Morrissey<\/a> has canceled another show. This wouldn\u2019t be news on its own\u2014his 24% cancellation rate, and the website<\/a> dedicated to tracking every concert he bails on, speaks for itself\u2014if it weren\u2019t for the reasoning behind it: Morrissey was too sleepy.<\/p>\n

The Make-Up Is a Lie<\/a> singer left tonight\u2019s crowd at Palau Des Les Arts in Valencia, Spain, confused after a series of erratic updates on his website. The first post<\/a> claimed Morrissey arrived late to his hotel in Valencia due to traveling for two days \u201cby road.\u201d Once there, \u201cAny form of sleep or rest throughout the night was impossible due to festival noise \/ loud techno singing \/ megaphone announcements\u201d that left Morrissey \u201cin a catatonic state.\u201d<\/p>\n

A second post<\/a> on Morrissey\u2019s website claimed that the scheduled show in Valencia had been \u201crendered impossible due to sleep deprivation.\u201d However, bolded text emphasized that the concert was actually not canceled, but rather \u201ccircumstances render the show impossible.\u201d<\/p>\n

Morrissey then took to his website to make a third post<\/a> that would clear up the scenario. He called the Valencia hotel \u201cindescribable hell.\u201d He added, \u201cIt will take me one year to recover. And that is an understatement.\u201d<\/p>\n

This was the seventh concert that Morrissey canceled so far this year, disappointing fans who gambled on him performing as promised in San Diego, St. Louis, Atlanta, and elsewhere. He\u2019s currently touring in support of his new album, Make-Up Is a Lie. Buy tickets to those shows at your own risk.<\/p>\n
