==Touring and promotion==
''Morning View'' boasted a total of four [[single (music)|singles]] beginning with "[[Wish You Were Here (Incubus song)|Wish You Were Here]]". The song was released on August 14, 2001, charting well and gaining significant rotation.<ref name="wywhrel"/> In the original banned video for "Wish You Were Here", Incubus are getting chased by a large pack of female fans, and eventually jump off a bridge. According to Boyd, the video was inspired by a scene in the 1968 film ''[[Head (film)|Head]]'', which starred American band [[The Monkees]].<ref name="wish"/> An alternative music video would end up being made for the song shortly afterwards, as the original version was deemed to be mirroring the [[September 11, 2001 attacks|September 11 attacks]].<ref name="wish"/> The alternative version depicted the band playing in a studio against a white backdrop, interspersed with home movies they had made.<ref name="wish">{{Cite web|url=https://www.mtv.com/news/iennc9/incubus-release-banned-video-prepare-for-next-band-video|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231114134534/https://www.mtv.com/news/iennc9/incubus-release-banned-video-prepare-for-next-band-video|url-status=dead|archive-date=November 14, 2023|title=Incubus Release Banned Video, Prepare For Next Band Video|website=MTV}}</ref>

The follow up singles "[[Nice to Know You]]" and "[[Warning (Incubus song)|Warning]]" both gained substantial airplay as well. The video for "Nice to Know You" was shot on November 28, 2001 in
[[San Diego]] at the [[University of California, San Diego|UCSD]]'s [[RIMAC|Rimac Arena]].<ref name="wish"/> The final single "[[Are You In?]]" had a video exclusive to Europe due to its sensual nature and gained little attention compared to its predecessors.

Once they had finished recording their new album in 2001, Incubus began touring with [[Hundred Reasons]] in Europe from June until the first week of July. They were also invited to play [[Moby]]'s [[Area Festival|Area:One Festival]] alongside the likes of [[Outkast]], [[The Roots]], [[Paul Oakenfold]], [[Carl Cox]], and [[Nelly Furtado]]. In August, the band performed their first shows in Australia, New Zealand and Japan. Amidst touring, Incubus was still experiencing commercial milestones for ''Make Yourself'', and they continued to headline throughout the remainder of the year. They were one of the first bands to play in [[New York City]] following the September 11 attacks, with the event not affecting the band's touring schedule. DJ [[Chris Kilmore]] told ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' in November 2001, "we’re taking the stand that we’re not going to let some idiot who just wants to kill everybody affect our lives. We’re just going to keep doing what we do, and hopefully, everything will be alright."<ref>{{cite magazine | url=https://www.billboard.com/music/music-news/incubus-bucks-nu-metal-with-new-single-77740/ | title=Incubus Bucks Nu-Metal with New Single | magazine=[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]] | access-date=June 3, 2022 | archive-date=June 3, 2022 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220603182932/https://www.billboard.com/music/music-news/incubus-bucks-nu-metal-with-new-single-77740/ | url-status=live }}</ref>

Incubus embarked on an American headlining tour on August 31, 2002, supported by Thirty Seconds to Mars. Their last concert during the ''Morning View'' touring cycle took place on November 2, 2002. The band took a break from touring and releasing music following this, and their next concerts would be at the [[Lollapalooza]] Festival in July 2003. Einziger told MTV in 2002, "we kind of had a seamless transition from our last record to our newest record, and we think maybe that this time around we should disappear for a little while." Boyd added in the same interview, "I think we're all getting sick of ourselves, so we need to run away, but we'll run away together 'cause we can't stay away from each other. Probably go and hang out in some place tropical, hopefully."<ref name="in">{{Cite web|url=https://www.mtv.com/news/po6cn6/incubus-shoot-best-video-to-date-and-you-may-never-see-it|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231114012755/https://www.mtv.com/news/po6cn6/incubus-shoot-best-video-to-date-and-you-may-never-see-it|url-status=dead|archive-date=November 14, 2023|title=Incubus Shoot 'Best Video To Date,' And You May Never See It|website=MTV}}</ref> Bassist Alex Katunich was asked to leave the band in October 2002, reportedly over personal and creative differences.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://jenny4apenny.tripod.com/jeniscrazydidyouknow/id7.html|title=Have You Heard About INCUBUS?|website=jenny4apenny.tripod.com}}</ref> His departure was announced to the media through a statement from Brandon Boyd in April 2003, with no official reason being given;<ref>{{Cite magazine|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/incubus-replace-bassist-245222/|title=Incubus Replace Bassist|first=Andrew|last=Dansby|magazine=[[Rolling Stone]] |date=April 4, 2003}}</ref><ref>{{Cite magazine|url=https://www.billboard.com/music/music-news/update-incubus-bassist-out-of-band-71676/|title=Update: Incubus Bassist Out Of Band|author=Billboard Staff|magazine=[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]] |date=April 4, 2003}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.blabbermouth.net/news/incubus-part-ways-with-bassist/|title=INCUBUS Part Ways With Bassist|date=April 4, 2003|website=Blabbermouth.net}}</ref> He was replaced by [[Ben Kenney]] of [[The Roots|the Roots]].
