Johnny Marr on KCRW

Johnny aussi

Not to be outdone by his frenemy Morrissey, former Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr has an autobiography in the works, too. Marr—who put out his first solo album this year—recently told Brooklyn Vegan: 

There is gonna be one, yeah. I've had so many offers and so many people advising me that my story is worth it, but I understand it's something that I have to do. I'll do it in the next couple of years. I'm into from the stance that I want it to be so thorough that I don't make a record or tour whilst I was doing it. It is gonna happen, and I've already made an agreement with a publisher for it, so I will get it done.

Johnny Marr : “la vie n'a pas besoin que les Smiths se reforment”

« Les fans espèrent qu'il y aura un happy end. Mais moi, je suis heureux. Tout va bien. C'est assez difficile d'assumer d'entendre que des gens disent que leur vie ne sera accomplie que quand un groupe vieux de vingt-cinq ans se reformera ».
 « La vie n'a pas besoin que certaines choses arrivent pour être gérable », a-t-il expliqué au NME. Si les fans ont besoin de quelque chose de positif, qu'ils aillent voir le Dalaï Lama plutôt que d'espérer un concert des Smiths ».
