Xfm Meets Johnny Marr - XFM Plus (free registration required)

It's an interview with Marr about the Smiths, the current state of the band's relationships and his new band Modest Mouse

Excerpt:

And finally Clint spoke to Johnny about The Smiths. Despite various court cases and acrimony, Marr explained that first and foremost some members of The Smiths were friends before they were a band

"At the moment I don't think things are getting better from what I've seen, I'm not talking about myself because I've a not-too-bothered stance, but there are battles still going on..."

    How many times do we need to hear this? (Score:0)
    How many articles can Johnny Marr fill with his bullshit about how it's nothing to do with me guv, it's all the others that have the problem.

    Yes, that's why he banned Mike Joyce from a charity concert isn't it?

    The good guy facade insults our intelligence.

      Swallowneck is also bored with hearing regurgitated views from Mr Marr regarding his perception of the Smiths' legacy... afterall, he has many C90 cassettes in the velvet vaults of spicey Johnny chat dating back to 1984...

      He would much rather hear Marr talk about the impending appearance of White Dice demos on Ebay one fine day soon!

        Marr on Channel 4 tonight (Score:1)
        A friend told me that earlier this evening, Channel 4 news ran an item about Marr's career including some recent comments from him. Apparently it lasted about 10 minutes. Anyone else catch that?

        Joyce you're an insecure fool, why you didn't speak yourself when you were in the Smiths not 20 years later
