The day after the release of the album The Queen is dead, the Smiths were preparing for a 27 date American tour and assumed that Andy Rourke's drug conviction would scupper his chances of a visa. The band drafted in Guy Pratt and Rourke taught him his parts. He had a pony tail, " said Rourke. "I remember Morrissey saying, "sorry, I'm not going on stage with anyone with a pony tail." So he had all his hair chopped off, bless him. Then my visa came through."
