I was on the Gibson Guitars site and came across a blog entry from 4/5/07. I had to investigate when i noticed the title said "Play Me Some Morrisssey".

Pictured is Alain Whyte playing the Nick Valensi (The Strokes) model Epiphone guitar at the Bevery Hills Gibson showroom. According to the blog he's in town doing some sessions for morrissey?

        If all of Morrissey's musicians past and present (except The Smiths) were all asked to stand in line and Swallowneck had to de-flower each and every last one of them in order of his personal preference, Alain Whyte would be the last one to receive tender Swallowneck kisses and massages!!!

        Not being a musician... (Score:1)
        ...what does this exactly mean? Why is he borrowing a guitar? Doesn't he have his own, presumably more than one? Does this guitar have a sound that is paricularly different, and if so, is that a hint as to the type of song that may be played?

        So says Alain, anyway.

        Let's all hope Jesse isn't invited.

            All the negative comments about ROTT lately are boring the s*it out of me. Alain wrote one of Morrissey's best solo songs Ever with "Life is a Pigsty". "Dear God..." is also a beautiful track.

            Alain's apparently very confident about his new songs -- can't wait to hear them!
