Talking of the Benicassim festival, Morrissey was forced to cancel his set at the Spanish music fest because of technical difficulties with the aeroplane that was meant to take him there. Moz was due on stage at 9.20pm on Saturday (7 Aug) but had to call the festival organisers to tell them he wouldn't be able to make it.
A spokeperson for Moz told reporters "Due to a technical problem with our airplane on Saturday, we were forced to return to London rather than continue on our way to Spain. We offered to play on Sunday and had booked other flights, but the festival was unable to accommodate us - thus we were forced not to play. Morrissey and the band were very much looking forward to playing at Benicassim, and will return to Spain as soon as new dates can be arranged."
