Moz: “I’m not to blame for festival cancellation”
The star drops Isle Of Wight headline slot but insists it’s his record company’s fault

The cancellation of Morrissey’s appearance at the Nokia Isle Of Wight festival has thrown his entire career into confusion.

You e-mail Morrissey as well, don't you?
When I made the documentary Chavs, we had to get permission to put one of Morrissey's songs in it. I e-mailed his manager and Morrissey ended up e-mailing me back. We used to know each other years ago but fell out horribly when he paid me a visit I didn't want. It must have been 15 years ago and I'd just discovered The Smiths and it got back to EMI that I was writing this big think piece about The Smiths. This was during the period when Morrissey was in a phase of paying unannounced visits to people. He came to see me after I'd been up for three nights and it didn't go down the right way. I really admire him but within 20 minutes of meeting him we were fighting like a married couple in a sitcom and I ended up shoving him out of the door. It was years ago now, so it's water under the bridge. I still think he's a genius of course but you don't want a genius living next door to you, do you?
