Morrissey Walks Out Of Liverpool Gig After Being Hit By Drink

Morrissey abandoned a gig in Liverpool on Saturday after he was hit on the head by a drink.

The former Smiths star was just two songs into his set at the Echo Arena when the incident happened.

According to the Liverpool Daily Post, the missile, a half full plastic pint glass, was thrown from the audience.

Morrissey, who was performing ‘Black Cloud’ at the time, walked from the stage, followed by his band.

After a 25-minute delay a member of the singer’s road crew announced that the show had been abandoned.

The incident marks a sour end to what has been a troubled UK tour for the star, who collapsed on stage during a gig in Swindon last month.

Morrissey is scheduled to begin dates in continental Europe in Holland on Monday.
