Much like one of his melancholy pop tunes, Morrissey's summer tour was wrought with misfortune after a viral infection forced him to cancel several U.S. dates. But Moz's recently announced fall tour dates are designed to ironically turn the frowns of his disappointed fans upside down.

Starting September 20, Morrissey will embark on a 30-date U.S. tour that -- unlike his arena-heavy summer schedule -- will feature dates at smaller club venues, giving many more fans the ability to tackle him onstage when he does Smiths covers. The tour also boasts a 10-day stretch at the Hollywood Palladium (which will serve as the legendary venue's final shows ever) and a five-night stint at New York's Hammerstein Ballroom. Superfans will have the opportunity to buy blocks of tickets for all Palladium and Hammerstein shows at a discount price.

But that's where the good fortune ends for still those still holding out for a Smiths reunion. Despite the success of recently reformed '80s bands like the Police, Morrissey reportedly turned down $75 million to reunite with long-lost partner Johnny Marr for a 50-city tour. Like he's been saying for two decades, some dreams just aren't meant to come true.
