Charming Man” when he fell to his knees with breathing difficulties. His band’s members took him off stage and an ambulance took him to the Hospital, where he’s in “stable” condition. The audience wasn’t really aware how bad his condition was because they were getting pissed and booing. Morrissey has canceled tours because of illness in recent months, so perhaps they just thought he was being over dramatic? Who knows but get well Moz!
