Eli "Paperboy" Reed and the True Loves were scheduled to open for Morrissey on his US tour including the show at DPAC on March 11. In true Morrissey fashion, he's changed his mind after seeing Eli Reed play a show in London. Yeesh. That's pretty harsh Morrissey.So Moz has now chosen Los Angeles band Red Cortez (formerly known as The Weather Underground) to open the show. Hopefully, he's already seen them so he doesn't change his mind again. They will open the shows from February 28 and to March 17. Check out the band's Daytrotter session here when they were still Weather Underground.
If you still want to see Eli "Paperboy" Reed, he's playing the Cat's Cradle on March 14 at the Woods Charter School Benefit show. Great Big Gone and Lynn Blakely & Ecki Heins will also play the show. Tickets are available for $10 via etix.com.
