First Johnny forms a group with Bernard Sumner. Now another former Smith, Andy Rourke will be joining to form a band with another former New Order member, Peter Hook.

The new band also consists of musicians from The Charlatans', Stone Roses, and Primal Scream.

They've had to get guest vocalists in. They had a singer lined up, were just about to go into the studio and he did a runner. Now no-one can find him!

...but I really wish him all the best and I hope that if they pull through with it, it sorts his living situation out so he doesn't have to do pub dj sets for a fiver anymore.
