Morrissey Questioned Entering The USA

Sat, 07 Mar 2009 09:40:22 +1100

Former Smiths star Morrissey was questioned by US Customs when he entered the United States this week.

Morrissey is in America for the start of his world tour.

The former Smiths frontman was hedl by officials as he arrived at Atlanta airport for the US leg which starts tonight.

The singer, who cancelled the first dates last week due to illness, said that he had to overcome one more hurdle to kick off the jaunt.

Writing a blog for his MySpace page, he said: "I have survived the interrogation of Atlanta's immigration officials and Myrtle Beach shall have me tomorrow nite (Friday), and the world from then onwards ... if the world can take it.

"One of the many penalties of being human is that tours often take a military push to start, well, all of our answers will be in our songs tomorrow night.

"The bloodbath starts at 7.30. Life is testing you out. Be ready for anything."

The tour, in support of Morrissey's new album 'Years Of Refusal', will hit states across the US and includes a stop at California's Coachella Festival on April 17 before continuing in Ireland on April 28.
