Now 3 days til it all gets rolling again+though I'm looking forward to the gigs I attend in may /june
But one thing strike me this time and worries me a bit
: 1.the this time very long tour plan with many many dates
and 2. with rarely any big breaks.
6 weeks america , 10 days break,,, then europe
a lot of you experience him getting ill on tour over the last centuries as well.
.if you look back into he tour history
all facts that you have read about or experience yourself but nonetheless I do bring them up as examples to make my point:
two prominent examples here during his solo tours :
he did fall ill several times in australia 1991
after having completed the first leg of the long Us tour and 5 japan dates behind him..
also falling ill on the 2nd US leg of 91
so him falling ill has to do with long tours and not with his age- a friend of mine has argued when i told her about the roundhouse cancellation-she knows not much about him. I strongly disagreed about that point ...
cancellations cause of illness did also happen back during the smiths as well when one looks into the tour history
then him falling ill l on the VERY extensive US 2007 tour(first half)
and again in early 2008 in the UK
(which i think was result of having not enough time to recovering his voice long enough after a long tour)
As a tour manager of morrissey; this person should take a different approach : instead of doing a tour in a a big continent, like FOR EXAMPLE: america with many many dates in a short timeperiod and have not enough offdays/breaks within
BUT HE RATHER SHOULD SPLIT THE TOUR IN SEVERAL SMALL HALVES AND HAVE MORE AND LONGER BREAKS to avoid cancellations. and disapointments
..like for the quarry tour :
where he only did a few warm US Dates in spring
then had a break ,do a bit of UK/ europe and then did go back to the US in fall doing more dates there ....
To go back to the example of America
Its not only the size of North America I think, but one important fact is travelling and experience the changing of different climate periods in a short period of time..from florida to ny etc etc this can harm your organism/made an impact on your health state.
Yes that all goes without saying,nothing new and Im not stating in any way he should tour the US on a lesser degree, so dont get that the wrong way over there, ,will you?
its an example.Whne it comes to sizes like US, he should rather not trying to tour the country in one run all at once, doing as many dates as possible in a short time perios but rather split, but I repeat myself here
But it goes without saying as a fan you dont want the artist to fall ill during a tour , not onyl because of YOU not being able to see the tour
but most importantly that the artist himself NOT RUINING HIS HEALTH IN A SERIOUS DEGREE cause of touring extensively touring and without enough breaks
which could eventually lead to a possible chronic damagement of his voice for example
or just a complete exhaustion which nobody dont want him to experience as well...
so to avoid that:
the tour manager REALLY should have been aware of his often delicate health , should have take more breaks and should have spiltted the tours in more halves
and not planning a long tour in the way it has been arranged this time .
.I personally would have prefered waiting longer to see him
but then experience him fresh and recovered.
But there is nothing much to do about that as a fan than just hoping it will went well.
I am not the first one worrying about the extensive tour plan..
i have read a few posts of other people the last months who have posted their fears of possible cancalletions after seeing the tourplan
....some of them have seen him many times
but like I said being a fan you dont have a say really....
Have you been surpised by th extensive tour plan?
why is the tour manager not aware of the past tours and the cancelltations?
so to come to the end of my rant
I just wish you all a wonderful and memorable concert and have fun...
