Morrissey is blaming his hotel for being an “indescribable hell” due to the music from a festival happening next door.
The music artist warned fans of the possibility of a cancellation in a post on his blog before the show.

The blog posted on Thursday, “Having travelled for two days by road, Morrissey reached the hotel in Valencia late on Wednesday. Any form of sleep or rest throughout the night was impossible due to festival noise / loud techno singing / megaphone announcements. This experience has left Morrissey in a catatonic state. Before leaving for tonight’s scheduled concert, please check that the show remains possible under these circumstances.”
Later on, the blog revealed the show would not be happening.
“Tonight’s scheduled show in Valencia has been rendered impossible due to sleep deprivation. Morrissey drove from Milan to Valencia but has been unable to rest in Valencia due to noise. The show is not cancelled. Circumstances render the show impossible,” the blog shared.
A third update noted, “Morrissey has described his hotel on Plaza Manises as ‘indescribable hell. It will take me one year to recover. And that is an understatement.’”
Morrissey is best known for being the frontman of the band The Smiths.
