@SileCitizen ...looks like possibly, especially since appears white around his eyes. Johnny, you need no improving. Love the fair skin/dark hair combo. <3
Butler was in a TV programme some time ago - aghast that he saw "How Soon Is Now" as a youth, and thought that it was "sickening" or similar words that he, with his given talent (which he has), had somehow, with that one, the best song ever, was taken from him.
As if he exists in the same district. Johnny, mate, you are the man. I can see by your face: music speaks louder than words. Thanks for posting. I love suede, but perspective, eh? T.
Johnny Marr is aging so much better than his Smiths band mates. He is also better looking than the rest of them as well. He is also a fantastic guitarist that I truly believe ranks up there with Clapton, Page and Robert Fripp. As far as The Smiths go, I know time will show the reformation of Morrissey and Marr. If they are smart they will join forces with Andy Rourke and Mike Joyce as well. All bands reform in time. If not for the money, for the fans. Way to go Johnny, you deserve it! Boston
Marr said that if they'd reform, they would certainly write new songs, otherwise it would be just useless. The problem is, though, that Marr is currently writing and playing songs that he believes in, so he won't reform right now.
The Smiths were my favorite during the 80's...Suede were my favorite during the 90's....it's a nice tribute to watch these two legend guitarist....and JM gave Bernard one of his guitars...how sweet is that for Bernard...to receive a guitar form his biggest inspiration Johnny Marr..
great interview with two geniuses. great guitarists of the 80s and 90s. i love the mutual respect and the good friendship they seem to have. nice guys with it.
I love Bernard because of his guitar playing and song-writing, and I love Johnny through Bernard's introduction 'coz he always said Johnny was his inspiration of learning guitar. What a fantastic experience!
I should write something but in their world : guitar players, nothing is rational what I can say at least is that for some persons music is like breathing :-) even if Bernard can't stand this truth since Nov 1993 I'm not alone these days:-P

Johnny Marr is turning into Al Pacino, circa Scarface. The similarity is striking.

Haha, on Johnny Marr's myspace there's a photo where Johnny is impersonating a classic 'Scarface' pose for a 'Stop Gun Running'-campaign.

Bernard is a fantastic guitar player/songwriter. You can easily tell how much he´s been inspired by Marr on his compositions.
An Marr, well, he´s simply the ´God of guitar players.
