Morrissey Cancels Colorado Show After Keyboardist Collapses
By Jazz Monroe.
Last night, Morrissey canceled a sold-out show in Boulder, Colorado at the last hour, after keyboardist Gustavo Manzur collapsed backstage, Denver Post’s the Know reports. Morrissey came out 15 minutes after his scheduled stage time to notify the Boulder Theater crowd. “This is a family, we stay together, and we can’t move until we know what’s happened to him,” he said, according to the Know. “We’re going to sit backstage for awhile and wait to see what’s happened to him, if there’s any magical cure.” After another 20 minutes, guitarist Jesse Tobias informed the crowd Manzur had not recovered and the show was canceled.
