Former Smiths frontman Morrissey was hospitalized for respiratory problems this weekend after collapsing on stage at a concert in Swindon, outside London.
British singer Morrissey collapses on stage during a concert…
The former Smiths frontman shocked fans when he fell to his knees at the very start of his show Saturday night in Swindon, west of London.
A concert goer tells sky news online, “you could tell that he was straining with the vocals and then he just started to look really ill. He stumbled and appeared to collapse on the stage. The other band members rushed to his side and helped him off stage. The crowd didn't really know what was going on until someone came on and said ‘Morrissey has left the building'. We were then told that Morrissey was seriously ill and wouldn't be coming back.”
Morrissey was reportedly treated at the scene for respiratory problems and then taken to a hospital as a precaution. He was released the next day.
I was at the gig. You can see me at the front of the sky news footage. Wow, fame! Ho ho. What a week. I see my hero collapse in front of me, but on the up side at least i know where Swindon is now.

Well done. Now the Yankees will think that Manchester, Lancaster and Bremen (guess you mean “Bremen in Deutschland, can’t imagine that there’s a place called Bremen in England ! :D) are all suburbs of London…

Well, Swindon isn’t as memorable as Maidstone or Grimsby.
