It's the return of the famous international playboy! Morrissey will bring panic to the streets of ... well ... Albuquerque when he returns to the U.S. for his first tour since February 2000.
Morrissey's jaunt includes 13 U.S. dates, the bulk of which are out West, including such far away places as Anchorage, Alaska. Zoloft's unofficial poster boy will be joined by Mexican prog-Latino band Jaguares for the last three U.S. dates.
Fans are likely to hear new Morrissey material from his as-yet-untitled new album as well as old standards. EMI released the second half of a two-CD Morrissey singles anthology last year, but the former Smith is currently shopping for a label deal.
