The promoters of Morrissey's abandoned Liverpool Echo Arena gig are hoping to restage the show.

Morrissey, of course, walked off stage just two songs into his set on Saturday night after he was hit on the head by a plastic drink cup.

The 'Promoter Statement' claims that organisers are “exploring all ways of restaging the abandoned concert.”

It goes on to apologise to disappointed fans who attended the concert and criticise the individual who "spoiled the evening."

It reads:

Event organisers are working with the artistes representatives to explore all ways of restaging the abandoned concert. Everyone involved in the show is deeply upset that the actions of one individual have spoiled the evening for the thousands of genuine fans and for Morrissey himself.

In the event this cannot be rearranged due to scheduling problems a full refund will be offered to all customers who purchased tickets from the authorised outlets. Organisers appreciate your patience while we work to try and resolve.

Information regarding refund process and / or any new date will be posted on venue website / www.gigsandtours.com and notified directly to customers where possible by email.

thank you
