There were some lights that definitely went out at the Morrissey show up in San Jose last night. Unfortunately, they belonged Morrissey. The 54 year-old singer was tackled mercilessly by a fan (or three?) on stage at the City National Civic. Two songs into the second encore, any security guards were in charge of the front barrier were rendered helpless as dozens of fans began rushing the stage to give the singer a parting hug at the end of the show. It seemed to start out innocent enough, but as you'll see in the fan video posted below, things got ugly really quick. After thwarting a couple creepy attempts by fans to mount him like a steed, someone broke through and took Moz to the ground, causing the band to stop playing as boos roared through the crowd. What a way to start the U.S. tour! Moz' new album, World Peace is None of Your Business, is slated for release in July. Hopefully he's okay, but as of now there's no official word on how bad his physical condition might be.
