The book’s title is being kept under wraps, but Marr promises: “It absolutely won’t be This Charming Marr, Isn’t It Marrvelous or any pun like that. I’ve been looking at those headlines all my adult life, thanks very much.”

Break from music? Has he done anything worthwhile since the Smiths?
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

he once did an album with that bloke who used to be echo and the bunnymen. That was reportedly so good they refused to release it and left it in a van in liverpool.

If I was vegan I'm sure I'd be bloody running regularly as well. :redface:

You're thinking of Alain Whyte.

saw him on Saturday night at butlins, with his little red coat on. was very good. Bit of a show off but then that's generally to be expected I suppose. and when he clicked the 'how soon is now' button on his stomp box we all thought he was really good. Here he is chattering a bit:

The all important reunion question is batted away towards the end.

Also saw him in July this year
thought it was a great set
from memory he played 4 smiths songs as well as Electronics getting away with it
along with his own stuff
saying" no beards or hipsters allowed" at his show
one of the stand out sets of the festival

I see I'm going to need to provide photographic proof at future shows that I've been in possession of a beard for at least 12 years and therefore do not qualify as a hipster. The only reason my pants are a little tight is gnomes came into my closet and slowly shrunk everything over the years.
