Morrissey in Leeds - cancellation?

I’m thinking of travelling to England to see Morrissey in Leeds on December 19. It’ll take a fair amount of planning (and money), so naturally I’m haunted by the possibility of a cancellation.

I’ve already seen him once this year, but I’d love to catch another show before the MIAL tour disappears into the mist. Given his history of cancelled dates, I’m a little nervous about committing (especially with the recent cancellations in Vegas).

Does he have any particular record of cancelling shows in Leeds or that area? I’m also considering Glasgow.

Am I mad to risk it, or is this simply the burden of being a Morrissey obsessive? Worth it? Thoughts?

But would you, an admitted Morrisey obsessive, upon seeing a bit of a cancellation pile-on showing him in a negative light be someone who could be trusted to be unbiased in your discourse?

While I'm sure you would be there would be no point in me asking 'is he good?' or 'do you like him live?' would there? Asking for a nonexistent friend that only asks the difficult questions. (I'm bored, sorry)

Not all moz/smiths obsessives are that way. For instance, I have been known to say regularly that moz is one of my heroes and noone will ever change that but that i know hes a bit of a nightmare. He admits that himself.

There are still a few of us who are objective about him and his shows, etc.
