Morrissey has cancelled tour stops in Detroit, Cleveland, Chicago and Texas. Tickets purchased online or by phone will be automatically refunded to your credit card.

Originally, the singer had rescheduled his Nov. 27 concert in Chicago to Dec. 10.

The Morrissey concert scheduled for Sunday at the Aragon Ballroom is now postponed till Dec. 10 due to “the illness of a member of the Morrissey touring party — whose full recovery is expected shortly” according to the official statement released tonight.

A scheduled concert in El Paso, Texas, on Nov. 23 has also been cancelled. Morrissey also has a show scheduled on Nov. 25 in Cleveland; tickets for that show were still on sale at ticketmaster.com as of this writing.

Show time for the Dec. 10 show is 7:30 p.m. Tickets for the Nov 27 show will be honored. Additional tickets ($65) for the Dec. 10 go on sale Nov 23 at ticketmaster.com.
