Musician Morrissey has cancelled plans for a show at Harpa Concert Hall in Reykjavík. The reason for this? Restaurants located in the building refused to stop selling meat at the night of the show.
I love Iceland and I have waited a long time to return, but I shall leave the Harpa Concert Hall to their cannibalistic flesh-eating bloodlust … Morrissey wrote on his website.
According to the Canadian music website Exclaim the show had not actually been booked yet, but the artist was trying to arrange a date at the concert hall.
Morrissey became a vegetarian at the age of 11 and is very adamant that only vegetarian food be served at venues on the night of his shows. The artist once said that eating meat was the ‘most disgusting thing’ he could think of and compared it to biting into ones grandmother.
