Morrissey Announces Intimate Show Wednesday in L.A. Tickets On Sale at Noon Tuesday
Morrissey (via Facebook)
Did you miss out on getting tickets to Morrissey'ssold-out show at the Shrine Auditorium on Saturday? You have not missed your chance to see the legendary British alt-rock god play live in L.A. Morrissey has announced very intimate performance on Wednesday, November 23 at the Henry Fonda, and tickets will be on sale at the venue box office only starting at Noon on Tuesday, November 22.
The all ages show has a two-tickets-per-person cap, and all sales are cash only. Ticket holders will need to return the day of the show to pick up their tickets from the Henry Fonda box office. Tickets are $75 each.
Okay, all those details aside: Z0MG Morrissey! In a small venue! This is a pretty sweet opportunity, so start thinking of reasons why you need to take some cash out of the bank account and an extra-long lunch tomorrow so you can queue up to get your hands on those coveted tickets.
The melancholy crooner is staying in the SoCal area, and will make an appearance on the Conan show on November 29.
To get you in the mood, here is Morrissey performing "Everyday is Like Sunday" during his "residency" at the Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson a few months ago:
