A ruptured water pipe has forced the postponment of the Morrissey shows scheduled for tonight and Thursday at the Hollywood Palladium. Tickets for the Oct. 2 and Oct. 4 shows will be honored at the door at either the Oct. 8 or Oct. 9 performances. Refunds are available at point of purchase. The Palladium shows resume Friday.
Add one more thing to that list of renovations.

Morrissey will start recording a new album in November for a  2008 release.
He told the  BBC News, "the plan is to make a new album after this tour (which ends Nov. 8 in Miami). It's absolutely written and completely ready."
The singer, a free agent, has not yet decided on a label though an offer from Warners is reportedly on the table. His last two albums were on Sanctuary Records; his deal there expired and the label is defunct.
NME has the story.
