Does Morrissey ever do an official statement when a band member leaves?They don't seem to do official statements. It's all quite personal, random or in extremis.
Such a statement wouldn’t be about Moz in some way, directly and indirectly, and that’s a hard ‘no’ for a post on Central!I find it so completely odd that there was no announcement on Moz Central when Boz stopped working with Morrissey, especially if it was amicable.
Even a "Boz is stepping back from the band to spend more time at home, Morrissey wishes to sincerely thank Boz for the last 30 years" sort of thing.
I'm sure Morrissey was very nice to him in private when they went their separate ways, but at the same time he knows he has a devoted fanbase who have watched him and Boz share a stage for three decades, and yet all of a sudden a Morrissey gig takes place with no Boz and no announcement regarding it. And that was that, no Boz anymore.
Has Boz gone on record (e.g. on social media) to give his reasons for not being with Morrissey anymore? I can't recall seeing anything from him regarding this. It just seems to be speculation from people on here that retirement was the reason.

Morrissey only cares to write orbituaries.

And bad for Morrissey’s public image.He doesn't do any of the normal band things.
It's only bad because it creates a space for speculation or false information.
Morrissey is extremely bad a paying and Boz, although extremely loyal was used by Moz and not paid for a lot of his work and performances. Boz just had enoughI find it so completely odd that there was no announcement on Moz Central when Boz stopped working with Morrissey, especially if it was amicable.

Going to need a source for that.Morrissey is extremely bad a paying and Boz, although extremely loyal was used by Moz and not paid for a lot of his work and performances. Boz just had enough
Someone pretty close to Boz once told me that Boz was asked to leave because he no longer fit the physical image of what a Morrissey band member was supposed to look like...I just meant he’s left the band. We know why Alain and Gus left, but there’s been no word on why Boz left.

Nice try.Someone pretty close to Boz once told me that Boz was asked to leave because he no longer fit the physical image of what a Morrissey band member was supposed to look like...

lol , yes he’s tightness is legendary.Morrissey is extremely bad a paying and Boz, although extremely loyal was used by Moz and not paid for a lot of his work and performances. Boz just had enough
lolNeither does Morrissey to be fair. I hope that's not true.
He was . He is the closest M had to a new Johnny Marr figure, someone to write . Look after him and sort things out . Like Johnny Boz is a well know gent about town too . I didn’t fecking know how much I missed boz until I read thisGreat interview! Boz is the man!!!! What a musical legacy the guy has.
Morrissey was lucky to work with him for so long - as Boz was indeed the reliable and talented person who kept this brand in motion, greatly supporting Morrissey.
Morrissey has never made an announcement of anyone leaving. The only departures he ever mentions are of those of this mortal coil.I find it so completely odd that there was no announcement on Moz Central when Boz stopped working with Morrissey, especially if it was amicable.
