Morrissey Makes Festival Go Vegan

Morrissey Makes Festival Go Vegan

It’s all about saving the animals ego.

Morrissey’s appearance at a Belgian festival has prompted organisers to instigate the event’s first-ever meat-free day.

The Lokerse Feesten, which usually serves up yummy dishes as horse sausages and snails, will adopt a vegetarian stance on Aug. 4 to aviod making the former Smiths front man mad.

What’s that you say? Omnivores really make him mad?

Apparently so. During the singer’s 2009 Coachella set the outspoken vegetarian stormed off stage after “smelling cooked meat in the air.”

A statement on the festival’s official website reads,

“The Lokerse Feesten have had their eye on Morrissey for a very long time. For this edition we finally managed to get him over and we are very pleased about this. Further to that, the addition of Morrissey to the line-up meant a welcomed catering challenge for one day.”

We aprove of the veggie challenge, but not the divatood.
